| Summary |
"Climate change poses a major threat to US national security and the survival of the American people, as well as the existence of every country on the planet. As a "threat multiplier," climate change will encourage states to turn to war in order to obtain the resources their people need and which they can no longer get by non-violent means. The US military will need to prepare for a more dangerous and disruptive future, both domestically and internationally, to safeguard the nation's citizens. This book highlights the risks and challenges the military will face in providing for the nation's security, and the effect climate change will have on the character of war. Additionally, it provides recommendations for what the military will need to do to prepare for a climate-affected future"-- Provided by publisher. |
