      Why doesn’t everyone pack it up and move back to the savannahs of Africa? It seems like the only fair way to resolve all the issues that have stemmed from questionable practices during past migrations.

                  That would lower the temperature by about 5 degrees Celsius compared to sea level, which doesn’t help enough with African temperatures.
