Asking people in Berlin why they don't like A/C

A/C in Germany: A “Heated” Debate 😉

[zookittie]

My entire family lives in Germany 80% of them think it makes them sick. Until they spend a summer with me in Texas - where it’s above 37C for 50 days in a row, then they understand AC, !

I live in Indonesia and using AC here is equal to heater in germany it's part of our life and we can't live without it

[AdaraFukuchi]

I live in brazil.
I dont care to live without the AC

The point is that you must not let the sunlight and the outside heat in, you need a cooler thermal wall with, for example, a wet fabric that is spread over the radiator in front of the window. Sweating can also be avoided in this way. You can save almost several thousand euros a year. Nature has a rhythm, it has always been hot, sweating is a natural thing for humans.

This is like asking you guys from the North to live without your heaters😂

"The AC makes u sick, they say, as they snort cocaine"

[samirzepeda]

It makes sense given the fact that they will never know what a true summer heat is.

Living in the valley in California (in a very poorly insulated older apartment) it's necessary to have an AC. Of course energy conservation is possible, by opening windows at night time, but there are so many blistering hot summer days here where it simply becomes too hot without ac. If I lived in a cooler city in Northern CA, like San Francisco, it would be very possible to survive without an ac. It all depends on the climate you live in.

I am from india ... moving to Germany in 2.5 months and I can't live without A/c but by the time I will reach Germany harsh winter will start so .... 🙃🙃🙃 got saved this time .... I am from the foothills of Himalaya and due to global warning this place has become so hot and I can't tolerate heat at all ....

Me: in an American house made out of paper in 43°C weather and a disability that triggers fainting in the heat 😁

I'm an Americanized German I cant give up my air conditioning. Lol. People only use it one or two months of the year so I don't think that's bad.

[xxpeterunlustigxx]

Almost nobody has an A/C in his home here in Germany

[battelbad]

Waiting for a German to go to China… AC everywhere

[foyorama]

Luckily I live in Spain and use the A/C all the time

[homosapien.a]

you can't live without air conditioning in most cities in the Middle East. people in Berlin are privileged to have a choice of not using it really.

I don't like air con at all and totally prefer a fan. But there are some days and nights during the Greek summer that people can have health issues without air con. And places like the tube, banks, malls etc would not be able to operate without it.

September 13, 2022 @ 8:00pm in both Braunfels, Germany, 19.4°C, New Braunfels, Texas, 31.6°C. We easily hit 38° C in August in Texas

[markklippenberg]

Never even saw an a/c from ‘69 -‘81, rarely hot enough at noon to need one, never at night. They wouldn’t be so keen if they lived in a warm country

[Strifehatzz]

The government is not going to tell me if I use my a/c or not!

[TheSuperfaina]

In Italy without air conditioning we die. From May to October at least it is needed.
