Once everyone is sufficiently panicked by global warming, they will all move away from the coast in a bit of hurry.

You lot can be our slaves and dig up minerals in the desert for us in exchange for a daily yum cha breakfast. To add insult to injury it will have to be cooked using renewable energy, which means you will have to go hungry on cloudy days. Of which there will be plenty, thanks to climate change.
