Navy could make climate change courses compulsory
FEBRUARY 14, 2024
By Paul Homewood

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 unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

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.

US Navy ships in the Western Pacific have a habit of colliding with seamounts and other ships.
