I agree. Saudi Arabia talks a lot about "effects of the measures to
mitigate climate change" (mainly, it think would sell less petroleum),
but forgots the effects of climate change, as the mega-disasters and
the climate refugees.
Regards.
P.S. I would like see more democracy in Saudi Arabia.

> Our proposed convention would largely operate prospectively; assistance
> to climate change displaced persons would be based on an assessment of
> whether their environment was likely to become uninhabitable due to
> events consistent with anthropogenic climate change such that
> resettlement measures and assistance were necessary. In other words,
> displacement is viewed as a form of adaptation that creates particular
> vulnerabilities requiring protection as well as assistance through
> international cooperation.
