In December ? Well, I do expect not to have to remove all my clothes 
when I get in a meeting room. We are not in private rooms.

Less energy consumption helps protecting our planet. What is ridiculous 
in that ?

Constant temperature is non-sense as human body adapts to seasonal 
average (unless one never goes out).

I don't mind if people feel warm enough to wear tee-shirt, but wearing 
warm clothes in winter seems logical and at least rooms don't need to be 
overheat. Which is not only good for the environment for also for the 
quality of air.
