Lecture 18 colonisation of australia + famine, states and climate. Viking settlements begin in iceland in 870 and then greenland in 982, during the medieval warm period, and die out at the beginning of the. Little ice age in the late fifteenth century.

Scientists say that none of these are in effect and that much of the worlds current climate change is due to man"s activities. There are many ways to determine past weather, and this is only one way. There is evidence that the medieval warm period was damaging for areas near the equator, particularly in the americas. Environmental reasons affected and even destroyed life, requiring ingenuity to survive or simply killing those who would not change: weather patterns.
