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.
