    Every place is trying to kill you, it is just easier to warm a human body up than cool them down. It is easier to have someone just avoid water that is where it isn’t supposed to be than it is to bring water where it clearly has no desire to be there.

    How many places in the world do you think you could survive naked without access to indoors for over a day? Maybe some tropical island? I read once the typical member of the industrial world has never once in their life been outdoors for over 6 hours without some access to shade/tent/building. Which doesn’t sound right but try to think of the last time you did that.

      I mean, most people could survive almost anywhere for a day. Yeah, people need shade, just like all animals do; which is naturally provided by trees, shrubs, big rocks, terrain features etc. It’s true that there are places where humans have deliberately made the outdoors inhospitable by removing those features, but you can fix that by putting them back.
