Human Habitability - Climate Zone Population Density
Vložit
- čas přidán 19. 06. 2024
- Have you ever wondered which parts of the Earth support the greatest concentrations of population? And if so, what would be the leading cause of this?
Human settlement is determined by many factors, such as proximity of trade routes (rivers and coasts), defence and imposed governmental policy. But perhaps the greatest influence is that of climate, and through it, the ability of the land to support population through agriculture.
📊🌎🌍🌏📐
In this video we combine the results of the analysis of climate types by total population and land area to produce perhaps the most telling of all metrics relating to climate and habitability - the index of population density. The ultimate statistical geographic analysis of climate and population.

Hi everyone! I hope you enjoyed this revealing study of climate habitability. Say hi, and let me know which climate zone and country you're in!
Which climate zone is in Serbia? On some maps it is humid subtropical, on some maps it is continental...
@@aleksandardjordjevic4936 it depends on whether the 0°C or -3°C isotherm is used to separate them (climatologists don't agree on it - so some maps show Cfa, others Dfa)
@@Geodiode Yes, and I think that my city (Nish) used to have average temperature under 0°C in January, but last years, winter temperature averages much above 0°C. Climate changes...
Hi
Humid subtropical is the best climate no doubt!
❤
Glad to see you're using the new Koppen map data from 1981-2016. The old one was very inaccurate when it came to showing climate in mountains.
The continental climates are the sorts that people often try to get out of because they are unpleasant. Winters are cold, and summers are often sultry, so one gets the worst of both hot and cold seasons. One obvious fact about continental climates is that one can get one crop a year even if the soils are fertile. Those may be quick-growing grains, and they may be grown in quantity. On the northern fringe of the moist subtropical zone (southeast Pennsylvania, northern Arkansas) one might get three crops in two years. That makes a difference.
@@Geodiode -- The Continental climate zone had some of the areas that industrialized earliest. The only year-round farming is raising livestock for meat. milk, and eggs because one cannot grow crops in a real winter. Because this climatic zone put agricultural workers out of work half the year it was good for a supply of good workers for industry. As agriculture became a lesser share of employment, the Continental zone became an economic powerhouse. Still, food must be imported half the year, and housing has to be built to protect dwellers from winter cold, and household heating is expensive in a Continental zone.
The Dfa zone is a miserable place to live as its summers and winters are both brutal. The cost of living is high, so people must earn above-world-average incomes to find life tolerable. The Dfb zone might not have the harsh summers, but the winters are even colder. In America this is where Edison found his technological marvels and where Henry Ford established his assembly line, where Sears established his mail-order retailing and people like Ward, Macy, and Field established giant department stores. When Germany was more continental in climate, this is where the Rothschild family invented modern banking and Siemens and Diesel did their inventing. Even in culture, this is the home of such greats of music as Bach, Mozart, Bartok, and Shostakovich and such writers as Goethe, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, and Kundera come from. In America? Melville, Mark Twain, Dickinson, and Hemingway. The historian Arnold Toynbee, who has geographic and ecological determinism as the cornerstone of economics and social organization determined that the areas near the Cfa-Dfa border (Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Detroit, and Chicago) bring out the best efforts of Humanity to turn survival into thriving. Go north and the hardships begin to overpower people (northern New England, Quebec) only to grade off into the rigid ways of life necessary for survival in Greenland. Go further south, and life becomes more languid, where slavery becomes increasingly common as a way of getting toil to raise the crops and finally the true equatorial zone which condemns most people to live as hunger-gatherers (whoops -- the keyboard is great for Freudian slips). Then there are China, South Korea, and much of Japan.
Oh, by the way -- Freud developed his culture-shaping psychoanalysis in Vienna, which is arguably the greatest city for the creation of music... ever. The Continental zone has lost much of its luster in recent years. .
@@paulbrower4265 can you go into more detail about Dfb climate vs dfa and it’s effect on human flourishing.
