Plot of Children of Men 2 or legitimate environmental concern? You decide.

Talks of a “secret” report from the Pentagon to George Bush about how climate change is going to destroy us reads like the plot of a summer Blockbuster:
A secret report, suppressed by US defence chiefs and obtained by The Observer, warns that major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas as Britain is plunged into a ‘Siberian’ climate by 2020. Nuclear conflict, mega-droughts, famine and widespread rioting will erupt across the world.
The document predicts that abrupt climate change could bring the planet to the edge of anarchy as countries develop a nuclear threat to defend and secure dwindling food, water and energy supplies. The threat to global stability vastly eclipses that of terrorism, say the few experts privy to its contents.
The fact that I can’t find it on any other news sources gives me a bit of comfort about the whole thing. Anyway, have a read and let me know what you think.
