'The book completes its mission to show that climate change is a driver of conflict, an obstacle to conflict resolution, and a creator of strategic shocks, tensions, opportunities, and risks... A must read for anyone interested in defence, security, or climate change.'
General Tom Middendorp, International Military Council on Climate & Security (former Chief of Defence of The Netherlands)
'Climate change is the single most significant long-term defence issue. Its consequences will shape threats, challenge governments (as competition for food, water increases) undermine military capabilities, and drive economic instability. The book offers insights that are at once timely, important, and alarming.'
Tobias Ellwood MP, Chair of the UK House of Commons Defence Committee, 2020-2023
'The climate crisis is the top geopolitical issue of our time. From the High North to equatorial Africa, global heating will be the major driver of the conflicts and threats we will face in the coming decades. This vital and timely book challenges us to marshal a much better response, urgently.'
Tom Fletcher, University of Oxford (former UK Foreign Policy Adviser to three UK Prime Ministers)
'There are uncomfortable gaps between knowledge, practice, and reality when it comes to how climate change is shaping human and hard security. This book is an important contribution to closing that gap, showing how to stop worrying about securitizing climate and start climatizing security.'
Hon. Sharon E. Burke, Ecospherics (former US Assistant Secretary of Defense for Operational Energy)
'Climate Change and Insecurity is a clarion call for the military and security sectors. This exceptional collection shows how climate change and its impacts are reshaping the world and how nations must prepare for what is to come.'
Captain Dr Andrea Cameron, US Naval War College
'For those familiar with this field of study and the publication scarcity associated with this topic, this book represents a refreshing topic review, with a few novel moments. For those unfamiliar with this topic, Climate Change, Conflict and (In)Security: Hot War is a must-read, as it provides an insightful and expeditious general overview.'
Zachary Z. Horsington, Small Wars Journal
'..this voluminous account gives students, researchers, and policymakers an opportunity to decipher the climate-defense nexus in a broader context. When it comes to tackling climate change, policymakers need to be ahead of the curve. This edited book gives them much-needed intellectual impetus and foundations to effect substantive changes in the way climate change is fought.'
