Humanity is surprisingly consistent on certain points. When presented with fossils of dinosaurs and the like humanity has consistently created dragons. A fear of outsiders and the dark is common. However, it’s not just fear that makes humanity similar; one thing that is common is our mastery of the environment around us. Humans are not the hardiest species, and we’re not very optimized for a lot of different environments. Texas as a whole helps show the ways in which humanity has struggled with just controlling their physical temperature. Towns like Austin Texas get surprisingly cold in the winter, cold enough that real heating efforts are needed, but as expected of Texas, the summer is brutally hot. In Austin, both heating and air are common in Austin as a means to control the temperature.
The technology behind heating is older and simpler. Evidence of fire being used to keep people warm predates human civilization. On the other hand cooling systems, especially efficient ones are fairly new. Yet despite this people have always searched for their own versions of heating and air. People have used what nature provided to cool themselves down, including simply jumping into cold water to lower their temperature. Underground cellars were dug just because below ground it was cooler, even if they tended to be high humidity. People everywhere, not just in Austin have fought to control their environments. It’s natural for people to seek comfort, what’s interesting is the length we go to. Heating comes more easily, cooling, that was a different subject.
What’s more interesting isn’t that air conditioning happened, but the other ways, besides heating and air, people try to control their elements and how the elements affect their lives. While Austin is still a part of Texas, it’s not how the media likes to portray Texas, namely cattle and cowboy hats. However, the hats did serve an important role in holding the sunlight off of the head, neck and shoulders. They also made it easier to see in a brutally hot environment. Much of the classic Cowboy clothing that has survived (and even what hasn’t) is clothing based around helping one keep the sun off during the day, and to keep warm during the cold nights. Beyond that people have carried the technology of fire with them into the cold and dark, and have designed homes to cool. The modern invention of air conditioning and the improved internal heating options have made heating and air a real option in Austin, but it’s not something startlingly new. People have controlled their environment for comfort for a long time, this is only the most advanced modern version of it.
