'climate-insensitive' originates from the combination of 'climate' and 'insensitive', where 'climate' refers to weather conditions and 'insensitive' means not affected by external factors.

'climate' from Old French 'climat', and 'insensitive' from Latin 'insensitivus', eventually forming the modern English term 'climate-insensitive'.

Initially, 'insensitive' meant 'lacking physical sensation', but over time it evolved to mean 'unaffected by external factors', leading to the current meaning of 'climate-insensitive'.
