    I’m in Montreal and the summer gets as hot as 30c. and I hate it. But Australia can get as hot as 50 Celsius. No thank you give me the cold any day and I’ll live above ground. This kind of freaks me out.

    I live in a desert as well the high desert of California not too far from death valley anyway I know a lot of people that make the desert their home some have tried to put their houses underground. Housing is the problem right now in the United States. RVs are everywhere I didn't know they made so many but as you know gasoline is bad for the planet. A religious minimalist would only need water food and a Bible. Oh yeah and God.
