Paul and Jen talk about the coldest town in the world, where people sell water in ice blocks.


Story text

Das kälteste Dorf der Welt ist in Sibirien. Dort wohnen fast 500 Menschen. Die niedrigste Temperatur, die jemals gemessen wurde, war minus 70°C. Fast das ganze Jahr ist die Temperatur unter Null Grad. Die Milch wird dort in einem Block verkauft. Es gibt dort kein Leitungswasser. Im Juli ist die höchste Temperatur um die 20°C. Die Leute dort essen vor allem Fleisch und Fisch. Sie essen Pferdefleisch, weil sich die Pferde gut an das Klima gewöhnt haben.
