No meio de verões sufocantes e do aumento das temperaturas globais, o ar condicionado tornou-se uma parte indispensável da vida moderna. Promete alÃvio do calor, aumenta a produtividade nos locais de trabalho e assegura o conforto nas nossas casas. No entanto, por detrás desta maravilha tecnológica estão questões complexas que exigem a nossa atenção.Ao procurarmos arrefecer os nossos ambientes, temos de nos confrontar com as profundas implicações ambientais, económicas e de saúde da nossa dependência do ar condicionado. Este livro analisa tanto as aplicações como os danos frequentemente negligenciados da utilização do ar condicionado, com o objetivo de proporcionar uma exploração equilibrada do seu impacto no nosso mundo.Através de uma análise detalhada, descobrimos como o ar condicionado influencia os padrões de consumo de energia, agrava as ilhas de calor urbanas e contribui para as emissões de gases com efeito de estufa. Analisamos os seus efeitos na qualidade do ar interior, na saúde respiratória e até no bem-estar psicológico. Além disso, exploramos os custos económicos, os desafios das infra-estruturas e as disparidades no acesso global à s tecnologias de refrigeração.
