There’s nothing funny about global warming. But one side effect of thawing permafrost in the Arctic Circle has been higher levels of nitrous oxide being released to the atmosphere. Nitrous oxide, that’s laughing gas. In the journal Nature Geoscience, they report this higher levels are being released because of global warming.

It comes equipped with a chemical cooling spray that you spray to the hat and the temperatures will be reduced to as much as minus-40 degrees Celsius. Minus-40 degrees Celsius? My advice is: Don’t over do it!
