Climate Change Caused Angry Runts : Discovery News

For example, cold temperatures between 1264 and 1359 led to the Great Famine of the late Middle Ages.

During the long cold spell between 1559 and 1652, average heights in Europe declined by 0.8 inches.

That disastrous period in European history is referred to by historians as the General Crisis of the 16th Century. It was a time of starvation and deadly conflict, including the brutal Thirty Years War.

Climate changes influenced the good times as well. The Renaissance may have been a result of more hospitable [and by "more hospitable", they mean "warmer"] temperatures.

“The alternation of historical golden and dark ages in Europe and the NH (Northern Hemisphere), which often was attributable to sociopolitical factors, was indeed rooted in climate change,” the researchers wrote.
