Navy could make climate change courses compulsory
FEBRUARY 14, 2024

No, it’s not April 1st!
 

The Royal Navy is considering introducing compulsory climate change courses for all sailors, The Telegraph can reveal.



A leaked briefing paper suggests that all Navy personnel could be forced to attend online training sessions about the impact of climate change on defence.

“While this course is not yet mandated, it does provide a comprehensive overview on the science behind climate change and most importantly its relevance to defence,” the paper reads.

The document, published last autumn, reveals that the Navy’s climate change and sustainability unit is “exploring opportunities” to pay for sailors to study postgraduate courses on global warming.

Environmental scientists could also be given berths on board Britain’s warships to conduct research, the paper says.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Shouldn't they also have compulsory classes on the tooth fairy too? :tongue2:

If anything, this gives me shivers that we have that level of naivety at that level for folks who are suppoosed to protect us.  I have a hard time believing they have bought off on the scam.

Think the  Chicom military discusses this or the least bit worried?

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Aye, Timber, I was thinking that, too.

How much of a "Royal Navy" is left, any more...?

I hope the Navy still offers navigation and bathymetry courses.
