If one looks into the chief causes of famine in the Twentieth Century, it becomes apparent that, although weather patterns are a factor, the chief cause of famine, mass migration of refugees, genocide, and desertification is POLITICS. Biafra, Somalia, Ethiopia, Sudan, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, the Holodomore in the Ukraine, massive famines in China, and many other Third-World countries were often the result of marxist rebels, forced collectivization of farms, ethnic cleansing, conquest, and civil war. If the expected rainy season is a bit late, or too early, it is even worse.
Very seldom has “climate” been the sole culprit for famine refugees. Yes...it sometimes happens that a region is so stricken with drought that the peaceful residents abandon everything and flee. But even the great migration from the Dust Bowl in the Great Depression involved a lot more than just “dust”.
