Security and Climate

I attended the recent USF forum on National Security, Energy and Climate, with former featuring former Senators John Warner (R-VA), Bob Graham (D-FL), Vice Admiral Dennis McGinnis and Thomas Crisman. They share the affect of climate change and energy dependence shared by the general population and the military.  This includes the unrest and chaos that will occur when coastal areas are flooded around the world and the national energy grid is affected. Hopefully, having the military establishment on board with a goal to do better community planning (even if it is based upon national security).  It is good to know that the military needs coincide more with the general public than any particular power. They indicate that the security of the world depends upon energy independence and preparing for the many negative  ramifications of sea level rise. They know we are not prepared.
