Much of this comes from the IPCC 4th Assessment Report (google IPCC) and you may do a quick read through the link below.

Also the recent speech made by Gordon Brown post the G8 meeting is interesting as the developed world is finally acknowledging all this and he speaks openly of the 350 ppm and 2 degrees Celsius numbers.

2…. worry about stateless, voteless, prisons, open prisons, arrests, detained without charges, evicted from their own lands, embargoed from fishing, restricted movement, resettled forcibly in alien places, occupying army ravage forests, occupying navy ravage seas, …..

3.The environment of the space they are standing on or sleeping on is dangerous right now. They wish to have a peaceful political climate.

4.They are even leaving this planet before they become aware of the concept of ‘climate change’.

I first started typing it here as a comment but soon realized it was going to be a bit too big. So dedicated a post for it. Please take a minute to read if you can afford that.
