Air Conditioning and the Environment
Environmentally conscious end users make some responsible choices when they can. They lower their thermostat in the winter and raise it in the summer. This decreases their energy use (with the additional perk of lowering their power bill). Other personal changes include switching to an energy-efficient heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system, replacing windows with multiple-panes glazing, and sealing and insulating ducts and water heaters.
