Some idiot in Germany posted a photo of emergency nurses wearing chill vests, presumably taken out of a hospital freezer, as an alternative to installing Airconditioners. Freezers ARE ‘aircondioners’!
Even Australia’s Marxist-Trotskyist PM wouldn’t tempt ‘Killing Granny For Climate” internet memes.
If you want to support your favourite science, get your wallet out.
