Do you know how many people literally die every summer because they don't have AC (let alone simply suffer)? AC is becoming a growing necessity.
Besides, AC is pretty small game compared to the big polluters.
A lot of people will die because of climate change as well. A lot more, in fact.
Death by heatwave while lacking AC is one of the main ways that climate change will be killing people. A Texas grandmother died from heat last week (among a dozen more people in her town) being too afraid to turn on her air conditioner because of the expense.
When the choice is between running the AC while potentially contributing to the global energy consumption driving the climate change and turning the AC off and literally dying, you don't need to be a hero.
