Not only were Europeans responsible for the deaths of 50 million native americans, but this resulted in a mini ice age. This is science guys. >bbc.com/news/science-environment-47063973
>Colonisation of the Americas at the end of the 15th Century killed so many people, it disturbed Earth's climate.
That's the conclusion of scientists from University College London, UK.
The team says the disruption that followed European settlement led to a huge swathe of abandoned agricultural land being reclaimed by fast-growing trees and other vegetation.
This pulled down enough carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere to eventually chill the planet.
It's a cooling period often referred to in the history books as the "Little Ice Age" - a time when winters in Europe would see the Thames in London regularly freeze over.
"The Great Dying of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas led to the abandonment of enough cleared land that the resulting terrestrial carbon uptake had a detectable impact on both atmospheric CO2 and global surface air temperatures," Alexander Koch and colleagues write in their paper published in Quaternary Science Reviews.

>It's the UCL group's estimate that 60 million people were living across the Americas at the end of the 15th Century (about 10% of the world's total population), and that this was reduced to just five or six million within a hundred years.
Have you ever had a dream that you, um, you had, your, you- you could, you’ll do, you- you wants, you, you could do so, you- you’ll do, you could- you, you want, you want them to do you so much you could do anything?

God almighty, the white devil trully knows no limits.
Joshua Smith
So if we genocide chinks and other niggers, the global warming goes away?
>science We believe you, user. What's your point? Should we kill off 60 million people again, maybe? For the (((global warming))) and all, of course
Landon Garcia
or maybe its the sun?
Christian Stewart
Dear dick face.
White people don’t control viruses.
You’re retarded for thinking so, that is science.
Have a nice day
John Peterson
So if got rid of say... half a billion Chinese, half a billion Indians, half a billion Africans, and a third of a billion Hispanics we could end global warming?
Jeremiah Rodriguez
Actually there never was more than 250K injuns, and the Greenland Meteor sarted the Younger Dryas Event at the beginning of the Holocene. In reality the Solutreans were First nations, so Europeans are the true Native Americans. But hey trust some dipshit brit, so the injuns get more gibbs. The Younger Dryas Event was real, it happened.
It will significantly slow the global warming. It will still happen in time though, just like warm/ice ages have happened in the past.
Michael Sanchez
unironically, yes. also indians and pakis
Christian Long
>but this resulted in a mini ice age
liberals are so fucking stupid
Anthony Torres
Unfortunately it's probably just because the native Americans happened to be genocided on a piece of land that was very hospitable to fast-growing trees.
China and India have polluted and ruined so much of their land that it's take centuries for nature to reclaim. Africans, maybe, but again: limited to the areas with more temperate climates.
Anthony White
WHOOPS GLOBAL WARMING ISN'T REAL NOW IT'S A WHITE ICE AGE
That's pretty cool. Is this controversial somehow?
Jonathan Martinez
wow brutal meme lol
Nicholas Clark
Unfortunately after wiping out most the Indians and diluting the rest their spiritual powers are diminished and their bard prowresses all but forgotten They say Nathan Phillips still believes in the power of mamba and plays the song of his people to appease mother nature herself.
Kayden Baker
>Think there were 50 million native americans living in tents across North America?
kek. Think about how many people that is. it's not sustainable without more advanced farming and city planing then was available in North America.
Take way all the big cities in america and replace them with smaller cities. You'd have the population density for 50 million people. There just was no way that nomadic and prehistoric farmers had that much density.
Samuel Jenkins
Europeans were not responsible, Christians were. Just like the Christians who genocided pagan Europe.
Andrew Campbell
That's the biggest load of shit I have read in a while. Is this some veiled attempt to make people accepting of population reduction?
Adam Gonzalez
but there are still natives though, so we have to try harder
Xavier Turner
that and anti-white sentiment guilting whites into accepting unwanted mass immigration etc
Andrew Bailey
>Letting nature reclaim land raped by agriculture is bad for the nature
Carter Howard
Why were Native Americans essentially stuck in the stone age aside from some agriculture? They had a cold winter just like Europe, why didn't they develop intelligence?
>agricultural land "Native" americans were hunters & gatherers. They had next to none agricultural land. What am I missing here?
Grayson Sanchez
I'm pretty sure this number includes South America desu. Parts of which were neither nomadic or prehistoric by 1400
Gavin Williams
They should have finished the job. Native Americans are the most annoying and obvious gibs merchants that have ever existed.
David Parker

