Default UN Global Warming Report: The Age of the Climate Refugees?

Quote:
Once upon a time, a warming climate tempted the Romans into northern Europe, as far as northern Germany and even into Britain. Hundreds of years later cooling weather drove Germanic tribes from Scandinavia into the south. Vikings settled Greenland after it warmed up, only to leave when it froze again... Climate, in short, has long triggered mass migration. And the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warns that more may be on the horizon.

These refugees in Chad are escaping violence in Darfur. But the displaced
of the future may be running from the climate.