@@chris9053 The Dfa and Dfb climates probably industrialized early because crop-growing completely stops in the winter. Winter would be a good time for making agricultural tools for producing crops (think of McCormack's reaper in Chicago) and of course winter clothes which people need where temperatures go below freezing. The fuel industry (Rockefeller's Standard Oil in Cleveland) got a start with kerosene for oil lamps before there was electricity. Meat packing and grain processing (Kellogg's and Post in Battle Creek, Michigan) appear near the Dfa-Dfb border as does Pillsbury in Minneapolis. Beer and vodka figure heavily as a good store of calories (if having its problems) due to their slow degradation in storage. Add to this, one gets some huge inventions, including motion pictures. electric lights, automobiles, farm tractors, and phonographs. The harsh winters give people time on their hands, which may explain the great literary traditions of New England... and Russia. Moby Dick and The Brothers Karamazov are not for people who lack the time to create and read them.
Continental climates get the bigger and better crop yields in the long, hot growing season, but that season is still good enough for only one slow-growing crop such as maize. Orchard crops in this climate allow apples and cherries and perhaps some grapes in favored areas if they fit the part-year growing season. Farther north one goes to areas of wheat crops and then potatoes. Go north of the potato belt and you have forestry, which becomes the dominant agriculture in subarctic zones.
This said, these are not climatic zones to love. People live there because the economics are good, which can be said of all places with continental climates except North Korea. In Iowa the crop yields are high, but the summers are tropical and the winters are... well, Russian. Winter sports are the only reason to travel to such places in the winter if not for economic reasons. People with the funds often retire elsewhere.
@@paulbrower4265 loved reading this thank you! I could hear you talk about this for hours!! Write more if u want ;)
@@paulbrower4265 And here I am thinking of moving to New England to escape the hot desert climate I grew up in
Makes me wonder how climate change over the next 100 years will change the habitability of these warmer areas especially in summer.
i would consider a drastic change in africa and europe, probably drier regions will get more rain while wet regions will get cold.
@@azzzanadra wet regions will get cold? well not really lol
@@endriu55 wouldn't the melting of the ice caps cause a the disturbance of the ocean stream, which would cause europe to get colder?
or am i mixing things?
@@azzzanadra well I am no expert but you're probably thinking of wrong scenarios or wrong places because I live in Poland which has Cfb/Dfb climate which is relatively humid and like 20 years ago we used to have winters where there was snow almost all the time (so it was more of Dfb back then), now when it snows during winters it's maybe for 2-3 weeks at max with snow on the ground. The temperature have shifted up about 2 degrees celsius both in winter and summer when compared to few decades ago. Drier regions are getting hotter, not wetter too. Like this year the summer in Europe is actually even slightly below the norm (having recent years well above the norm) but Spain still has soaring temperatures.
@@endriu55 well it is confusing, i live in north africa and our rainy season was supposed to be in december and january, yet the heaviest rain came in march and april.
7:32 - Forgot to say, Humid Subtropical is not only most populated and most densely populated climate zone but also most frequently appeared in Anime places since many of the Anime series were set at West and East Japan cities, towns and rurals (mostly Humid Subtropical zone distributed).
An important thing to note! :)
Coming from a Peruvian family, I would have never guessed the Subtropical Highland was one of the most hospitable climate zones in the world with such high human density considering it’s a rare and not found everywhere. Funny how this climate is so common in Latin America
Yes, most of the population of Colombia live in this climate zone in that country, despite it being less than 10% of the country's land area. And we all know of the altiplano of the south of Peru, and west of Bolivia.
Did you also see my video about Lima? (Different subject, but you mentioned you're Peruvian).
@@Geodiode yes I have, I always did find Limas climate strange along with the geography, for example it’s always cloudy never really sunny especially along the coast there’s always a eternal mist. You can also find many green parks in the city which is funny because it doesn’t really rain at all either.
this channel is a hidden jam, deserve millions of views though
I've visited 5 of these climate zones and this graph all the more makes sense. Humid subtropical (not bordering continental) has a bearable winter unlike continental/oceanic and while summer may be a bit too hot to tolerate, is still better than that of the rainforest/wet & dry climate's brutal humidity. I hope to experience subtropical highland and mediterranean climate one day.
Icecap: You
Humid Subtropical: The Guy she told you not to worry about
Such a great channel and content, bravo! My perspective: I'm so surprised to see humid subtropical as the most dense! I wouldn't have expected that. I would have thought that people would have sought out a more moderate climate naturally, say oceanic, mediterranean, or warm highlands. I guess my experience with humid subtropical is Texas, and Texas is extremely undesirable from my point of view. The thing I'm surprised at by the top of the list is that it has winter that kills food and it has a hot summer that stuff stops growing in as well. Usually one or the other is a big enough of a bummer, but both of them combined with a dry late summer seems like other places would be a lot better for agriculture. If everyone was surviving off local food and their own backyard, I don't know that we would see this statistic honestly. I don't hate the climate... I'm on a road trip through the humid subtropics of the united states as we speak.
