It is necessary to prevent Global Cooling!
As a result of the climatic pessimum of the early Middle Ages, an ecological catastrophe happened on Earth.
Wine and grain no longer thrived in northern areas and at high altitudes. Crop failures and susceptibility to disease, infant mortality and the death rate of young children and the elderly increased. Storms and floods resulted in land losses on the North Sea coast and in southern England. There were many floods in Italy in the 6th century.

The Bishop Gregory of Tours reports from the 580s from the Franconian Empire of constant heavy rains, thunderstorms, floods, famines, bad harvests and late cold spells to which birds fell victim. In Norway, 40% of farms were abandoned in the 6th century. The French historian Pierre Riché gives 13 years with famine and floods and nine years with extremely cold winters and epidemics for the period from 793 to 880.
