So, the question
remains: Does engaging hundreds of millions of people on the subject of

The report on global warming as a source of
conflict sees climate change amplifying discord in parts of Africa and Asia, but not enough to destabilize governments — and even as its impacts through 2020 in rich countries
remain small.