"....and what's interesting is that we can see natural processes giving a little bit of cooling, but actually to get the full cooling - double the natural processes - you have to have this genocide-generated drop in CO2." >genocide-generated drop in CO2"
time to genocide... the only excuse we needed. I suddenly became and avid supporter of climate change.
Hudson Stewart
OK, so, you think whitey's American genocide in 1500 killed off 5% of the world population and that started a 1500-1600 ice age. Fine. Riddle me this, then: why didn't Timur's genocide of India in the 1390s - which also killed off 5% of the world's population - also trigger an ice age, in the 1400s?
Ryan Parker
You are the worst ecofag ever if you are egocentric enough to think humans are murdering the Earth. Even if (((global warming))) were real, the only thing in jeopardy is planet's ability to sustain us, not the earth itself. This rock will be fine user, don't worry
Jason Cooper
Of course they grew crops. Have you not heard of corn? Potatoes? Beans?
Xavier Foster
no no no... we must support this, world wide 2 child policy, enforced by bullets.
Luke King
My wife's boyfriend thinks I'm crazy for no longer trusting the BBC
Tyler Edwards
The answer is clear, Hitler was a genius fighting global warming by exterminating 6 million jews. The answer to global warming today is to exterminate all jews and nigs.
On a more serious note, I have my MSc. in Environmental Science and how these fucking idiots can correlate these metrics is a mastery of mental gymnastics. By their conclusion, there would be noticable dips in atmospheric CO2 concentrations found in ice cores and other proxies during all modern communist exterminations of peoples in Euroasia.
Leo Brooks
death to tavistock and chatham house and riia and club of rome etc etc
Eli Foster
Horsehit lol This is what happens when your 'scientists' have yet to reach adulthood mentally.
Henry Fisher
>50 million stopped reading There weren't even 50 million in developed European nations back then, let alone scattered hunter gather communities,whose population was limited by the limited food supply. Fuck off with this meme.
David Jenkins
the colonisation of america took place over the course of centuries. the first permanent settlement was in 1607, in the midst of the cold period, and the eradication of the natives didn't culminate for another 250 years, well after the end of the cold period.
I don't know why I'm replying to this, it's so fucking basic.
Daniel Cruz
I think that the point isn't so much the number of people that were killed, but their relative CO2 impact. The argument is that native societies released a lot of CO2 per person, mostly by setting off forest fires to clear land. So when they all died, not only did all that CO2 stop being released into the atmosphere each year, but carbon sink greenery also replaced it.
That's the general consensus amongst mainstream scientists at least. Modern science is kind of a meme though
Robert Perry
>Little Ice Age Didn't that happen during the Viking age which was a couple centuries before Columbus? >University College London, UK. oh
When whitey accidentally does it with disease we almost doom the planet to a new ice age and its out fault.
God this is tiresome!
Jayden Phillips
sorry snowflake, the natives were smart. they developed aqueducts way before any yuropoor did. they also invented freeze dried food.You should be more respectful towards the natives, if it wasn't for all the gold you niggers stole from the natives your garbage yuropean civilizations wouldn't have flourished.
Adrian James
Evidence surrounding the Gothic/Tartar peoples suggests Genghis and company were white.
Justin Miller
Bu we should be thinking population reduction, just not in the areas where it's being promoted.
Elijah White
If Westerners are responsible for 50 million Indian deaths, mostly due to introduction of diseases and supplying weapons to rival tribes. Pro tip there were nowhere near that many Native Americans killed, even if you smear it out over a couple hunderd years. Then we can blame all the deaths caused by syphilis, due to it being a disease originating from those regions. Furthermore Europeans can blame the Mongols/Central Asian tribes who are most likely brought the black plague to The Ukraïne where it further spread due to Venecian trade routes. If that study is true then the black plague should have caused a mini ice age too. Not only where the people of Europe way more industrious, meaning more CO2 production then some Tribes in North America. Why did that not cause a mini ice age?
Cameron Wilson
Lack of horses and other domesticated animals?
No horse, no fast communication.
Horses just were too tasty for them to pass up.
William Sanchez
So 500 years ago a white man visited a bunch of native America hippies and sneezed, thus killing 50 million of them.
That was a good ice age though, it fought global warming.
Europeans just contributed to catastrophic global cooling. Keep Up.
Jayden Gutierrez
And? Indians murdered eachother constantly, there were very few tribes that didn't rape, murder and pillage on a daily. Actually, I can think of only one that didn't rape, but did everything else. They are trash, were trash and always will be trash. Same as niggers.
Bentley Price
So the solution to global warming is to finish off the natives?
Owen Gomez

