Hypothermia deaths have risen in California and across the nation. Experts point to the growing number of older, unsheltered homeless people as a key factor in the trend.
One option is building these $7 DIY heaters to give away. I’m sure a good sleeping bag rated for the night temperatures of the local area would also help, though the heaters (if they have a tent) may be more cost effective (able to help more people, perhaps).
yes the key factor is older, unsheltered homeless people not the lack of affordable housing, jobs with living wages, universal healthcare and the like
damn homeless people need to be younger and more sheltered so they won’t freeze
This article is literally just explaining a trend.
Every single article doesn’t need to do a root cause analysis and conclude with “fuck conservatives” to have a valid point
Wonder how we can help out? Would like to know a good cheap winter kit to give to em.
