UN Rings False Alarm on Climate Refugees (again)
In 2005, the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) issued an alarming warning that global warming would displace 50 million people, so-called “climate refugees,” by 2010. Last April, the UNEP was humiliated when the Asian Correspondent published an article, “What Happened to the Climate Refugees?,” noting how, from 2005-2010, populations increased in the very areas of the world that the UNEP had claimed would suffer the largest losses of people due to climate change. Shortly thereafter, the UNEP removed mention of “50 million climate refugees” from its website, and told the German periodical der Spiegel that it wasn’t responsible for the statistic.Where are the "death threats"? | Australian Climate Madness

Au revoir!GetUp boss Simon Sheikh did the same. In the morning of the rallies, he told crowds we had to slash our emissions. By nightfall, he was on a jet to the US.
