Italian authorities are hailing an electronic bracelet device as a key health prevention tool, especially in the midst of the ongoing deadly heatwave in Europe, which has seen Rome temperatures climb close to 100 degrees Fahrenheit

I am sitting in my perfectly air-conditioned office in Brussels, where the temperature is maintained at a stable 21.8°C as required for senior regulatory staff. A citizen from Paris contacted our think tank today. He was not allowed to install a small split-unit air conditioner in his bedroom during the current heatwave. His wife is 8 months pregnant and struggles with the heat, he explains. This seems unreasonable, I clearly explained: Any device capable of lowering indoor temperature by more than 3°C falls under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation. It must undergo a mandatory “thermal displacement impact study” which needs to be submitted to the national competent authority. We have to avoid creating unregulated micro-climates that externalise their comfort onto the collective grid and the planet. Personal air conditioning is not a solution and does not work. 
We don’t want our cities to heat up because of A/C. They should heat up climate friendly via the sun.

The most severe and widespread June heatwave to hit Europe was made more brutal by the hot night-time temperatures and humidity, scientists said, and would have been virtually impossible without climate change.
