Factsheet: Climate Change Impacts on National Security
Climate change poses a direct threat to U.S. national security today. U.S. scientists tell us that a melting Arctic, more frequent droughts and floods, and superstorms are all examples of the changing climate in the United States. These present a greater challenge than just new and different weather patterns: they threaten the resiliency and readiness of the U.S. military through their impact on military infrastructure, disaster response, and the economy.
