The funniest argument and the reason I share this is that since the utilities company that provides the tram service has a ratified goal of becoming CO2-Neutral eventually, they've elected to not buy ACs since they'd consume about 7 million kilowatt hours of electricity per year and ACs aren't sustainable. I assume the 50°C tram is gonna be a big hit as per transportation in the upcoming summers.

"With AC we can only do 3° C less than outside" Well you fucking dingus, the tram does not have outside temperature without AC but up to 10° C more. These clowns should be kept in a hot tram all day without something do drink and standing as well. But I bet this shit head has a nice comfy office.
