National Security Implications of Climate Change in Florida

Florida plays an important role in U.S. national security. It is home to the headquarters of three Combatant Commands: U.S. Central Command, U.S. Special Operations Command, and U.S. Southern Command. It houses over 20 bases, representing every branch of the U.S. military. It provides key access to irreplaceable training grounds for U.S. pilots in more than 180,000 square miles of Department of Defense (DoD) controlled airspace over the Eastern Gulf of Mexico. Climate change poses clear risks to these security assets.

Please join Lieutenant General Norm Seip, USAF (ret.) for a discussion of the climate threats to military infrastructure, operations, and readiness in Florida, as well as the broader threats to U.S. national security interests.
