and then there's a report leaked to the observer:

"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."

billmon doubts the integrity of the author, posing the question whether this is a new case of fearmongering in order to proliferate more dystopia:

"Some, such as investigative journalist Ken Silverstein, have described Marshall as little more than a "pork-seeking" missile, constantly dreaming up new threats to justify new weapons systems or defense spending programs. Even his supporters tend to portray him as a "professional worry wort" fascinated by extreme, low-probability scenarios. And the climate change report is just that: a scenario, not a forecast."
