History - How Engineering Innovation Cooled the World
Quote: It is hard for us today—with the ubiquitous air conditioning (A/C) and mechanical refrigeration many of us enjoy—to grasp how A/C changed our lives. It made tropical and desert places habitable, and it gave us the luxury of having access to cooling on demand for food, medication, electronic systems and science research. As the protagonist in Paul Theroux's book The Mosquito Coast proclaims, "refrigeration is civilization." Endquote
