Navy Conducts Climate Action Exercise With Caribbean Partners
June 27, 2024 | By Joseph Clark, DOD News |   

The Navy conducted a tabletop exercise alongside Caribbean partner nations to explore ways to enhance climate readiness and resilience throughout the region.
 
The two-day event in San Juan, Puerto Rico, marked the third in a series of exercises held in recent years designed to validate the Navy's Climate Action 2030 strategy. 

Participants addressed many scenarios reflecting the real-world impact climate change is having in the region, ranging from wildfires spurred by arid conditions, strains on power grids and crop production due to high temperatures, and damage to critical infrastructure caused by more frequent and intense hurricanes. 

Vaughn Miller, minister for the environment and natural resources for the Bahamas, said the exercise captured the wide-ranging impacts climate change is having in the region and further underscored the importance of regional partnerships in addressing the threat. 

"The Bahamas is facing several challenges in the face of climate change, and over the last few days we've explored opportunities for cooperation with the United States and our regional partners," Miller said.

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

I can't think of a better way to push back against the growing influence of Russia and China in the area than to plan for global warming! wink777

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.

"The Navy conducted a tabletop exercise alongside Caribbean partner nations to explore ways to enhance climate readiness..."

In the meantime, the People's Liberation Army/Navy is conducting real exercises to determine how to destroy the U.S. Navy.

Who is going to win?
