In this episode, we discuss how the US military is approaching climate change; teaching this topic to military officers; learn what military branch is ahead on climate planning; how other countries like China and Russia are aggressively ramping up their adaptation efforts; the process of prioritizing a national threat and what we might expect to see in a Biden Administration. This episode will ground you on the fundamentals of climate change and national security.

Topics covered:

• What is the U.S. Naval War College.
• History of the US military thinking about climate change.
• Developing climate curricula for the military officer class.
• Does the DoD actually see climate change as a direct military threat?
• Learn what branch is farther ahead on climate planning.
• Are other countries, like China and Russia, factoring in climate change in their national defenses more effectively than the US?
• We discuss “aggressive adaptation” by other countries. 
• How does the US military prioritize a threat (and what does that mean for climate change)
• Discussion on the upcoming conference, The National Security Significance of a Changing Climate: Risk and Resilience in the 21st Century
• How to make climate change relevant to rank and file military personnel
• What can we expect in an Biden Administration.
