Environmental degradation and #ClimateChange are worsening our global crises.

From #ClimateSecurity in #Somalia to climate-focused #mediation in #Iraq, we integrate this awareness into our peace efforts.

@rbreich I continue to believe that we won't see action on #climatesecurity until we talk about it and fund it as a #defense priority, which it is.

NORFOLK, VA – During the 2023 Summit in Vilnius, NATO released three major reports on #NATO #ClimateChange strategy, including current strategic environments, best practices, and guidelines on adaptation. Additionally, Canada has agreed to host a new Centre of Excellence on Climate Change and Security, supporting NATO’s increasing role in #ClimateSecurity. https://www.act.nato.int/article/environmental-security-climate-change-solutions/

Questions around #ecologicalsecurity as distinct from #environmentalsecurity or #climatesecurity have historically not gotten the same sustained attention from those of us working in the research and policy realms. Glad
Rod Schoonover & Dan Smith for helping fill this gap with this "Five Urgent Questions on Ecological Security"
SIPRI brief https://www.sipri.org/publications/2023/sipri-insights-peace-and-security/five-urgent-questions-ecological-security

Are national policymakers knowingly ignoring #sustainability pathways that would get us to global #netzero sooner because their own territory will not recieve short-term gains?

What is the net-zero lag time that results from failing to prioritise #climate security?

I recently wrote an article on circular pathways for pathways for Scotch Whisky co-products that highlights the urgent need for this debate.

Thanks 🇩🇪Amb Leendertse @GermanyUN and 🇳🇷Amb Deiye @NauruMissionUN for co-chairing today's meeting on climate & security.

Improving our understanding of how the climate crisis contributes to insecurity is critical to addressing #climatesecurity challenges across the UN agenda.

What happens in Germany's #Luetzerath will not stay in Luetzerath - 2023 will see more conflicts between the social (#energysecurity - keeping the lights on) & the ecological (#climatesecurity - keep the planet safe) - it will split the emerging ecological class @NikolajSchultz3@twitter.com

BRIEFER: Climate Change as a “Threat Multiplier”: History, Uses and Future of the Concept

“Threat multiplier” has become a widely used term by scholars and practitioners to describe climate change implications for security in both the policy realm and climate-security literature. ... https://climateandsecurity.org/2023/01/briefer-climate-change-as-a-threat-multiplier-history-uses-and-future-of-the-concept/ via @csrisks 🐦 #climate #security #ClimateSecurity #ClimateChange #policy #defence #military #ThreatMultiplier

A good news story for #watersecurity & #climatesecurity as we close out 2022.

"Currently, freshwater researchers have reliable measurements for only a few thousand lakes around the world. SWOT will push that number into the millions."