I guess that just because the population is highest there that doesn't necessarily correspond to the highest quality of life or highest level of health and wellness. Most people I know would rather live in Washington, Oregon, or California than the Southeast of the US unless you're on a nice beach in Florida.
Looking at oceanic it looks beautiful but my wife and I love warm weather. Mediterranean is nice if you can manage to get an income there and get enough water through the summer. Subtropical highland still seems to be easy on the temperatures being nice and warm and getting rainfall. We more or less get enough rain in humid subtropics, but the temperature swings are just lame. I attribute it being number one to humanity's indoor temperature regulation abilities be it natural or artificial and food systems. I would say humid subtropical is the most conducive to technologically assisted living?
I always love watching these videos and looking to see how permaculture applies to each place (and for my own preference which ones are most desirable and conducive to the type of food I want to eat and live off of).
Again, congratulation on such an incredible channel. The youtube algorithm must be broken for you to not have WAY more views or subs, this seems like some discovery channel show or something it's so good.
Yes! This is an amazing channel, tell your friends and share! Thanks so much!
@@Geodiode Your videos have spurned me on to do more study on my own.
I love Kenya both because my wife is there and we want to move there, but also in that it has so many climates that seem to be misrepresented or reported incorrectly.
Much of it is assigned to a Cfb climate if you just google some maps, which would be your pacific northwest climate video. I don't see that that necessarily fits though. Those highlands in there with the altitude really create HUGE regions on the rift valley that changes the pattern.
I've been researching on places that are warm but not hot and with plenty of rain there. I then criss cross that with political safety and other considerations. We're trying to avoid cellular network towers as well as much as possible as the density of electrical pollution negatively effects us.
That leads to a lot of places that are densely populated in the country side by the tribes of Kenya and as a result bring extremely high land prices. I have actually found some very suitable places to start investigating on the ground though that may meet most of our requirements but be a little cool or dry.
I think it should be mentioned that many Mediterranean climates are actually quite humid at the coast, but this drops quickly as you move inland, unlike the humid subtropical regions.
I live in the suburbs of Washington D.C and the humidity in summer kills you! If you’re visiting do your self a favor and come between Sep-Jun! The humidity is just that bad!!!
When you say that Mediterranean managed to come above Oceanic through more efficient agricultural process, remember that Oceanic countries tend to export a lot (France, Netherlands&Germany are in the top 6 of food exports, the other two are US and China.)
Edit : when I say export a lot I imply that they export a lot of food partly toward the Mediterrane.
The first part of Europe to receive civilization was Greece. Much was right, including an environment that had useful trees but not dense forests, Livestock thrived without tropical diseases. It was warm enough for subtropical crops (especially olives for oil). With adequate management of water people could get two crops a year.
Don't knock agriculture. Cheap, nutritious food is essential to the Good Life of most people.
I don't find anything "pleasant" about climates with mild winters. Cold and snowy winters are so beautiful and lots of fun, too. Thumbs up for the continental climate!
I'm surprised subtropical highland is so high and that oceanic isn't higher. Fascinating stuff
@@Geodiode I think maybe I underestimated how many people live in a Subtropical Highland climate. Your other video shows that just Ethiopia and Mexico alone have 120 million living there! Add to that those in China, Colombia etc and that's a big chunk of the population! The world has a lot of people living up high! Thanks again for your fascinating work.
@@Geodiode Also -- more than half the US population is in this zone. Likewise Japan and South Korea. .
Oceanic winters can be unbearable because of the high rain and strong winds late autumn to early spring making it feel colder than it ought to be, while summer may not be as warm as some prefer.
Agricultural potential. Tropical highland has very even temperatures good for growing subtropical crops all year. Agricultural potential is about as high as in the subtropical humid climate all year. Oceanic climates have mild winters by mid-latitde standards, but their winters are more like those of summers in the tundra climate. Agricultural productivity is about the same as in the continental climate.
