11 Findings Projected climate change poses a serious threat to America s national security Climate change acts as a threat multiplier for instability in some of the most volatile regions of the world Projected climate change will add to tensions even in stable regions of the world 11
12 Climate Change Presents Many Threats 2003 European heat wave killed more than 35,000 people These conditions are forecasted to be common by 2040 Image courtesy of NASA Earth 12 Observatory

15 An Inter-related Set of Challenges Energy Dependence Climate Change National & Homeland Security 15
16 Regional Impacts Europe Europe will be focused on its own borders. There is potential for fracturing some very strong alliances based on migrations and the lack of control over borders. ADM Pilling 16
17 Regional Impacts Africa Climate change will facilitate: weakened governance economic collapse human migrations potential conflicts Stability operations and humanitarian missions could increase for U.S. 17
18 Regional Impacts Middle East Water security will be threatened two-thirds of the Arab world already depends on water sources external to their borders Loss of food and water security will increase pressure to emigrate across borders 18
19 Regional Impacts Asia Almost 40 percent of Asia s 4 billion people live within 45 miles of the coast Inundation of coastal areas, with loss of settled areas and agricultural land Threats to water, and spread of infectious disease will stress the region 19
20 Regional Impacts Western Hemisphere Coastal areas vulnerable to sea level rise coupled with more intense hurricanes Loss of glaciers will strain water supply in several areas, such as Peru and Venezuela Migration into the U.S. will likely increase 20
21 Regional Impacts: Arctic Arctic Ice Cap 21 Sep 2005 Source: NASA, Goddard Space Flight Center 21
