How many extra calories would you burn if you lowered your room temperature to 12 degrees celsius?

My guess by the way is:
Assuming temperature in which your body does not have to put extra energy into maintaining your temperature is 21, and your body weight is 80kg, and you burn 1 calorie heating up 1kg of your body 1 degree, then you need to heat up 80kg 9 degrees celsius, which is 720 calories, then I don't know

That's heating up body from 12 degree to 21 degree and in both cases you're dead.
You actually need to measure the loss of heat from the body which varies depending on mostly clothing and minor things like humidity wind etc probably. Your body will need to produce as much energy as is exchanged with the environment, so you compare rate of exchange at 21 degree to rate at 12 degree. I don't think you can calculate it non experimentally with any accuracy without tons of other data and calculation.
You could probably search for some papers, it might be likely someone already measured how much heat we exchange.

I usually shower in cold water to get my metabolism running quicker. I don't even know if it works lmao, i'm just taking a bet that it does. too lazy to research.

How does focusing/thinking about a lot of things allow your brain to "burn more calories"? Or is that just a meme
Carter Murphy

Hard to say, as it heavily depends on what you wear and what you are doing. I can assure you though that it's not worth it. Taking a walk for half an hour will certainly burn more calories than spending a day in the cold. The downsides of latter are that you feel miserable all the time.
It doesn't get your metabolism running quicker, whatever you think that means. It does put some stress on your circulation though, which is a good thing.
Yes, it's a meme.
