Lil kids talking about "when I grow up". Man it's 70 in December you ain't growing up lmao
This type of messaging is anti-helpful. Even though it's a joke, it makes things worse. It demotivates people from making the world better.
There is nothing an individual person can change that will have an impact. There are maybe 10 large corporations that could, but won't, fix this. They won't fix it because it's not a profitable thing to do. They'd rather be profitable right up until the day we all die, than fix the problem.
The last character in his name is japanese. His full name is thus "Kenny Li Hi"
I rode my brand new bicycle home on Christmas Day ~~1983~~ 1982, and a neighbor was washing his car in shorts in his driveway.
I mean, the Southwest exists as do other places that don’t get snow regularly.
Chicago.
Christmas Day in 1983 was a record low for Chicago.

I'm not from the area, so I'm unsure if there are severe micro-climates in or around Chicago. Maybe, even, you and your neighbor are acclimated to very cold weather conditions. It's irrelevant either way, as we would all be better served by not conflating weather with climate, which OP's post is also doing.
