US Department of Defense, October 2014.
In a case of denialists linking to denialists linking to denialists linking to denialists... A retweet by Anthony Watts alerted me to an article at Climate Depot, which was a repost of an article by the HockeySchtick, which was a repost of an irrational and scatty article at the Wall Street Journal.
From there I went to Google, which took me to a climate website, Bellona.org, which linked to a climate change plan from the US Department of Defense.
2014 Climate Adaptation Roadmap
The US Department of Defense has released its 2014 Climate Adaptation Roadmap. It lists three goals:
- Goal 1: Identify and assess the effects of climate change on the Department.
- Goal 2: Integrate climate change considerations across the Department and manage associated risks.
- Goal 3: Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders on climate change challenges.
