Not so much. Been doing that stuff since my teens, though. High school karate instructor used to have us go out in the snow barefoot and do forms.

The cold, particularly at 32 degrees, doesn't work like that.
We're not kidding about the teens. You genuinely don't even notice unless it's windy.

There are MANY, MANY aerosols in the world
and the ones you remember had CFCs which destroyed the ozone layer.An aerosol is a suspension of fine solid particles or liquid droplets in air or another gas.
Yeah.
It's not me, it's someone else.
Climate Change (fka man-made global warming)
Yes, I remember CFCs are bad (China still makes them, FYI), but I didn't know they were in those aerosols. Thanks.
But yeah, this doesn't seem like a great plan. If man-made global warming is really going to end humanity, you'd think the governments would crack down on the actual polluters, the corporations, and stop trying these bullshit hail marys that really won't do shit.

You should really test water pressure on an outdoor line that's not necessarily constrained by a pressure valve for the house 
or at the meter.
or at the meter.It's not me, it's someone else.
Climate Change (fka man-made global warming)
I'm betting those people are on a well. Thus the contamination. Therefore, no meter, and probably no pressure valve. I wondered if they considered a new pump, or a new well. Either their well is dry, or their pump is failing. Not sure why a building next door would cause low pressure. I guess it could also be clogging their pipes with that stuff that's in the water.
Climate Change (fka man-made global warming)
Fair, I keep forgetting that wells exist.

April 19th, 2025 - Antarctica Ice Sheet rebounding for the first time in decades.
May 20, 2025 - The world's ice sheets are melting and we're all going to die.
It'd be cool if both sides were not funded by rich people making gobs of money.

Thanks, Covid!Notably, four major glaciers in the Wilkes Land–Queen Mary Land region of East Antarctica reversed their previous pattern of accelerated mass loss from 2011 to 2020 and instead showed significant mass gain during the 2021 to 2023 period.

Hawaii passes first ever "green law" that will tax tourists to offset their climate footprint.
Conspiracy theorists got another one right.
Also, interesting strategy by Hawaii considering they are already considered a very overpriced vacation destination. The Caribbean islands have to be pretty thrilled about this news.

I remember having recycling ruined for me many years ago by Penn & Teller in their show Bullshit. The only recycling that's actually worth the effort is metal. The rest is just for show and expends more energy/resources than what is being saved.
