Problem: Which of the following statements concerning climate change and human history is FALSE? Group of answer choices Whether climate warms or cools is key, as past 'culture collapses' occurred during cooling, while 'golden ages' were always warm periods. Global societies (those strongly linked to a network of societies), can be greatly affected by climate change that occurs in distant areas. Climate change seldom occurs in a uniform manner across the whole Earth, so its impacts can vary significantly between different regions. How a society responds to climate change is important, as during the same change some societies will thrive while others collapse. Volcanic climate impacts tend to only last a few years; longer changes are more likely due to changes in atmosphere or ocean circulation.
