second winter
some thoughts on
global warming.
canada, by nature, is a cool country. (and when i say, "cool", it is not the slang usage.) born in canada and grew up in canada.
one could say i was quite accustomed to the weather. in fact, i remember the days when i used to wear merely a sweater and a vest outside when it was snowing--of course, not for a long period of time.
that was only a few two-three years ago.
now, instead of fall, we get first winter and then
second winter. fall is summer. summer, unfortunately, has been demolished.
i am sitting here wearing two sweaters while typing this post. a few years back, i would have been in my shorts and a t-shirt at this time. (admittedly, exercise may have a role to play in the reason of why i am so cold considering that i used to run every morning since i was child--and somewhere along the way of living by myself, it's been cut out of my routine.)
who says
climate change isn't happening?
