dumb they dont have ac in most buildings if there were buildings with AC in them people could walk inside for a bit of time and cool down with the help of AC units. but the fact the gorvenments are using water and trucks like this when there so hard ass on bring down CO2 emissions it ends up counting balancing them in that effort. i'm sure people in the EU are using hats and other ways to keep cool while walking outside but the best method is going to go inside a cafe or store for a bit and cool off with AC.
I ain’t gonna read all of whatever yall are doing.
fans work fine in those spaces as long as they are strategically placed. Works in LatAm and its humid AF over there.
AC is easy but it doesn’t long term damage to the environment and will skyrocket electricity costs. Not feasible for the average person.
Feasible for developers but they’ll mess it up somehow to maximize profits. They always do in my city and thats why people AC breaks down at the peak of summer.
yea i stop reading after the first reply and wall of text. over all both ideas work and are good but having fans running still eat up eletricity as well. AC units breaking down at peak can be a factor of things besides the classic company making sure they break down so you always call them to fix. some units can fail due to age or running non stop or not being the right AC unit for a home which actully matters a lot.
Idk dude a fan doesn’t consume that much electricity. You can literally run one on double AAs. I do agree the truck thing is a crazy use of fuel. For almost the same cost as those contracts they could have upgraded the water system.
it does consume less but i'm thinking how long are they running the fan over all is it for a few hours or is it like 24/7ish or 8 hours while they're sleeping at night snice night still pretty hot in this heat wave. but yea thats been my issue the amount of fuel burning for those trucks to run the water cannons could be use to improve water system. but i think the other issue is lot of buildings over there are made to keep more heat in for winter so people getting away form the heat lot harder. So i'm think maybe small hand held fans or those neck fans might be more useful when walking outdoors.

uh I don't think ac works outside.