So why is the population density of the continental climates so low in contrast to the more temperate climates? People need more food, fuel, warmer clothes, and better housing just for protection from winter cold. People also need more of a welfare state, which means higher taxes.
could you talk about transition climate zones? like web have climate zones but how does one climate zone change another one, how this zone looks like and stuff like this
👏👏👏👏 excellent case! I was thinking that the two climates with the most population density were Oceanic and Mediterranean cause they're very small in size! The Humid Subtropical won again!
Agricultural productivity is the key to economic success of most countries and regions. Food comes first, and failing to produce food locally makes life expensive.
It would be interesting to see how these zones transitioned during Ice Ages. During the last Glacial Maximum, I wonder where we could find the continental climate, or the humid subtropical.
Continental -- eastern Asia seems to have largely been spared glaciation, so ... south China, southern Japan, and the southeastern US from about Nashville and Richmond in the north to New Orleans and Jacksonville in the south.
Humid subtropical -- Vietnam, the Philippines, coastal Queensland, maybe eastern South Africa and southeastern Mozambique.
The steppe-tundra )mammoth tundra) is a biome that has all but disappeared. Knowing what elephants do to trees, making savannahs out of what otherwise might be forests, mammoths might have made steppes out of what might have been otherwise forests.
Deserts and steppes were larger and in places that they do not now exist. Figure that the Sand Hills are stabilized sand dunes in what would have been an extremely cold and dry area, that must have been like a cold version of the Sahara. Tundra-desert?
Oceanic is the best/most comfortable. Mediterranean and humid sub tropical are unlivable for between 2 months and half the year. Sof being unlivable for 2 months, and greece being unlivable for closer to 4, to the south east usa only being livable in the winter.
I see you’ve updated your maps! Great work sir
Thank you sir..your all three series are most unboaring classes I have ever had...thanks a lot lot lot...keep uploading more please ...🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I'm From Tropical Wet And Dry Climate Zone?
In northern India where I'm from June is very very very ultra humid, one time the temperature was 36°C but felt like 50°C due to the humidity 😭
what a video!! thanks
Awesome video! Thank you so much!
Greetings from Singapore I really enjoy your videos as they are really informative
Your not wrong.. I am fond with climates which are cooler.
As usual..great information and delivery. Congratulations
Much appreciated!
Hello @GeoDiode! I really hope you read this comment! Will you ever make a video on the Polar Vortex? It's a very important climatological phenomenon in North America, specially because it explains why do North American winters get WAAAAY colder than their counterparts in Europe or Africa. It's the phenomenon that brings very cold mornings in winter to my city (Guadalajara) and I'm glad for that.
@@Geodiode oh, it's ok. I thought it'd been ok because you once did a video on the Asian monsoon
@GeoDiode : Could you make a video about the bergmann’s rule. Including examples from animals and humans. I think this fits your channel perfectly.

Humid Continental is GLORIOUS.
too cold and too hot
@@introtwerp If anything, the "utopia" for me would be a city where it's subtropical highlands one year, then in another year it'd be humid continental. I know that this is impossible on Earth, btw
@@zulthyr1852 but why humid continental

GeoDiode yeah. It's more accurate in the Himalayas I noticed but like most köppen maps the Caspian is filled in lol
GeoDiode that's nice. It's always good to have more evidence for how the climate zones look instead of just one
Vídeo muito bom.
Hi, I'm wondering if you could do a video on subpolar oceanic, so tempurature and precip graphs on Lofoten, Scottish Highlands, and maybe add Tromso. Thankyou it would be much appreciated if you do.
Like Ushuaia.
awesome
I wonder where the (rather rare) mild desert (BWn) would rank. In my country, Perú, it hosts around half the 32m population despite being way smaller than the rainforest, hot desert and subtropical highlands that dominate area-wise.
Id I were to amend Koeppen's classification it would be on the ambiguous area of "hot" and "cold" steppes.
I would do one of two things:
1. Set the thermal divide between "h" and "k" so that it is identical with the C/D divide (thus Zaragoza, Spain would be BSh instead of BSk).
2. Several years of severe droughts suggest that San Francisco would go BWk from Csb under an AGW regime... but San Francisco really is subtropical in its plant growth (it has palm trees!). Describing San Francisco's oceanic pattern for temperatures befitting of BWh, which suggests extreme heat would confuse it with Phoenix in thermal regime.
