I have lived through 4 UK/Belgian winters and a couple in Ottawa [high one week was - 18C, low one night -32C]. Cold air is no biggie. While poor, we wore lovely thick jackets, gloves and didn't heat our flat/apartment. Outdoors there was no heating option so everyone must already have some warm clothes. Wear them indoors. Have warm bedding - a quilt or two are very cheap. Foam underneath. Snuggly. When wealthy in Antwerp, we had a big boiler in the basement and heated the whole huge house. It's not a choice of food or warmth. “Lewis Ford, an organiser from Hull, agrees the movement is ‘a lot about solidarity’, especially for those forced to choose between heating their home and feeding their family. Buy food, wear clothes. Even Eskimos can get by in unheated igloos while hunting polar bears. Anyone who believes in the CO2 Climate Emergency should be happy that food has become the source of heat instead of truckloads of heating oil and pipelines of gas and trains full of coal. Rather than wear warm clothes indoors, another option is to cancel World War III, apologize to Russia, call elections in the eastern countries of the Ukraine Empire, pay Russia in roubles for gas and oil, forget about returning Crimea to paying tribute to the Kievan Empire. If people dislike wearing warm clothes indoor, wait until they find out how horrible it is to be incinerated in nuclear Armageddon which is the logical outcome of continued attempts to conquer Russia.
