Doing the 'blame game' is missing the much bigger picture of the climate change crisis facing the planet and what we ALL need to do NOW. Its not up to somebody else to solve, we all need to solve it.
The 3rd World will suffer most initially, but doubtless we aren't too concerned about that. At least we have the resources to respond to these emergencies, many countries don't. The only crisis we'll be worried about is the resultant immigration one.
By the time the whole world does wake up to it and takes unified action it'll be too late, if it isn't already.
