It’s pathetic how the Venezuelan government wants to control the access and propaganda from the earthquake. And this while lives at literally at stake.

Turkish construction firm Summa was the one that built one of the social housing complexes that collapsed in Venezuela’s Vargas state. Most of these social housing deals were fraught with corruption—between the money taken and nothing built and when they did build, it was 💩

The political indoctrination in Europe against AC is a disease. And the virus is spreading.

Europeans make air conditioning expensive and difficult to install. In Geneva, you need a doctor's note in order to install it!
From Maarten Boudry:
France would sooner close its schools in a heat wave than fit them with devices that demonstrably improve concentration and learning. In the Swiss canton of Geneva, installing an air conditioner requires a doctor’s certificate. During the recent energy crisis, Spain and Italy barred public buildings from cooling below 27°C—hot enough to dull your cognitive powers by 5 percent. In the midst of the current deadly heat wave, my own city of Ghent is officially advising people to “avoid air-conditioners”.
The resistance is baked into European regulation. In many countries a conventional air conditioner lowers your building’s energy rating. The result is entirely predictable: owners and landlords decline to install units, or rip out the ones they have. Those left without built-in cooling fall back on drafty, inefficient portables that can scarcely make a dent in the temperature. I own one myself—a wheezing box with a fat hose shoved through a rickety fabric covering the window. It is the thermodynamic equivalent of mopping the floor with the tap running, but that’s simply the direction in which Europe’s regulations have nudged me.
The A/C aversion has even penetrated into the commanding heights of European officialdom. In its public guidance on heat, the World Health Organization mentions air conditioning only in passing and conditionally (“Well, if you must use air conditioning…”). In its statement on the 175,000 heat deaths annually in the WHO’s European region, it says nothing about artificial cooling at all. Instead, citizens are advised to draw the curtains and drink enough water, as though it were still 1955. A 200-page WHO report on heat prevention grants air conditioning a single grudging page, immediately followed by two and a half pages about its “drawbacks.”
