the Pentagon's perspective on climate change

Summary

The Pentagon, unsentimental and politically conservative, might not seem likely to be worried about climate change<U+2015>still linked, for many people, with polar bears and coral reefs. Yet of all the major institutions in American society, none take climate change as seriously as the U.S. military. Both as participants in climate-triggered conflicts abroad, and as first responders to hurricanes and other disasters on American soil, the armed services are already confronting the impacts of global warming. The military now regards climate change as one of the top threats to American national security<U+2015>and is busy developing strategies to cope with it. --, Amazon.com
