Migrations induced by extreme climatic events28-09-2019 16:17
Third world guy ★☆☆☆☆ (88)	It is a fact that certain climatic events generate migrations (droughts, floods, cyclones, etc.). Looking for objective information about it, I consulted this site: https://www.migrationdataportal.org/themes/environmental_migration There are no direct measures of migration due to the weather, but there is a graph of publications about it. Obviously that graph is increasing, in the same proportion as alarmism. Conjectures cannot be made on such relative bases. My question is if there is any other site on the Internet where that information exists. There are three kinds of climate change: that generated by natural factors; that generated by man; and that generated by economic interests.

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	I think something like that would be very hard to find, with out bias, or agenda. Migration is normal, and natural, common for most anything with legs. It generally about survival, if the environment becomes hostile, or no longer provides the essential needs, it's time to move on. Humans, on the other hand, have additional motivations for migrating, which don't involve survival factors. A large number of the people illegally crossing our borders, seem to have had every thing they needed to survive, and more, since the can afford to pay people to help them get into the country illegally, several thousands of dollars, each. I tend to believe much of that money is set to them from relatives, that made the trip successfully before them. Which is another good reason to deport, since many are commit crimes, by supporting illegal activities of smuggling their relatives over the border, as well as not paying taxes on their income, while enjoying the services the rest of pay for. Human migration, isn't entirely environmental, it's often greed and lifestyle. Most of the higher developed countries, also pass out free money, like candy on Halloween night. Migrants are lazy, the are very hard workers, for the most part, takes a while for them to learn new skills, like slacking off, doing the bare minimal. People who are doing okay, may still migrate, as they want better, or more stable lives, health reasons, maybe just different interests, or opportunities. Humans tend to migrate, entirely by choice, not so much by environmental conditions. Most places on earth go through some rough environmental periods, some are seasonal, some are rare, but the potential for disaster comes every year. I live in Florida, it's mostly decent the entire year, but we do get some severe weather events. Most don't last very long, seldom devastating, but the threat always exists. Maybe be not great for everyone, but it works for me, and quite a few other people. A lot of people like Alaska, where it's cold and frozen most of the year. We can learn to adapt to most any environment, some are more work than others, some more dangerous. It's really more of a choice and preference, depending on how much work you are willing to put into it, and what extremes you are comfortable dealing with. I don't like dealing with cold, so migrated to Florida, with no regrets.

Into the Night★★★★★ (21582)	Worse, some migrations are tracked (such as crossing international boundaries), some are not (such as crossing State boundaries) leaving only estimates (guessing) for those. There is no tracking for the reason for a migration either. Again, that's just estimates (guessing). So depending on what migration you are interested in, you might be able to find some data, others, you won't. Edited on 28-09-2019 20:06

I don't like dealing with cold, so migrated to Florida, with no regrets. I've known several reasons people migrate to Florida: * warmer temperatures, including winter temperatures. * friendly environment financially for retirees. * lower overall tax rates (government corruption for less! A bargain!) * proximity to resorts. * escaping persecution. * because a relative already lives there and the migrant wishes to rejoin them. * escaping socialism (such as Cuba). * escaping island life (including the limited resources on an island). * to join a lifestyle (the Keys, the Villages, the AANR, Miami, Orlando, golfing, scuba diving, etc. * they got lost and couldn't find their way back out. Some of these are still searching for their car in the Disney parking lot. Other than escaping the cold, I've never seen anyone move there because of the weather. The folks in Bermuda didn't go to Florida to escape the hurricanes! The Parrot Killer Debunked in my sig. - tmiddles Google keeps track of paranoid talk and i'm not on their list.

When are people going to move back to California after they all migrated out because of the drought? We both know that they're not still there, right? After all, it's a fact that droughts generate migrations, yes? By the way, ... what the F is a "climatic" event?

That we are going through a mass extinction on Earth https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/jul/10/earths-sixth-mass-extinction-event-already-underway-scientists-warn is not likely to be due to climate currently. The article above doesn't give it top billing at all. "Wildlife is dying out due to habitat destruction, overhunting, toxic pollution, invasion by alien species and climate change. But the ultimate cause of all of these factors is "human overpopulation and continued population growth, and overconsumption, especially by the rich"" Climate Change is a threat that, if it's going to be a serious problem, is looming and in our future. For other species on the planet it hasn't been a serious issue yet according to those who study it and advocate that theory (I don't think at least). Animals running for cover in the Amazon are running from farmers burning their habitat to the ground to make room for cows. They are not running from 1/4 degree shift in the Earth's temperature. It would be very difficult to isolate a migration from that pretty long list of human causes that aren't related to climate at all.

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	Have you considered that it isn't just human overpopulation, but many other species, which are protected, and forced into continued existence? Mankind has always slaughtered predatory, and competitive species, for fun, and profit, sometimes food. The wolves, bears, large cats, snakes, all limit populations of their food sources. But mankind has a long history, of just killing off any species, considered dangerous, or a threat to crops an livestock. There are several species we work hard to preserve, which have fewer natural predators. They have annual hunts, to reduce those populations, to reduce disease and starvation, when food is less available, during the fall and winter months. I really don't know where people get the idea of mass extinction, there have been quite a few endangered species taken off the list, because their populations a growing fast. We had a few fish species taken off the protected list as well. People are kind of selective, about where and when, they are looking at species populations. Most will move, when the environment they traditionally call home, no longer supports their needs. A population in one area might be on the decline, since it no longer supports a large population. Nobody thinks to look on the other side of the hill...

But mankind has a long history, of just killing off any species, considered dangerous, Actually, many animals will kill off any species that becomes dangerous to them, if they can. They'll at least try to drive them off (just as we do!). HarveyH55 wrote: or a threat to crops an livestock. There are several species we work hard to preserve, which have fewer natural predators. True. HarveyH55 wrote: They have annual hunts, to reduce those populations, to reduce disease and starvation, when food is less available, during the fall and winter months. Hunters are among the best of those preserving species as well. Their conservation programs in the United States have restored many species. HarveyH55 wrote: I really don't know where people get the idea of mass extinction, Simple. They made it up.

Here's the trick they use: The same species on the other side of the hill is called a different species. Then you can claim that a species went extinct, while a related species on the other side of the hill is endangered (look at what happened on the first side of the hill!). So you have the Columbia River Shrimp and the Rogue River Shrimp. The Rogue River Shrimp is found nowhere else on earth but the Rogue river, so you have to shut the irrigation valves to save it, leaving farmers destitute, even though it's really the same shrimp.

Third world guy ★☆☆☆☆ (88)	OK, IBDMann: you already made it clear to me. Weather events generate temporary migrations. After the cyclone, flood or drought, people return to their place. Even in the United States, when a cyclone arrives, people move to safe areas, and when the risks are reduced, they return home. In the case of major climate events, the migrations could be definitive, and this complicates any statistics. There is no way to prove that there are definitive climatic migrations at this time. There are three kinds of climate change: that generated by natural factors; that generated by man; and that generated by economic interests.

Polar bears are like a walking Walmart store for the Inuit hunters. They provide food, fur, tools, leather, and material for weapons. I got the impression that Polar bears mostly knock over trash cans, maybe snag a protected fur seal or two, if nobody is watching...

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	Is a drought considered weather? I remember something about a 7 year drought, and know there were others that lasted a couple years in other counties. That one in Ethiopia seemed to last my entire childhood, every other commercial on TV, was starving children.
