AC could add like 10°C to the streets during a heatwave, + any emissions from faulty equipment is massively more powerful than CO2
Putting AC everywhere is not a solution by any standard...
What we need is thermal insulation for the buildings
Except that isolations keeps warmth in, or out in the winter, but not both. Not that simple.
But you're right about cities and AC, I was in Madrid in august last year, jesus it was hot. So hot it was probably dangerous, I wonder how much was caused by ubiquitous AC.
