【阅读原文】 标题:Europeans should learn to love the air-conditioner
Green electricity means never having to say sorry for lowering the thermostat
正文:AMERICANS AND Europeans differ loudly on many issues, from health-care policy to gun-carrying etiquette. But a quieter division appears every summer when they visit each other’s continents. Europeans touring America complain that shops and restaurants are so frigidly air-conditioned as to require a jacket; step outside again and your glasses fog over. Yanks holidaying in Europe expect cool comfort, and grow surly on finding that many oldworld buildings require them to sweat and bear it.
