U.S. Navy and Climate Change
Few people are aware that the Navy has taken climate change seriously for years. I recently came across this 2010 link to the U.S. Navy Climate Change Roadmap. For more recent related news, google “U.S. Navy climate change”.
Excerpt:
“Climate change is a national security challenge with strategic implications for the Navy. Climate change will lead to increased tensions in nations with weak economies and political institutions. While climate change alone is not likely to lead to future conflict, it may be a contributing factor. Climate change is affecting, and will continue to affect, U.S. military installations and access to natural resources worldwide. It will affect the type, scope, and location of future Navy missions.”
