Climate change update



The military is preparing for climate change, even if the White House isn't.

The big problem is that the Pentagon is the largest contributor to global warming of any institution on Earth.  Thus unless we convert the military to the 'Natural Guard' (doing emergency relief work after severe weather events) and turn the military production system into a sustainable technology development process then we are all sunk.

The upside is that we get more jobs when we make the transition away from fossil fuels.  See one of the studies that reveal the numbers here.