"hk" might be a compromise for maritime deserts and steppes. Save BWh for the places that get extreme summer heat but have no real winters, like Phoenix and Riyadh and BWk for the Gobi and much of Patagonia. Steppes? Sure. BSk would be for places with real winters like Odessa, Ukraine and BSh would be for a place with a mild winter and brutally-hot summers, like Odessa, Texas.
I prefer the second one. Zaragoza, Spain would be "BShk"
Note: I am not suggesting a video on climate change. Even if the difference in temperatures is predictable, rainfall changes might not be. AGW is not controversial; I can tell the difference in fifty years in southern Michigan. Winters are getting milder and summers are getting hotter and longer.
Other great video
Awesome!! :)
Why are you clubbing hot desert and semi arid region as one.you have distinguish between ice cap and tundra.semi arid higher elevation region of India are much more habitable then hot desert region.its should be separated.anaways great article
HI please please please can you speak about Po Valley climate in your next episode ? They are disputing « Semi » Dfa (Hot-summer humid continental climate) and Cfa (Humid subtropical climate). And South Tyrol (Cfa) but winters with a lot of snow (colder than New York)...
Thank youuuuu :)
GeoDiode Ok Ok no problem :))) !
I live in humid subtropical 😎👌❄🔥
(Im from Buenos Aires)
Here’s my list of least favorite to favorite climates!! Icecap, Subarctic, Tundra, Tropical Rainforest, Continental, Cool Desert, Oceanic, Humid Subtropical, Hot Desert, Tropical Monsoon and Savannah, Subtropical Highlands, and my narrow favorite is The Mediterranean Climate!!☀️☀️🌴🌁
I love the Mediterranean climate I'm from Cape Town and I love the dry summer and wet winters. I recently moved to Johannesburg and I miss it
humid subtropical here 🙋🏼♂️
Yup my climate the subarctic is quite sparsely populated and huge.
Yay I'm number 6!
Excellent video you have , but why the hotter climates like humid subtropical (which not the tropical climates) is more habitable than the colder climates , like oceanic?
But nice job making vids
I’d say that one reason is the sunlight. The humid subtropical climates have better sunlight for growing lots of food than an oceanic climate. More food means you can sustain more people.
There are 3 reasons why
1): This is because in oceanic climates it rains a lot of the time in small drizzles. While in subtropical climates the rain is more likely to come in big storms and downpours.
2): The sun never rises that high in oceanic climates, because they are all quite far from the equator. The subtropics are all closer to the equator, and so the sun rises higher in the summer months.
This allows more room for plants to grow, since the shade is more often under the plants than beside them. That means that there is more unused and sunny space, which allows for more plants to grow (most food plants like a good amount of sun in summer).
This is also why tropical rainforests are so dense - the sun is always relatively high in the sky, so there is more sunny, unused space for plants. And all that gets filled up. Whereas in a place like Britain, there’s far less sunny, unused space, so your forests are spread out.
All this means that you can grow more food in less space because there is more room to grow food.
3): The warmer summers can often favor tropical natives that do well with the increased sunlight.
The sunlight reasons can also apply to continental and subarctic climates, which are usually closer to the poles than subtropical climates. Continental and subarctic climates can sometimes be cloudier than subtropical ones also (eg Maine).
Continental and subarctic climates also have a shorter growing season due to earlier onset of freezes in fall and later ceasing of freezing in spring. For food, this leaves what you can do in winter limited without a shelter.
Almost of all the humid subtropical has really fertile land for growing crops, I'm from northern India and there are fields of various crops
Agri8cultural productivity. The humid subtropical climates in some places allow as many as two temperate-climate crops to be grown in one year. This makes agriculture more productive. Such was the one advantage that the Confederacy had over the Union side in the American Civil War
More agriculture at a certain level of economic development means more farm laborers, and they are obvious recruits for industrial labor. Farming shrinks as an employer due to mechanization, and more farm workers can be employed in making the agricultural machinery and rail cars or in food-processing plants. Early-industrial manufacturers did not ordinarily need highly-credentialed workers as do today's government and commercial bureaucracies.
The only places where farming is more efficient in churning out crops seems to be (1) Csb (long, but only "warm" Mediterranean climates like coastal California, where there may be twelve frost-free months, and (2) river valleys (Indus, Tigris, Euphrates, Nile, Darling, Colorado, Rio Grande, and Gila) of hot deserts (BWH) or hot steppes (BSH) which may have brutally-high daytime temperatures in the summer but have pleasant winters. If people work early in the morning or in the early evening, they can do fine so long as they have adequate drinking water. If there is enough water for irrigating crops and watering animals then there is certainly enough for people. It matters little that the water originates in tropical rainforests or cold highlands. Cold deserts and steppes are poor for productivity because the growing seasons are short.
