Jan 24 - cooling down the planet ?

These are the business end of air-conditioning units
which are ever present in Singapore stacked up on the outside of every building.

I have a love hate relationship with air conditioning, I know I wouldn’t be living here without it …
the continual humidity and heat would be unbearable.

But when you see buildings with the air-conditioning up so high you need a jumper on when you’re in there
(which you’ll have to take off the minute you get outside!)

and then the doors on some shops left open forcing the air-con
to work even harder you have to think sometimes it’s a little too much.

Yet still I couldn’t live here without it –
so maybe this is a rant with no point and just a picture of some air-conditioning units!!!

I can empathise with your air con dilemma. I have a similar dilemma about pollution/ global warming every time I start my car.
nice shot, like the colourful pipes.
