[quote=Anonymous]"Fewer kids went through it before because the climate is warmer now than it was just a generation ago. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/08/30/cli...h-hotter-is-your-hometown.html" This is NOT true. Yes the climate is warmer but only by 2 or 3 degrees. Yes that leads to larger swings in temperature so there are more warmer pockets than there were before. However, most colleges in those warm pockets have added AC over the last generation. The reason more kids are going through problems with warm dorm rooms is that the fraction of homes with AC has risen. More AC at home makes it harder for kids to do without in their dorms. https://www.eia.gov/consumption/residential/reports/2009/air-conditioning.php[/quote]
