Notes:   From the same article:

"Scientists say it has become increasingly clear that worldwide precipitation is shifting away from the equator and toward the poles. That will nourish crops in warming regions like Canada and Siberia while parching countries — like Malawi in sub-Saharan Africa — which are already prone to drought.

"While rich countries are hardly immune from drought and flooding, their wealth will largely insulate them from harm, at least for the next generation or two, many experts say.. .

"'The inequity of this whole situation is really enormous if you look at who's responsible and who's suffering as a result,'" said Rajendra K. Pachauri, chairman of the United Nations climate panel."
