for humid, arctic, arid, etc type settings you could adjust the thermostat appropriately for the day. Though, use this one with caution, most people don't smell good when they sweat too much, or other people might just zone out if they're too busy feeling hot/cold.
Instead, use one of those multi colored lamps to light the room blue for arctic cold ambiance, and orange or yellow for hot desert places.
Colours are very effective at emulating temperature, and there's no sweating or shaking because of too hot or too cold :)
