National Security in a Changing Climate

The Economist examines how climate change is reshaping national security, arguing that rising temperatures, extreme weather and resource pressures are becoming core defense and foreign policy concerns rather than purely environmental ones. The piece highlights how governments are being forced to plan for climate-driven instability, migration and strategic competition alongside traditional military threats.
