Oh that's right, y'all got AC back there. I forgor.
I know Europe is scant on AC in general, but you guys really don't even use it in schools? That seems wild to me.
In southern Europe, yes. In northern Europe, generally no need for AC. Remember that Europe is not one country.
No AC in schools. School is out in the summer in general.
We prefer to stick our fingers in our ears, pretend climate change isn't getting worse and torture our kids and teachers instead. At least after the recent heatwave some conversations are starting to happen.
May June and September don't have the capability to have hot days in Europe? In 2010 only the newer part of my highschool had AC, but now I believe the whole building does.
Most buildings don't have them. Why would schools be any different? Our secondary school was culturally protected so even if they wanted to install one they probably could not. And the only time heat was an issue was during covid when we got assigned the attic classroom. All the other rooms were alright.
