From a scientist-friend:
I suggest you check http://www.jri.org.uk/index.php/briefings-pdf/ – the top paper by Sir John Houghton for best-informed Xrn perspective. He is former chair of IPCC scientific panel.
I did, and would highly recommend everyone read it:

The cost of the likely damage will be much greater than the cost of mitigating action…
I have pointed out the very strong moral imperative that applies to the developed world to share their wealth and skills with the develop-ing world as they adapt to damaging climate change and seek to develop sustainably. I have also argued that, for the strong necessary action by governments, business and industry to be possible, it is important for the basic facts of the science and consequences of climate change to be better understood and accepted by the popu-lation at large. Urgent consideration needs to be given to the practical measures required for this to be achieved. It presents an enormous chal-lenge to all of us and to many organisations. I believe that grasping the challenge is particu-larly urgent for Christians and other faith com-munities whose combined action could make a large difference.
