Trinity Grammar takes heat on climate

From this article:
AN ELITE private school that is pulling out its air-conditioners wants all schools to join its battle against climate change.

Trinity Grammar is making an environmental stand, planning to remove all its air-conditioners within five years.

Small windows to allow natural air flow will replace air conditioning in all areas of the school except rooms that house computer servers.

Students and staff have been told to be "resilient" and teachers will alter their lesson plans on extremely hot days.

Why can't this grand experiment be tested first using the various government office buildings? Can't government officials be expected to be a bit more "resilient" during these times of required sacrifice?

Fat chance!
