Yes water cooling for eg work places increasingly common.

Heat pumps are air conditioning (reverse cycle :-) Every one shutters their apartments in daytime, in addition to fans. Many buildings have passive cooling systems/pumped water systems (Swiss cities are often beside lakes and rivers). We need to think long term about efficient cooling systems.

Agreed. And plenty of lived experience of Geneva heat. But concerned that the jump is made to air con as ‘the solution’ to cooling without considering other less energy intensive options. Also air con is not allowed in Switzerland….

What about ceiling fans? They worked well for me in Geneva.

Ooo that looks fabulous!

That should say Gernot! Pre coffee here..

Love it! Thank you Germot. I hadn’t figured out how to make starter packs yet :-)

Trevor McDougall (UNSW), Mark Girolami (Turing) and Albert Fischer (now WMO) have them - but haven’t seen them in Bluesky yet!

Cover your bike but not your face..?

Or considering the requirements of the non-male half of the population when designing things ;-)

Doubt it. Rarely queues at Male toilets! … Worth reading carolinecriadoperez.com/book/invisib...

Thank you Mike! Hope we will still have opportunities to collaborate:-)
