How the earth’s previous global warming phase, from the tenth to the fifteenth centuries, reshaped human societies from the Arctic to the Sahara—a wide-ranging history with sobering lessons for our own time.

From the tenth to the fifteenth centuries the earth experienced a rise in surface temperature that changed climate worldwide—a preview of today’s global warming. In some areas, including Western Europe, longer summers brought bountiful harvests and population growth that led to cultural flowering. In the Arctic, Inuit and Norse sailors made cultural connections across thousands of miles as they traded precious iron goods. Polynesian sailors, riding new wind patterns, were able to settle the remotest islands on earth. But in many parts of the world, the warm centuries brought drought and famine. Elaborate societies in western and central America collapsed, and the vast building complexes of Chaco Canyon and the Mayan Yucatan were left empty.

As he did in his bestselling The Little Ice Age, anthropologist and historian Brian Fagan reveals how subtle changes in the environment had far-reaching effects on human life, in a narrative that sweeps from the Arctic ice cap to the Sahara to the Indian Ocean. The history of the Great Warming of a half millennium ago suggests that we may yet be underestimating the power of climate change to disrupt our lives today—and our vulnerability to drought, writes Fagan, is the “silent elephant in the room.”

对于我来说,关于对气候的注意,主要来自于之前微信里疯传的那条群聊记录,关于现在气候变化,比如我国西北部的绿化成果等等。 在此基础上,我大体翻阅了一些讨论和文献,主要发现我们现在对气候的讨论真的很少,并且不够发散。而且近年来的研究也不是很有成就。简单来说,现在...

【我们的世界,正在变暖。】      有些人并不相信,认为这是个大谎言,比如美国现任总统唐纳德·特朗普。他将“全球变暖”视作一种限制美国工业发展的阴谋,并在上任之初,退出了旨在应对全球温室气体排放的《巴黎协定》。此举立即遭到全球绝大部分环境科学家的反对。 ...

Abandoned, too dry to read. Fake description of the past a bummer. Scanned a few pages about the drought in Tang Dynasty, didn’t know the Yellow River was called the Sorrow River
