Natural climate change has always happened – and is happening now – with the caveat that certain Environmentalists now suggest that the agency of human behaviour also contributes to the process of climate change. Indeed, it has become stylish in certain quarters for climate change (natural or unnatural) to be blamed for environmental alterations that cannot be readily or conveniently explained. Until recently, the dominant hypothesis – presented as fact – was that the ancient (Pre-Colombian) City of Cahokia (located in the region of St Louis) had disappeared in the 1200s (13th century) exclusively due to climate change. New academic research, however, has provided reliable (objective) academic evidence that climate change was not partially (or entirely) responsible for the demise of Cahokia.
