Threats Climate Change Poses to Global and National Security
March 14, 2019, 7:00 PM
FreePlease join the Goldfarb Center at Colby College for a lecture by Brigadier General Stephen A. Cheney, USMC (Ret.) of the American Security Project on the threats that climate change presents for national and global security. The world is heating up. Despite skepticism from climate change deniers, our bases and stations are literally going under water, and our military is seeing conflict accelerate — thanks to climate change. Increasing catastrophic weather is causing undeniable humanitarian crises — to which we have to respond. What does the future portend? What should we be doing about it? Who is most affected?
Lecture parking is available behind the Alumni Center. Please come early (6:45) to enjoy coffee and dessert!
