To the editor: The increase in temperatures attributed to climate change has led to the leaders of the Los Angeles County to order that the owners in not incorporated areas maintain their units below 82 degrees (“The rental units in the undertaking angels must be kept fresh under a new law.” August 5). This will require more air conditioners, which will throw more hot air outside the buildings and on the streets, increasing the effect of the urban heat island. Meanwhile, additional A/C units will consume more electricity, which is still largely produced By burning fossil fuels and, therefore, it will produce more carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, which will further heat the planet.
What a brilliant solution our county supervisors have cooked! Can you rewrite those annoying physics laws for us below?
