all they can think about is

You could provide fans, access to a wading pools outside and frozen treats –

From someone called Fork Ranger (on that big-tech site that sounds like Flemish children TV).
Fork Ranger: "This changed my perspective of Earth 🤯 The majority of people spend most of their lives in that little grey square.
That is why most people underestimate the amount of space it requires to grow food.
The big problem is that 83% of the farmland is used to produce only 17% of all calories and 38% of protein.
With a few simple switches, we could drastically reduce the amount of land and bring back more nature, while also solving a lot of other problems.
A few notes:
1️⃣ We could reduce the red grasslands by more than half, just by skipping beef and mutton. In this scenario, there would still be beef from dairy cows.
2️⃣ Shifting to a completely plant-based diet would require less cropland, not more.
3️⃣ “But pastures should be counted as nature.”
Perhaps some of it, but definitely not all. In Europe, a lot of grassland is ‘managed grassland’: a monoculture of rye grass and often even boosted with synthetic fertilizer. ..."
