I have a fundamental question:
Q: Why, in first place, human race came and settled at a place where for half a dozen of months its -25 degC?
...and then gradually they have developed technology to counter it!!!
They use tons and tons of salt, infinite fuel to clean the roads, remove the snow, infinite energy to keep the heaters on so that the ducts are not blocked, backup generators if electricity fails, backup stored fuel barrels if the backup generator fuel is finished. :P
Not only this, cars cost more as they should be equipped with heaters, cold start technologies, intruments to clean/scrub the windshields. This white snow also raises the insurance cost! Houses have to have an additional floor..below the ground.. the basement.. where people will feel warm and hibernate in winters... house cost increases!....... and much more!
.....and when it comes, the snowtime, these same set of people fly to warmer places like florida!!!! WTH!
