What if air conditioning was suddenly banned worldwide?" Imagine a world where the luxury of cooling down in a hot car or building is taken away. How would society adapt to this dramatic change in comfort and convenience, and what alternative solutions might arise? This hypothetical scenario could spark discussion on the impact of air conditioning on modern life and the potential consequences of its absence.

Agreed. It was not until refrigerated air became more common that there was a migration to Southeastern USA (I suppose most of you already know that). I don't think a ban will occur. There would be too much political pressure against it.
