Some environmentalists purport that the average (2.5 kw) air conditioner will produce carbon emissions of approximately 1.5kg per hour.

For every additional degree of extra heating in winter or cooling during the summer will raise energy consumption by approximately 10 per cent.

In the United States air conditioning units are typically the greatest consumer of energy and normally account for anywhere from 30% to 50% of residential electric costs.

Cooling a house down at the end of the day will always take less energy than having the A/C run all day.

The act of leaving a door or window open, even to a small degree, will raise your air conditioning cost by up to up to 50%.

It is estimated that in the hotel/motel industry that a full 80% of the electricity used to heat or cool rooms is needlessly wasted on empty rooms.

The ammount of energy used to power American air conditioners roughly equals the total of all energy consumption throughout the entire continent of Africa.

NPR has made the claim that the United States Department of Defense spends $20 billion on air conditioning in Iraq ... more than the annual budget of NASA.
