There are two factors present in this scenario of migration:
1. The rising water levels: This acts as an environmental push factor as it poses a threat to James's current home and his safety. It is pushing him to move away from the coast to avoid the potential consequences of the rising water levels.
2. The warm climate near the ocean: This can be considered an environmental pull factor as it attracts people to live in such areas due to the desirable weather conditions. However, in this scenario, it is not strong enough to outweigh the environmental push factor of rising water levels.
Therefore, the factors present in this scenario are an environmental push factor and an environmental pull factor.
