Study: Mayans may have died from drought, global warming
The State Column | Saturday, February 25, 2012A team of scientists say that the Mayans may have been done in by a mild drought, possibly caused by global warming.
97% of climate scientists say that global warming is caused by human generated CO2, so we can state with confidence that your SUV killed off the Mayan civilization.
what wiped out the mayans
If only they made a computer models to warn them of their impeding doom. Then their empire would have lasted until the arrival of the armed-to-the-teeth and disease-ridden Europeans sometime later.
…Do these people even know where the Mayans lived? They already lived in a warm climate!
God, when this is over, everyone will look at this and ask: “Why were we so stupid?”
Don’t give Erich von Däniken new ideas, please!
Gleik said CC cause floods. What happened?
From Wiki -
The Maya civilization extended throughout the present-day southern Mexican states of Chiapas, Tabasco, and the Yucatán Peninsula states of Quintana Roo, Campeche and Yucatán. The Maya area also extended throughout the northern Central American region, including the present-day nations of Guatemala, Belize, Northern El Salvador and western Honduras.
- A drought on that scale should be historically noticeable I would have thought.
You’re right; it would. If there’s no evidence than this study is nothing but fiction. This study is blissfully ignorant of history.
