Is he also going to consider the increase in arable land?

Did he say it is caused by man, or just addressing the need to adapt to changes?

Did he say we need to put burdensome regulations and taxes on businesses that send our manufacturing jobs to 3rd world countries in order to combat this change?

Yes, these are certainly things that could affect military operations.
This seems taken out of context.

Perhaps, if asked, he would say the rest of us can follow the military's lead and recognize and adapt to the threat.
We have always led the world in that sort of thing.

You don't adapt to changes in the climate?

I adapted. I kept my shorts out all winter. I'm sure many others did too

1) Yes it is a SECURITY threat
When you constantly scare the shite of people, eventually they will do irrational things
2) Link me to where he said it was manmade
Because if he did, then the way to fix it, is by eliminating tons and tons of people (who might pose a security threat)
3) Pretty much destroys the globalist mindset, then
Because if climate change is coming, we might run out of basic human necessities, and you can bet your arse that sharing those resources will go out the window, too. Once again, that poses a security threat
4) Hes admitting that there is no way man can change that
So hes preparing SECURITY measures, just in case

He isn't wrong. It's just not the military's job to fight it.
