Pentagon orders commanders to prioritize climate change in all military actions
Washington Times ^ | 2/7/16 | Rowan Scarboroug

The Pentagon is ordering the top brass to incorporate climate change into virtually everything they do, from testing weapons to training troops to war planning to joint exercises with allies. A new directive’s theme: The U.S. Armed Forces must show “resilience” and beat back the threat based on “actionable science.” It says the military will not be able to maintain effectiveness unless the directive is followed. It orders the establishment of a new layer of bureaucracy — a wide array of “climate change boards, councils and working groups” to infuse climate change into “programs, plans and policies.” The Pentagon defines

OK; Reagan would use something like this in a very effective campaign ad.
Lets hope our nominee is smart enough to do so.
Spank the crap out of the Dem nominee with things like this.

People can grasp specific things like this.

You said it. There are no words.

I can think of some. I can’t wait until this surrealistic, unimaginable reign of our Enemy in Chief is over an basically ALL of his acts which are almost entirely unconstitutional and unconscionable, IMMEDIATELY reversed.

Not at all. The West German military forces have been cut to 200 total Leopard II A4 tanks.

Guess they Gotta remove all dark camouflage as it tends to absorb sunlight and replace it with all white or silver metallic surfaces to reflect sunlight back into space, eh?

Might cost a ton of money and reveal where our troops and equipment are but what the hey, we need to prevent climate change as Obama says it is our primary enemy.

Does this madness from public officials just keep getting worse or is it me that is going crazy?

There is a REASON the Pentagon is often referred to as the Puzzle Palace OR as Eschelon's Above Reality. It never seems to stop. When I was with the 9th ID's G4 as the Assistant Plans & Ops Officer, anytime the Division had to do any sort of prolonged FTX off post, we had to order PORTA-POTTIES for the troops to use. Then an environmental impact report had to be generated. Understand, this was 1982! Imagine how much worse it has grown.

I will say this, the most powerful man in the entire division is not the Commanding General. By far. It is the Officer who controls where the Porta-Potties will be emplaced and who controls how often they are pumped. THAT man could create a FIEFDOM. He could summon a Helicopter for his personal use on any given day, should he desire it. He could manipulate the actions of staff officers across the division. Battalion XO's bowed in the direction of the Division HQ and General Staff Offices. How do I specifically KNOW all of this? Ain't tellin'!

I guess that rules out nukes now.

Depends. If the threat is assessed as GLOBAL WARMING and a series of nuke strikes will produce a Nuclear Winter.... Well there you go. Solution.

Does anyone think that the Russians, Chinese, Iranians, North Koreans, or others give one rats -— about Global Warming? Or pollution in general? Nope.
