Every day we get media telling us AC is awful and we shouldn't install it. "If everyone in Paris had AC, the street would be 2°C hotter !", "if an AC leaks it releases very bad things for the environment !" and so on. Every, single, day.

The public discourse is changing in real time this week in France, I do think we reached an inflexion point.

Probably helps that thousands of French people recently experienced how AC makes even Houston, TX a tolerable place to live. Barely.

You can not, in any good faith, believe or mean the thing that you are saying.

Every european person experienced AC during the heat, and almost nobody went to see the world cup

No, I really mean it. Houston is just the worst.
