Dude. Cannot imagine how weird that is, to go to such extremes in a single day. I mean, I've camped in the desert A LOT, and going from 90 during the day to high 20s at night is a thing that happens.... but... my friends in Colorado are going through the shit right now, that's for sure.

And yeah, you are burning fossil fuels, but not enough to even matter. There's 10 companies that create something like 70% of the carbon emissions that are destroying our planet. What you, a single individual can do to mitigate that, or make it worse, is meaningless, really.

Which can either be a crushing thought, or at least give you a little peace when you switch off the AC and turn on the furnace....

What a weird time we live in...
