气候难民
目前估计已有2,500万至3,000万气候难民。到2050年，人数可能会增加到2亿或高达10亿。
尼泊尔第1个「气候难民村」，有150人因气候暖化引起水源短缺而被迫进行重新安置。 （2010年7月） 冲突
美国情报体系（Intelligence Community）认为，地球暖化是一项严重的安全威胁。美国首席情报分析员托马斯‧芬加（Thomas Fingar）表示，世界上的很多地区，不久将因为洪水和干旱而导致大规模移民潮和动荡不安。 （2010年） 证据指出，全球暖化是达佛（Darfur）发生暴力事件的主要原因。（《大西洋月刊》〔Atlantic Monthly〕，2007年） 疾病
气温升高，导致疟疾、蓝舌病病毒、西尼罗病毒、登革热和其他疾病额外传播给数以百万的人，这些人住在纬度较高地区或其他大陆地区，本来不会暴露在这些传染病之中。
由于气候变迁，到2080年，会增加4亿人遭受感染疟疾之威胁。（联合国 ）
随着全球暖化，预计将有更多的呼吸系统疾病（如气喘）和精神疾病（由于灾难所引起）。 死亡
气候变迁引起的灾难，在1年里已造成315,000人死亡，另有3.25亿人受到严重影响。（全球人道论坛〔Global Humanitarian Forum〕，2009年） 粮食短缺
在本世纪内，世界一半人口将面临严重的粮食短缺。 （《科学》杂志，华盛顿大学的研究人员，2009年）
俄罗斯、德国、加拿大、阿根廷、澳洲、乌克兰、巴基斯坦等国，农获量已因干旱或洪水而减少。 （2010年9月）
2010年8月，全球粮食价格上涨了5%。在莫桑比克，因面包涨价所引起的粮食暴动导致10人死亡、300人受伤。 （2010年9月） 由于气候变迁加上印度与中国人民对动物饲料的需求增加，导致食物价格高涨，引发了2008年致命的全球粮食暴动。（联合国世界粮食计划署〔World Food Programme〕)
在2009年，世界饥饿人口首次突破10亿人。
全世界每年超过900万人死于饥饿和营养不良，其中500万人是儿童。 缺水
世界上的河流正处于全球性的「危机状态」。供应近80%世界人口的水资源正遭到严重威胁。根据研究，近叁分之一的水源也因生物多样性的丧失而面临高度危险。 （美国威斯康辛大学麦迪逊分校的研究学者彼得‧麦金太尔教授〔Peter McIntyre〕暨纽约市立学院的建模专家查尔斯‧佛洛斯马提〔Charles Vörösmarty〕） 最近的缺水区域报告：
中东地区的供水已经缩减为1960年的四分之一。 （阿拉伯环境与发展论坛〔AFED〕，2010年） 由于干旱，底格里斯河和幼发拉底河水位已降至平常的叁分之一以下。 （联合国机构间情报和分析单位〔IAU〕）
英国气候越来越热，夏季越来越干燥，河流水量已减少 80%，可能导致极端的缺水情况。 （2010年英国政府科学办公室〔Government Office for Science〕）
供应我们世界一半人口的井水之地下水源正逐渐枯竭。（澳洲蒙那许大学兰斯‧安得斯碧教授〔Lance Endersbee〕）
11亿人无法获得安全的饮用水。（世界卫生组织〔World Health Organization〕，2005年） 参考来源
