There isn't any type of education that can replace air conditioning.

I agree, but I think that's a desirable goal. There isn't any reason
why human population must perpetually increase. And if it does
perpetually increase, eventually everyone will starve under the most
dire conditions, since the resources of the planet are finite.

I think we'll have a bit of warning.

you don't think we are already getting them? Warming, species
loss,oil and gas supplies....

Global warming has been going on for thousands of years. Species loss
is no greater than any other time in history and is offset by species
gain. Oil reserves will last at least another century by which time we
can easily have alternate energy sources (if the environmental nuts
will allow it, that is).

So where is your warning?

It has never been unpleasant in the way it is today. The normal high
for August and July in Paris is around 24° C. In the past ten years,
that normal high has faded into history, and now the highs may reach
38° C. That's a 14° difference, due to global warming. Paris in the
summer today has nothing to do with Paris in the summer in the past,
and the books you read about Paris are talking about weather that is
now just a memory.

They were single years, not decades.

Mixi confuses the past with the present.

He does seem fixated with the imperfect tense.

Education can replace it in terms of saving lives. It's cheaper too.
