Climate Refugees

The NY Times had an important article yesterday about the issue of climate refugees.  Because climate change poses an existential threat to some nations and a threat to international stability elsewhere, it appears that the U.N. is inching closer to making climate change a security issue under the jurisdiction of the Security Council.   Since the Security Council is the only part of the U.N. with any real teeth, this could be a very significant development in the long-term.
