What do you think of air-con levels?
There is no doubt that people need air conditioning in a room to remain comfortable during the summer. During the summer months, I try wherever possible, to stay in areas where there is air conditioning.
However, I do appreciate that air conditioners lead to increased temperatures in our streets, because of the heat coming from air-con systems. It creates a sort of vicious cycle.
I do not think that on all occasions air conditioners should be fixed at 25.5 degrees Celsius, as the government recommends ('Air-con campaign takes the edge off chill', July 28).
That may be a bit too hot for a crowded shopping mall and a bit too cold for an almost empty study room. The level should be flexible.
The difference between the temperature in an air-conditioned room and the temperature on the street is often quite extreme and this can be very uncomfortable.
We should always think about what effect our actions will have on others and this is relevant when it comes to setting temperatures on air conditioners.