Conceptually its just a little over the population of modern day Spain spread over the whole of North and South America.
Justin Morales
Sometimes I wonder who wants a race war more the British propaganda or the US propaganda it's all so confusing. Maybe the Russians did it.
Conceptually you can't name a single north american indan town or "city".
Xavier Lee
They achieved high Stone Age technology, which is O.K. when there was no contact with Iron Age civilizations. The Native Americans just didn't make the same breakthroughs Indoeuropean cultures did.
Christopher Morris
How about the Black Death that decimated global populations? Hmm... makes you think.
Juan Wright
So now we turned from global warming to global cooling.
Dominic Watson
It mawks sense, the dinos dies ans we had a ice age
Noah Price
they dont know how climate works NOW let alone in the 15th century. add mudflood and basically I dont believe you.
Levi Williams
its just whatever is happening that week i guess, normies take it on face value they are fucking DUMB
Adam Richardson
Funny how they flipped their theory. It was "scientific consensus" that native injuns burning thousands of square miles of forest was the reason they suffered from mini ice ages.
Connor King
Russia = CNN If you haven’t figured out they are compromised and that’s why they are always saying “Russia strong! Russia scary!” Then you are a retard. The very people constantly telling us how scary and in control of the whole world “Russian hackers” are, are the real Russian propaganda.
Dylan Gray
Great news. If we kill all the worlds niggers then the resulting mini ice age will kill off the rest of non whites.
Levi Edwards
>more wypipo >less shitskins >less global warming makes sense
ok actually that was meltwater pulse 1b, looks like there are four of them (abcd) which may be where the great flood myth comes from, a combination of these four catastrophic rise events.
Elijah Cruz
more industrious but also capable of having wiped out areas of land from ever recovering forests in the near (thousands of years) future... the spread of forests scrubbing is why the CO2 levels dropped so significantly, not the death of people who created the CO2... try to keep up toothpaste
Brandon Fisher
he does have that bug eyed jewish look

>according to science, killing people leads to a mini ice age >reversing that, birthing tons of new people must lead to a warming-up of the climate >we're in "climate change" and "global warming" right now with 8 billion people, 6 billion+ of whom are shitskins >this is many, many, many times more than were killed in the injun wars >if the relatively small number of indians killed could change the climate, the massive number of overpopulated shitskins is inarguably impacting the environment >thus, to solve global warming, all we need to do is glass india, indonesia, china, and apefrica Wow, I fucking love science!
Jose Powell
Canada here. It helps the american indian drug junkies get subventions from tax money when our prime minister bends over first and signs document without reading them after. We get at least 5 radio shows about impossible grocery prices in antarctic native villages because wengot to ship everything trough private flights. No one forces you to live in the tundra. North american indians younglings now prefer the homeless vagabond lifestyle of big coty centers down south.

>what is milpa >what is terra pretta Indios have suprerior farming techniques over Europeans at the time and they were more selfustained.
