Would people coming down from the Great White North to Florida or Caribbean during the Canadian winter be considered “climate migrants”?
LOL. A lot of NDP Canadian Karens and wine-moms would be shocked by their new status.
But it wasn't from global warming. It was global cooling during the Dark Age that caused the Huns to seek new land southwest of where they had been, which forced the various gothic tribes to move southwest too, which forced the Anglos out of their territory (modern day Germany area). The Anglos went north into Scandanavia (going north when it's already too cold where you're at to grow crops makes life even worse). We know that the Huns moved there too, we're not sure if pressure from the Huns is why the Anglos moved again -- this time west to Brittania (modern day England).
Something to think about whenever we hear the horrors of global warming -- historically it's the centuries long global cooling years that make most civilization commit atrocities against others.
Life during the Modern Warm Period is so nice that our government pays farmers to avoid growing too much food. That would have been unheard of when this country was formed during the Little Ice Age, growing food was a yuge challenge and many people starved to death.
“How about Snowbird Seasonal Migration!
Migrate south in late fall and winter and then return in the spring time.”
My wife has siblings and their grown children migrating to Floriduh and back during the coming month. They live in the Mid West. They rent a condo for the month of March. All of the guys (3 generations) are very handy with tools and 3 are engineers. They do rehabs on the condos as part of their rent payments.
