BREAKING. We just disrupted war profiteer and Raytheon executive @OSullivanMeghan as she taught a class about climate change at Harvard University's Kennedy School.
We continued the disruption until @OSullivanMeghan left the classroom.
Then we took it to the hallway.
1) Why are politicians, businesses and even civil society groups talking about climate change as a security issue in the run up to #COP26? I wrote this primer after 10 years of collaborative research and identify five key concerns with #climatesecurity

2) On one level, talking about climate security makes sense. We all want security, after all. The security of a job, a home, good health, safe streets and yes a safe climate too.
3) The trouble is that security has become one of those weasel words, that means something to everybody. My litmus test is always to ask: Whose security? Who will benefit and who will lose? Security for some is often based on creating insecurity for others.
Shame on @britishmuseum for plastering @bp_plc logos over its #Iraq exhibition. BP has extracted massive profits from the suffering of people in Basra (info: behindthelogos.org/iraq/)

In 2003, BP denied it had met the UK govt about Iraqi oil.
I obtained govt minutes of 3 meetings they had with ministers and senior officials in 6 months leading up to war. "Iraq is *the* big prospect. BP are desperate to get in there": fuelonthefire.org/documents#1458
More in my book!
