The Pentagon

 

A Pentagon study suggested using an abrupt climate change scenario as the basis for planning. If climate change is as abrupt as the one 8,200 years ago, and it happens in the next twenty years, we would have no time to pursue benign strategies. The study suggests that “No-regrets strategies should be identified and implemented to ensure reliable access to food supply and water, and to ensure national security.” They didn’t say exactly who would have no regrets. In the short term, the Pentagon would not regret having a bigger budget to cope with this scenario.

 

A recent colloquium took these ideas farther.

 

There is a plan for “Naval Operations in an Ice-Free Arctic”.
