THE NATIONAL SECURITY IMPLICATIONS OF CLIMATE CHANGE
Stavros Atlamazoglou | March 10, 2022

When people debate the negative consequences of climate change, they seldom think about the national security implications that it has. The earth, our habitat and lifeline, shapes our everyday lives in a more direct way than we want to believe.
 
Beyond the banal daily considerations that are related to climate (should I take an umbrella at work? Am I dressed warmly enough?), there are deep underlying conditions that have the potential to shape the geostrategic environment and affect our lives in wholly different ways.

Climate change is real

Although global awareness about climate change has increased considerably over the past few years, current policies and pledges by countries around the world are insufficient to meet the goals set by Paris Agreement in 2015. Then, an unprecedented coalition of 196 countries agreed to fight climate change and limit global warming to 1.5˚C (2.7°F) of the pre-industrial levels.

Another favorite of the left disinformation, the scare tactic.  The implication is our military cannot adjust to  changing weather.  Why is there so much activity in the Arctic by the military right now if they can't adjust?  Did Eisenhower wait for good weather to launch D-Day?  Was part of WWII in Africa?  Was the Battle of the  Bulge fought in the summer?  How about Chosin Reservoir where our troops didn't even have winter clothing?  How about Viet Nam?  This global warming misinformation which authors claims without any proof is how the left gets it's lies out. 888sunglass

Our military is trained to operate in some hideous climates, hot, cold, wet, and dry.

The greatest national security danger I foresee from climate change is the destruction of strategically necessary industries which make us beholden to potential enemies for the very materiel we can fight with, not to mention conduct day to day living.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
