Threat Multiplier: Climate, Military Leadership, and the Fight for Global Security with Sherri Goodman

OCT 7, 202440 MIN

Description

In episode 215 of America Adapts, I’m joined by Sherri Goodman. Sherri is Secretary General of the International Military Council on Climate and Security and a senior fellow at the Wilson Center Polar Institute. Sherri shares her decades of experience at the intersection of national security and environmental policy, offering fascinating insights from her newly released book, Threat Multiplier: Climate, Military Leadership, and the Fight for Global Security. We explore how military leaders are confronting climate change as a pressing national security threat, from early skepticism within the Department of Defense to today’s urgency around the issue. Sherri shares real-world examples of climate impacts on global security, including Arctic territorial disputes and conflict driven by resource scarcity. Our conversation highlights the evolving military strategies around climate adaptation, the need for precise climate modeling and ‘climate translators and how the politcization of this issue impacts our national security. This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in the nexus of climate action and national security.
