I live in the south of france, and I really need to move to a cooler region in france. Summer are very long, nights are hot, makes it hard to sleep well.

I don't have enough money to install AC. Mobile AC is too noisy.

I have been postponing for 4 years now.

I am reading The Ministry Of The Future, it's a great book. India will be the first to suffer from this.

KSR is a good prose writer but I found The Ministry of the Future to be full of extremely unconvincing scenarios and I don't think you should let it inform your worldview. It's just a story written by someone who does not really know what they're talking about.

The Ministry of the Future. Chapter 1. is super accurate. That will happen in our lifetime. Learn about wetbulb temperatures.

No it is not "super accurate" it's a dramatic fictionalization designed to get you emotionally hooked into the book and convey the author's message.

It's indistinguishable from propaganda.
