  • The Political Consequences of Climate Change

    Paul F Herman, Gregory F TrevertonARTICLESurvival2009Cited by: 1

    Over the medium term, climate change and security are not likely to involve simple causality and a stark, one-to-one correspondence.

The scale and scope of remedial actions needs to be commensurate with …
