Because Norway does have them

2019-09-29 19:21:24 UTC  

i think thats made more for snow

2019-09-29 19:21:40 UTC  

It is a "0 energy" home

2019-09-29 19:22:02 UTC  

Made to use as little energy as it can to stay warm in the coldest of times

2019-09-29 19:22:23 UTC  

Being raised off the ground like that reduces heat transfer to the soil by a lot

2019-09-29 19:22:51 UTC  

yeah and snow build up probably too

2019-09-29 19:22:54 UTC  

All buildings in Antarctica are on stilts too for this exact reason

2019-09-29 19:23:11 UTC  

seeing you don't want any snow to touch the building and make it colder then it already is

2019-09-29 19:23:32 UTC  

Snow is an insulator to a certain degree

2019-09-29 19:24:01 UTC  

It does not allow the temperature to go below -4 if the layer is thick enough

2019-09-29 19:24:16 UTC  

Case-in-point: Igloo

2019-09-29 19:24:21 UTC  

yep

2019-09-29 19:24:38 UTC  

its not usually the cold either its the wind

2019-09-29 19:24:50 UTC  

House on stilts in cold places is mostly a thermal bridge reduction

2019-09-29 19:25:10 UTC  

As an added bonus you get a parking lot with a "roof" under the house too

Exactly: windchill is more dangerous than even -40Β°C

2019-09-29 19:26:12 UTC  

We should nuke the wind to stop global cooling

2019-09-29 19:26:18 UTC  

Wind can deprive you of your heat faster than cold air which is standing still

2019-09-29 19:26:29 UTC  

yeah man

2019-09-29 19:26:56 UTC  

its like a fridge in a way

2019-09-29 19:27:38 UTC  

a igloo is a pretty good counter to wind, the native people probably knew that too

2019-09-29 19:27:52 UTC  

I stayed in an ice hotel once in Quebec.

2019-09-29 19:28:00 UTC  

It was pretty ||cool||

2019-09-29 19:30:02 UTC  

that would be "cool"

2019-09-29 19:30:54 UTC

2019-09-29 19:31:22 UTC  

It's gonna just be cold, or death. Ergo, igloos.

2019-09-29 19:31:50 UTC  

Tankies Grab everything they can get

2019-09-29 19:31:50 UTC  

Igloos are warm

2019-09-29 19:32:07 UTC  

and share equally

2019-09-29 19:32:12 UTC  

Well, warmer than artic winds for sure.

2019-09-29 19:33:02 UTC  

When your in the cold it’s the best you get. If you had been through that kinda cold you would understand

2019-09-29 19:33:02 UTC  

Well igloos are warmer

2019-09-29 19:35:33 UTC  

@RAM II And I have, as said - better cold, than being an ice stague.
