Columbus Lowered World Temperature
- gus_massa 8y agoOriginal title: "Earth system impacts of the European arrival and Great Dying in the Americas after 1492" Title in HN: "Columbus Lowered World Temperature" Columbus was not a saint and committed a few of the earlier atrocities in that period, but it's unjust to blame him for all of them (and also the involuntary spread of illnesses) that caused the drop of population in America.
