Abstractly, having to run the AC for a longer duration due to heat will cost more money, which takes effort to make. But then again, buying a sun shade takes effort as well.

Heck, even global warming is an argument about effort. Does it take more effort now to reduce the negative consequences of global warming, or would it take more effort later to mitigate those consequences (rhetorical question)?
It took more effort to type that out than it does to crack a window open a bit.
