I have the solution to the local council financial crisis! Am currently sat finishing work in the local library. To describe it as being as hot as the third circle of hell is an understatement. I'm sat in a strappy vest top and still feel hotter than I did by the pool in Tenerife. I hope no-one* Teams calls me because there's no way I'm putting my proper top back on 
If they nudged the heating down about 10°C, the entire budget would be saved. Obviously. And it would be a pleasant place to sit. But the radiators don't have thermostats 
What bolted-on solutions do you have to crises in this world?
*Unless it's Mr KC. That's fine.  |

It's probably controlled by a central computer in Scotland.
They won't turn it off until May and you can't turn the rads off.
Or, Mavis in the Geography of the Ancient world section is always freezing and has sabotaged the boiler and rads. |

I had a similar solution for the UKs carbon output \ air quality issues.
Stop taxis sitting with the engine running in the middle of the day.
Walk out of the train station at 11.30 and there's cabs in a line of 20 all engines running. Absolutely awful to walk past. |

Absolutely, would vote for this! |

"You should try my local library, it is always freezing in there, even in the middle of summer!"
I think I'd have preferred that today 
I am mercifully released home, where it's a more equitable temperature |

Schools too. Our heating is centrally controlled. I LOVE it actually, but it's too hot for every other human it seems so we have to open all the windows. |

"Will it be enough to fill some potholes and stop destroying our cars, not to mention the danger they put us in? 
If they spend the gas savings on tarmac, I'd say so "
Yes and proper resurfacing not that ridiculous chippings the put on |

Put the tarmac in the library where it will be hot enough to melt it, then it can be gently spooned like warm honey into the potholes.
Also rent an area to the local pet shop so they can put their iguanas basking there, the zoo so the zebras think it’s the Serengeti etc.
In other ways to save the budget, forget about building wind farms and harness the raw energy of people on Fab wanking. Limitless energy forever. |

I thought this was going to be a science themed thread involving test tubes and eureka moments KC
