Air conditioning hater Stan Cox should shut up this week

It’s predicted that this will be our hottest week of the year, and that is so not the time to listen to Stan Cox, America’s leading anti-air-conditioning advocate espousing his views to Steve Kraske on KCUR. He’s been all over the

media pimping his new book Losing

Our Cool: Uncomfortable facts about our Air-Conditioned World,

and, in an ideal world, yes, Cox should have his way. He makes excellent points about how our insatiable desire to

cool off is making the earth bake. But I don’t want to hear it this week.
