Military #veterans know about rapid deployment in times of crisis. #ClimateChange is a crisis. Here’s my 2/14 testimony to the NY Senate EnCon Committee on behalf of Veterans for Climate Justice:

In my testimony, I cite 2019 Pentagon findings showing that #climatechange undermines military readiness: two-thirds of our operationally critical bases are now threatened by flooding, drought, wildfires & and other extreme conditions driven by climate instability.
Also, our intel community’s 2019 annual report, which finds that #climatechange is a source of global chaos, posing risks that are “likely to fuel competition for resources, economic distress and social discontent through 2019 and beyond.”
