    As one TH-camr said, When it's cold you can just keep adding layers, but if it's hot you can only do so much before it becomes unbearable.

      Actuslly we can sweat heat off but if its xold, it vecomes very fast unbearable to even draw money from the wall or go yo toilet. You can nit produce heat by muscles 24/7 but can sweat around the clock

      Just adding more layers in the cold isn't a practical solution. It's quite possible to sweat from having too many layers. Personally this happens with my feet, also my feet are quite vulnerable when it comes to switching between indoor and outdoor shoes. Gloves get very annoying as your hands become quite useless. Your fingers get too big for a keyboard, you can't use your phone or any touchscreen with it (Ted-Ed made a different video about this), and cooking/eating with your hands is out of the equation. Also you have to make sure your entire body is covered as a single weakspot will have the cold entering your body, especially in bed. The same applies if anything on you gets wet.

      This is actually the exact reason that I prefer the cold over heat. Both feel good in the right circumstances, and in other circumstances, both can be too much. But I would say that it is easier to warm up in the cold than it is to cool down in the heat.

      "heat producing sources" we're like a type 0.7 civilization, we can't possibly produce enough heat directly to cause global warming.
      what we've done is mass produce greenhouse gases, most notably steam which almost every power source produces, including ones considered renewable like geothermal and "green" like nuclear.
      I suggest we use tax incentives to more naturally push businesses towards solar and wind power.

    I'm from a town called Wellington, South Africa, and the geography does not lend itself well to cooling. It's so bad that we have the nickname of "hellington" cause in the summer the temperatures can hit 45 celcius in the day and only marginally back down to 30c at night. How do we cope? Good question, you can't work for more than 40 ish minutes without getting in a pool because the sweat from your hands will ruin the book you're writing in. Gaming is almost exclusively nocturnal, lest you jam a frozen cloth into your pc for cooling as I did to play portal. We even soak our bedding in water and sleep on the floor, which is quite comfortable. Cold water during daytime is a valuable commodity since water in the pipes can be heated to often boiling points. At night the fridge is filled completely with water for the next day. I used to be worried about my sweaty smell, but fact is that it doesn't matter cause it is unavoidable at school and everyone wreaks of sweat. And no, we don't have aircons. We have desk fans that cost about 2% of what an aircon costs and is about 0.2% the cost to keep running

      may I recommend using a green alternative to an AC unit.
      There is a few tricks that we can use to attain a permanently cold indoor climate without the need of expensive electricity.
      First we need thick stone walls.
      1 meter in thickness will suffice, but a little thinner may also be enogh, especially if ye combine it with trick #2
      plant cover. Simply cover all of your outside walls with plant. I recommend Ivy, it is fast growing and likes to cling to things. A good think plantcover absorbs the heat from the sun and prevent the stones from getting hot, which allows us to have much thinner walls and still retain a cold inside.
      It functions much the same way as getting cold beers on a hot beach without electricity.
      Just soak a towel in water, wrap it around the beers and leave it in the sun to bake. The beer will actually start to freeze if ye keep it out too long

    It's interesting what he says about the wet bulb temperature of 35'C being the cut off point. I live in Vietnam, where it is very hot and very humid, and it's usually in the early 30's. But in April/May it gets hotter, and there is a definite difference between 34/35'C and 36/37'C, one is ok, no problem, the other just feels totally unbearable. The video is right about that, that does seem around the dividing line

    Being from Canada ( got to 46C here absolute temperature in British Columbia ) and the displacement of insects & animals is obvious that a tipping point has occurred. Toronto uses the term humidex to indicate how bad an airmass from the Gulf of Mexico affects summer heat. What I find amusing are the palm trees on Vancouver Island and other coastal BC locations. The opposite coast is more prone to hurricanes. The top coast melting over time causing all kinds of things like apples growing further north with wheat. Or fires, droughts and floods. It’s getting increasingly harder to insure a property in Florida. It’s amazing how humans have such an impact. Good and bad.
