PRINCETON / UC BERKELEY (US) — Human history shows a link between even a moderate rise in temperatures and an increased risk of violence between individuals or nations, according to a new analysis.
Researchers from Princeton University and the University of California, Berkeley, examined 60 studies from a number of disciplines—including archaeology, criminology, economics, and psychology—that have explored the connection between weather and violence in various parts of the world from about 10,000 BCE to the present day.
