If temperatures are getting hotter, and more people start using air conditioners more, which continue to make their external environmental temperatures hotter, is their any realistic hope of the overall temperatures coming back down?

Normally, we could expect the water cycle to balance things out. More heat->more evaporation->less heat. However, deforestation and CO2 emissions is slowly overwhelming Earth’s ability to balance it out. What we’re really worried about isn’t the AC but the power plant that’s generating electricity for Air Conditioning. If that power plant generates a lot of carbon dioxide then that CO2 is going to make the air turn sunlight into heat.

My advice is to grow plants, especially trees. Even on hot days plants are cool to the touch. Having some around your house will provide cooling shade, absorb CO2, and evaporate water to keep the air cool.
