Climate Change Threatens Security

Antxón Olabe & Mikel González (in Spanish) | October 21, 2008

Climate change "is not a traditional problem of national security, but one related to our collective security in a fragile and increasingly interdependent world." ++ The European Commission recently released a report saying that climate change is indeed an international security issue. ++ The growing scarcity of water will increase migration, and the struggle for resources will breed conflict. ++ The UN Security Council should address this issue - India, Japan, Brazil, Indonesia and South Africa must be included in this discussion.
