Wargaming Climate Change

If you missed "On Point" last night, click the title above. One of the best things on climate change & the Pentagon/CIA I have run into of late.

Guests (from the On Point Site):

Andrew Revkin, environment reporter for The New York Times and author of “The North Pole Was Here: Puzzles and Perils at the Top of the World.” He writes the Dot Earth blog.

Amanda Dory, deputy assistant secretary of defense for strategy. She is lead the drafter of the next Quadrennial Defense Review, which is due in February 2010.

Sharon Burke, vice president for natural security at the Center for a New American Security. She has directed an international climate change war game and other energy security projects in conjunction with experts in and out of the military.

Gen. Paul Kern, a retired four-star Army general. He now on the military advisory board of CNA, a non-profit research organization which operates the Institute for Public Research and the Center for Naval Analyses. In the last two years, CNA has issued two seminal reports on climate change, energy and national security. He is president and chief operating officer of AM General, which supplies the military with Humvee vehicles.
