Why Britain’s New AC Mandate Is a Climate Lie You’re Being Sold
The Liberal Democrats’ proposal to mandate air conditioning in new UK homes isn’t a climate solution—it’s a political distraction. It creates a vicious feedback loop where adaptation to warming worsens the emissions driving it. This policy is less about thermal necessity and more about giving voters a shiny, consumable fix while ignoring grid capacity, insulation, and the hard work of passive cooling. The real cost? Higher bills and a deeper climate hole.
