Unfortunately they dump far more heat outside than they remove from the inside.

I can understand warming caused by use of a furnace, but I'm less convinced
about air conditioning. A/C simply takes heat from the sun that heats up a
building and transfers that heat into the air. If the building was not there,
the sun would still shine and the heat would still be here. Or am I missing
something?
Or, are you referring to the power plant generating the electricity that
powers the A/C? In which case, yes, a considerable amount of electricity is
used to heat and cool buildings.

There's lot's of green emphasis on automobile usage but I never hear
anybody mention the warming that's caused directly and immediately by air
conditioner usage. I guess that might be a less popular subject with the
voting public.
