I would request that the President implement some of the policies and actions that are similar to the Government of Japan's "Cool Biz". With Executive Orders alone you could order the Executive components of the U.S. Government to adopt a more reasonable approach to the AC dial and to the expected attire from the government employees (drop the suit, drop the tie... wear short sleeve shirts, either button up or polo's). Specify a new standard (75 degrees? Maybe allow for a phased approach do that people don't go into shock over this and overreact?) and direct D/A heads to address appropriate business attire, at least from May to October. This would also be very consistent with your positions on Climate Change and perhaps spark similar actions in State/Local governments as well as industry.
