No such official definition exists, but I have met them.
They know.

I asked this man why he was in #Calais.
He told me: 'Nothing grows in Chad. Nothing has grown for 10 years, nothing will grow. What am I supposed to do?'
He is a climate refugee. @alex_randall

My view is we have two choices:

To act or not.

A. If we do not, civilisation as we know it, likely collapses.
B. If we do, we have to change society radically, hopefully for the better.

'business as usual' is to not act.
Winning slowly is losing.