I wonder if people in deserts and tropics (california, florida, india) could survive without AC.
People did survive in those places before AC but they spent most of their time outside. An ambient hot atmosphere is a lot less disruptive then a hot indoors which has the problem of air stagnation that makes it feel like an oven.
That was my thought as well, when in human history did these humid subtropics explode.... at least in the ones that get really hot and dry in late summer
@@Geodiode Thanks for looking into that, I brought up a similar idea in my comment and it may spawn off another video!
In the newspaper Le Monde Diplomatique, an outstanding article from two years ago tells about the development of A/C in the US, and how the country would not be as it is today without it. More and more people are settling in the South with Northern-style houses and lifestyle, thanks to A/C. Having it at home is even mandatory in some states such as Arizona.
mondediplo.com/2017/08/04airconditioning
@Finding Truth in the article i mentioned above : "Obviously it is not unconcievable to live in southern US without A/C : nobody wondered about it just a century ago. However, life was organized according to the climate. Shops would close during the hottest daytime hours, children would be out of school, and people would enjoy siesta after lunch. The houses' architectura and orientation were heat-adapted as well : large doors and windows to let the air breeze, high ceilings, thin walls between rooms, large cornices to protect from sunlight, floors that were raised up from the ground, shadowy porches. If all of this was not enough, people would plug the celilng fan (10 to 20 times less energy-consuming than a bedroom air-con), and would dip their feet into a cold water-filled tub or have a wet towel around the neck."
But yeah nowadays it is so easy to not care about anything and build houses without considering power saving, working full daytime in unbreathable outside heat, since we have the damn A/C... A high-rise building would turn into a oven if the central AC went to break !
Still can’t believe this is for free
the climate that is the most suitable 4 human development is neither the coldest or the warmest, it is the ones right in between those.
Which zone is Norway in? I live in Steinkjer
@@Geodiode Thank you :)
I got like: humm...is something in this map different? but the comments showed what is really happening

My city Chivilcoy (Argentina)is not subtropical humid is semi-oceanic. We havent a Rain season.
How about a video on the most pleasant climate in terms of temperatures and sunlight.
Let me check it out really quick and then I’ll respond to you.
I would say subtropical highland climate
@@mayankkumar4161 Why you think?
@@F22donny Temperature doesn't fluctuate much, summers peak at 27/28 and winter doesn't go below 8/10. No snow or frost. It's because of high elevation in subtropical region.
@@clovebeans713 True. So do you agree with him that it’s the most pleasant?
Why does the humid subtropical portion of the US have such a sharp cut-off point at its western extreme?
That is where precipitation drops off into semi-arid. There's a big difference between Lubbock and Tulsa, for example, in precipitation - even though they are at similar latitudes with similar temperatures. It's a fairly straight line in the western parts of the Plains states.
I live in Hot Desert climate zone, but I wish to live in Humid Subtropical climate zone
What is your preference?
I live in Humid Subtropical, Sao Paulo (southeast Brazil), i love my state climate, we have 4 seasons, its like S. Australia, New Zealand or S. Carolina
Lol northern India has a humid subtropical climate it's seasons are way extreme, summer so hotttttt, May is known for the dry heat, June has humid heat, to be true I can't handle humid heat that much, July- September we have the rainy season it rains almost every day, October and November might be the most pleasant time the days are warm, but as the sunsets it's starts getting cool really quick, December to Mid February Winter so cold!, And one of the characteristics of North Indian winters they're really foggy!! Sometimes the visibility is less than 500m, Late Feb to April is spring ahh the days are warm sometimes it gets a bit hot the nights are cool

Hmm now I know that many people dont like to live in Ice Cap and Tundra Climate than the Cool Deserts and Hot Deserts
Most people like Warmer Climates rather than a Harsh Cold Climate
Your conclusions are only partially correct. You cannot really areas that have been densely populated for a very long time (Europe, China, India...) with places like the US that have only fairly recently been seriously settled and third world countries that can still expect a huge rise in population thanks to progress.
