WHEN WE THINK OF CLIMATE CHANGE,
we think of man-made global warming, caused by
greenhouse gas emissions. But natural climate
change has occurred throughout human history,
and populations have had to adapt to the climate’s
vicissitudes. Anthony J. McMichael, a renowned
epidemiologist and a pioneer in the field of how human
health relates to climate change, is the ideal person to
tell this story.
Climate Change and the Health of Nations shows
how the natural environment has vast direct and
indirect repercussions for human health and welfare.
McMichael takes us on a tour of human history
through the lens of major transformations in climate.
From the very beginning of our species some five
million years ago, human biology has evolved in
response to cooling temperatures, new food sources,
and changing geography. As societies began to form,
they too adapted in relation to their environments,
most notably with the development of agriculture
eleven thousand years ago. Agricultural civilization
was a Faustian bargain, however: the prosperity and
comfort that an agrarian society provides relies on
the assumption that the environment will largely
remain stable. Indeed, for agriculture to succeed,
environmental conditions must be just right, which
McMichael refers to as the “Goldilocks phenomenon.
Global warming is disrupting this balance, just as
other climate-related upheavals have tested human
societies throughout history. As McMichael shows,
the break-up of the Roman Empire, the bubonic Plague
of Justinian, and the mysterious collapse of Mayan
civilization all have roots in climate change.
Why devote so much analysis to the past, when the
daunting future of climate change is already here?
Because the story of mankind s previous survival in
the face of an unpredictable and unstable climate,
and of the terrible toll that climate change can take,
could not be more important as we face the realities of
a warming planet. This sweeping magnum opus is not
only a rigorous, innovative, and fascinating exploration
of how the climate affects the human condition, but
also an urgent call to recognize our species’ utter
reliance on the earth as it is.
