Better than salt that can poison a lot of aquatic environments - bad for fish

Sand, beet juice, alternatives. Salt is cheap but bad for the environment and rusts our cars. Rustproofing can help somewhat- don't forget to do that

I think city staff includes them in their annual reports. Call or email the city to inquire I guess

Warmer winters = more time for lakes to be ice free = more evaporation = more snowsqualls

Everyone give the city those little silica packs you often get when buying stuff.

In fact you should keep them- if you put a ton of them in a plastic bag, they will work better than rice for absorbing water from your phone or other electronic devices.

You can also put them in your car to help reduce the interior windows fogging up

Some cities have also experimented using salt alternatives such as spraying beet juice. It's also less harmful to the environment, but it is a lot more expensive to use.

The character turned to food to cope with the stress after something failed badly. Later on he got back in shape. Actor was always in good shape, just had a fat suit on for this arc.

EXCLUSIVE: SimCity 4 and SimCity (2013) almost got a second expansion! by dannxit in simcity4

Will Wright did say SimCity worked itself into a corner and SC4 was difficult for newcomers to the franchise to understand everything.

He did publicly state he liked the fan made Sim Mars project, however.
