“A present threat to national security”

Posted on 13 June 2014 by ecoquant

Say what you want about the U.S. military and the Pentagon, no one in the United States does long range planning like they do, with the possible exception of one or two forward-looking corporations. Certainly, the U.S. Congress does not. Apparently, Presidential administrations do not. Certainly, the media does not. And the general public does not, for the most part.

I’m glad someone is.

CLIMATE. It’s everything, like it or not. It will be everything. Why? We picked it to be, by ignoring it for 20 years.
