This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Dude climate change demands these. Have them powered by solar panels and its a win/win

They might have meant that. Americans using climate change to bully them to install a mini split.

Any energy from solar going to AC means solar energy not going to the rest of the house.

solar produces more in the summer, when an AC is more needed

Better building and urbanism should be the preferred solution. And solar panels can and should be installed even without AC

Unless you've got a battery to charge, or are otherwise constantly running something that takes more than a solar panel generates, most of it probably isn't going to the rest of the house anyway.
