As I wrote in Full Green Ahead in the current issue of Mother Jones, the US Navy is paying close attention—and giving far more than lip service—to the problems underway from a changing climate. But until now no one's said it quite so loudly as Admiral Samuel Locklear, commander of the US Pacific Command.
Locklear met privately with scholars at Harvard and Tufts universities on Friday and said that the biggest long-term security threat in the Pacific region is climate change, reports the Boston Globe, and that significant upheaval related to the warming planet is:
"Probably the most likely thing that is going to happen... that will cripple the security environment, probably more likely than the other scenarios we all often talk about." Locklear continued: "People are surprised sometimes, [but] you have the real potential here in the not-too-distant future of nations displaced by rising sea level. Certainly weather patterns are more severe than they have been in the past. We are on super typhoon 27 or 28 this year in the Western Pacific. The average is about 17."

But remember the Navy has a reputation of finding prostitutes, but this must be the first top Naval Officer who lowers himself to this level to promote the TOTAL LIE called Global Warming/ClimateChange.
Well Duuuhhh! It is the Sun Stupid.
Look what Obozo has succeeded in doing to the leadership of our Navy!
FUBO!
Admiral Samuel Locklear,
I would think that any process that added water to oceans would be GOOD for the NAVY!/s;)
Yeah, no doubt sir Admiral, sir.
Every day I wake up, I literally cannot even go outside because climate change is just so dangerous.
I just never know what it’s going to do.
You should shoot your rail gun at it until it dies, putz.
If that Polish Solar Submarine is a success, then that may lead to reductions in navy carbon output.
He is just a total Obozo suck A$$.
Obozo is totally destroying our military and no one says a word. What a load of Crap.
I feel totally ill.
Anyone who has a lick of sense is automatically passed over for promotion the past few decades. PC yes-men and politicians are all that’s left. The Globalists and Marxists have done their job well.
What a moron, I can envision him yelling at the ocean waves demanding they surrender.
Second biggest threat ? Guam tipping over.
hee hee hee
Nuke subs don’t have a carbon signature do they. How about the Nukes themselves.
They have conventional shapped charges to get over the lack of critical mass, but after that it is not hydrocarbon energy.
Please tell me no one in the military this this seriously.
I visualized the Navy sailing on dehydrated water.
Without water, the navy would be like,like NASA!
hee hee hee
I don’t know, I think it’s the same Polish military technology department that put so much effort into developing a nuke hand grenade in the 1980s.
They have stacked the military with their people just as they have stacked the judiciary and key state offices and for the same purpose.
To use against us when the time comes.
This is a relentless plotting foe, and it is never going to stop until we stop it.
And after we stop it, we are going to have to stop it again.
Freedom can never rest, and neither can the free.
Yep, I have actually seen the case of these beasts. They are not small. Small ones are length of a refrig and pretty heavy.
Have some interesting memorabila about them. That is another subject.
Hard for me to imagine that a Lying Commie B_tard like Obozo controls the button.
You might be thinking of the backpack nuke, which was real and a Special Forces delivered weapon.
How much higher can he go?
whew, and i was worried about North Korean Nukes and China....
Claim That Sea Level Is Rising Is a Total Fraud
Sea levels began to rise 18k years ago at the end of the last glacial period. They have risen about 135 meters since then which is an average of 7.5 millimeters per year. That is an average of 750 mm per century (29.5 inches) which is far more than the average over the last century.
From 1880 to 2000 sea level rose about 20 cm or just under 8 inches. Far far less than the nearly 30 inches per century average over the last 18,000 years.
Although it makes little difference now, you're missing the target.
Hussein is a Muslim who is playing commie. He is enabling the left wing moonbats to destroy the west. Then the muzzies plan on taking over.
You'll see the difference when the muzzie terrorist attacks start killing your family in malls, schools and workplaces everywhere.
Obama and the muzzy terrorist laugh at Americans.
My dad.... USAF oak leaf....always said to get full bird or above you had to be political....especially in peacetime
