None of which can be controlled or mitigated by anything the defense department will attempt to do.




Even if I were to accept this pablum at face value, wouldn’t it be equally affecting all our enemies or potential enemies - being “global” and all? So why is it something we should particularly address FROM A NATIONAL DEFENSE PERSPECTIVE?

It doesn’t make much sense to me.

I’m all for keeping our military ready no matter what the climate conditions, but I don’t see why anyone would ever see the need to try and have the military directly address “climate conditions.”

This is utter horse shite. There is no unprecedented severe weather. Of course, they don't need no stinking facts when they have a narrative to spin.

FOREWORD To keep the nation secure, we must tackle the existential threat of climate change. The unprecedented scale of wildfires, floods, droughts, typhoons, and other extreme weather events of recent months and years have damaged our installations and bases, constrained force readiness and operations, and contributed to instability around the world. Climate change touches most of what this Department does, and this threat will continue to have worsening implications for U.S. national security.

existential threat


Their words, not mine.

These climate whackos would have you believe that the ever-changing climate is a threat to our very existence.

Let's examine that shall we.

First, we know from the geological record that Earth has been hit multiple times by meteors and similar objects from space. Those impacts left craters that we can observe from higher altitudes. Those impacts also caused colossal damage to the Earth and the things living on it.

Second, the climate nuts believe that burning petroleum products is causing climate change. We have been burning these fuels for roughly 150 years.

Finally, these nutjobs want us to believe that just 150 years worth of burning petroleum will wipe us out when we somehow have survived all of the mayhem caused by meteor strikes that left mile wide craters on Earth's surface.

General Millie and its underlings can so suck some more Chinese penises.

I love this incurious nonsense. There is very little evidence that fires out west were due to climate change.

So we going to bomb it away?

Nothing the military does is economical or helping the environment. That is not its place or role. Perhaps use the EPA?

So...The Department of Defense, published a Climate Risk Analysis?

This is sort of like when the CDC decided to tell home owners they no longer had private property right, right?

What's next...The Department of Education will declare war on Portugal?

This is how Agenda 2030 will be ushered in if they have their way.

What a load of crock....I think all of that is to take one's mind off of REAL threats such as China who are unfortunately not 100 years away from threatening us.
