Stat of the day:

US deaths from over-heating / heat exposure per year - approx 1300

European deaths from over-heating / heat expoaure per year - approx 175,000

It’s a huge gap and HVAC is the prime answer, and willingness to hold back HVAC to cope with climate chnage is a major driver

It’s a dilemma to be sure - interesting what options exist
