Winter is far superior as there are fewer insects, being cold is easier to deal with than being warm imo and other reasons.
Before I get into a decision, argument analysis, and weighing, this debate is hard because both sides are winning arguments, but neither side is contextualizing how they work against one another.
I vote Pro and here's why:
1. I buy Winter has less annoying and potentially deadly bugs.
2. I buy that Winter is more expensive and annoying to deal with as Summers are usually mild and less harsh than Winters.
3. I buy that Winter has more time sensitive activities because of the holidays and that the going out and doing things of Summer put negative pressure on people.
4. I buy plants and fruit grow better in Summer.
5. I buy wild animals have more access to food and are happier in Summer.
6. I buy that driving is easier in Summer.
7. I buy that allergies are less likely in Winter.
8. I buy that you can be more fashionable in Winter.
9. I buy that gloomy days and long nights are more available in Winter.
In conclusion, no debater told me how any of these nine points weigh against one another except for Con in the last speech, but I feel like this could have been in the first speech as it wasn't a direct answer to anything and it would be unfair to weigh that when Pro doesn't have a chance to answer it. Therefore, I just rank the nine points in the order of personal importance. I'll list them in order with a W or S for who won the point (Winter and Summer). Bugs W, Driving S, Holidays W, Expensive S, Gloomy days and long nights W, Plants and fruit S, Fashionable W, Allergies W, Animals happiness S. Since it's literally a W in every odd spot and S in every even spot, the W's are one ahead on every question.
Notes for Pro
1. Weigh why some arguments are more important than others, and the debate becomes undeniably yours.
2. You need to answer the points you dropped from Con, like driving.
Notes for Con
1. Weigh why some arguments are more important than others, and the debate becomes undeniably yours. You did this in the last speech, but I need it earlier for it to feel fair to evaluate.
2. You need to answer the points you dropped from Pro, like bugs.
I forgot to put this on my vote, and I'm very sorry, but feel free to question, comment, or message me about the vote.
Mosquitoes still transmit many deadly diseases such as Dengue, Zika virus, West Nile Fever, Encephalitis, and more.
In response to your first argument:
According to the CDC, malaria is only prevalent in poor tropical countries; and even if you were to contract malaria, the odds of dying are much lower now than in the past. Therefore, your first argument is weak.
jsyk, A/C is actually much more expensive than heating.
