TAP talks about the military’s concerns with global warming, and its interest in clean energy:
What effects is the military worried about?
Increasing water scarcity, rising temperatures, increased extreme weather events, more natural disasters, particularly in low-lying areas in Africa and Asia, [and] reduced agricultural production, putting stress on areas where people already don’t have enough food and water. So increased humanitarian-relief and natural-disaster situations [are] very real effects of climate change exacerbating areas that are already politically unstable. A second, very real dimension is the military’s dependence on fossil fuels — on having to bring water and fuel to the front. That’s putting the lives of our soldiers at risk every day.
