Conserving Energy… No A/C
Posted in Environment, Personal by George
My roommates and I are trying to conserve energy. We haven’t turned on our air conditioner all year, and only had our heat on for a total of about a month. It was really hot today… probably 95 degrees in Williamsburg this afternoon. But keeping the windows open and running fans, combined with occasionally splashing water on my face and taking a cold shower made things pretty bearable.
I do feel less productive in the heat, though. I’ve been sitting here working on homework, but it’s moving very slowly. I don’t know how someone living in Florida could do this. Oh well… anybody else ever voluntarily turn off the A/C?

Why yes, George, I’m actually in the same situation as you. My roommates and I have been trying to conserve energy (ie. money) by foregoing the AC for as long as possible as well. What a coincidence.
