"What temperature do you want to live in?" That is a great question. I moved from northern Vermont to South Florida. This caused a dramatic change in my life. My climate went from an average 45ºF to average 75ºF. That is a real +30ºF climate change. I have never been so happy and healthy.

My ears bleed... Thanks for your work on teaching us, but please, stop mixing so many sound at once, in the background. It distracts some people from actually learning something from the video.

Scientists helping politicians who help scientists--it's all money folks, YOURS via taxes, often such circular "green-ness) results in bad outcomes, like eradication of agriculture in California. Think food prices are too high, wait to have only manufactured foods (GREEN!) generated by robots from weeds, chaparral and lawn clippings.
