US needs better climate forecasting, wargaming, report finds
APRIL 05, 2022 JACQUELINE FELDSCHER - TNS
The Biden administration should invest in better climate forecasting technology and ensure climate change is factored into military planning and wargaming, according to a scorecard released Thursday.
President Joe Biden has generally done a good job in designating climate change as a national security priority, but further success will depend on backing up those words with dollars and action, according to an evaluation of the Biden administration’s climate security progress that was organized by the non-partisan Climate and Security Advisory Group. The progress report and new recommendations—the first from the group—was endorsed by more than 70 former officials, including eight retired four-star officers, as well as former CIA director William Webster, former NATO deputy secretary general Rose Gottemoeller and former Pentagon policy chief Michele Flournoy.
