There's several reasons for this:

Firstly, Caelumians prefer a maximum cold climate. That means their supplies are penalized in any climate greater than cold-3. Most other races favor neutral climates, or even heat. Few races actually LIKE cold-3, and it's difficult to sustain a constant cold-3, so usually, you will suffer a supply penalty, unless you have a strong, and very cold, dominion.

Secondly, Caelumians are hungry. As size-3 people, they eat a lot. Mammoths eat even more! So a comparable number of Caelumians eats twice as much as an army of hunams! This is why you must carry twice the supplies.
