It’s sweater weather in Paris. But even though November brings brisk temperatures and fall foliage, it doesn’t mean last summer’s record heat should fade from our memories. One of the suggested reasons why students are so boiling mad is the hell they endured back in June in overheated classrooms and baking shoebox apartments.

We’ll ask about what they mean and whether it will work, particularly for the likes of India whose carbon footprint is growing alongside its economy and its population.
