Have you ever wondered why, in this era of highly developed technology, Europeans would rather “endure the heat” than install air conditioning? There are actually many secrets behind this phenomenon.

First, let's learn about environmental awareness. Europe has always been proud of its high level of environmental awareness. In their eyes, the sustainable development of the planet is much more important than personal comfort.

To reduce carbon emissions, they choose to walk or ride a bike and avoid using cars as much as possible. In the hot summer, they would rather endure high temperatures than increase energy consumption and carbon emissions by installing air conditioning. Europeans realize that there is only one earth and that protecting the environment is not only a choice but also their responsibility and mission.

However, environmental awareness is just the tip of the iceberg. Winters in most of Europe are very cold, especially in Northern Europe. However, even in the cold winter, it is rare to see Europeans wearing long pants. The reason is surprising: Europeans cannot afford long pants. It sounds unbelievable, but it is true.

Europe does not have a tradition of producing long pants, so if imported from China, plus shipping costs and tariffs, the price of a set of warm long pants can be as high as half a month's salary. Faced with such high costs, Europeans can only choose to endure the cold. This is not only an economic problem, but also shows their hard-working spirit.

In addition, the short-term high temperature in summer in Europe is also an important reason why they do not install air conditioning. A similar situation can be seen in three northeastern provinces of China. Although there are high temperatures in summer, the duration is short, so there is no need for air conditioning. Similarly, the high temperature in summer in most European regions only lasts for a certain period of time, so installing air conditioning does not seem to bring much benefit. For them, enduring high temperatures for a few weeks is much more cost-effective than spending money on air conditioning
