In a bold move, climate activists have spray-painted private jets orange in London, while a scientist calls for Americans to abandon air conditioning to combat climate change.
Climate activists have infiltrated a London airport, spray-painting two private jets orange. The group, Just Stop Oil, claims that one of the targeted aircraft belongs to singer Taylor Swift. The action aims to highlight the excessive carbon emissions associated with private aviation.
Environmental scientist Stan Cox believes that reducing air conditioning usage is crucial in combating climate change. In a New York Times op-ed, he argues that the greenhouse gases released by 90% of American households with air conditioning units contribute to global warming.

Cox describes his personal experience of living without air conditioning for 25 years during summer months. He shares practical tips to stay cool, such as using lawn sprinklers, spending time outdoors, and utilizing electric fans.
Cox emphasizes the importance of minimizing the use of appliances that generate heat, including dishwashers. Additionally, he recommends setting the refrigerator temperature to the lowest possible setting.

Cox maintains that humans can adapt to warmer temperatures through gradual exposure. He explains that research indicates that spending more time in warm or hot weather makes people feel more comfortable at previously unbearable temperatures.
While acknowledging that giving up air conditioning may seem challenging, Cox believes it is necessary to combat climate change. He highlights that reducing dependence on air conditioning becomes easier with time and adaptation.

Cox urges Americans to embrace a collective effort to reduce air conditioning usage. He emphasizes that small individual steps can have a significant cumulative impact on the fight against climate change.
The recent spray-painting of private jets and the scientist's call for air conditioning cessation underscore the urgency of addressing climate change. It is crucial that individuals and society as a whole adopt sustainable practices to mitigate the impacts of global warming.
