Former military leaders rightly point out that climate modification is a matter of nationwide security (UK should consider food and climate part of nationwide security, state top ex-military figures, 29 May).
What is needed in action is a thoughtful, tactical approach that focuses in on actions that are useful and effective in these difficult times and will assist construct the UK federal governments strong structures of national security and protected borders.For example, arguably the biggest near-term hazard to UK security is the mass population displacement that Lt Gen Richard Nugee describes.
About 3.5 billion individuals reside in an arc around Europe, across Africa, the Middle East and Asian countries such as Pakistan, India and Bangladesh.
Individuals in these regions are currently confronting floods and heatwaves of approximately 50C that are making big locations uninhabitable.
Rural neighborhoods are being pushed into conflict and migration, while food production and materials to cities are being affected.Russia has actually already determined this as a strategic way to weaken European democracies.
It stokes dispute and weaponises individuals for example, pressing a wave of 4million Syrian war refugees into Europe and Turkey.
The payoff has been the rise of pro-Russian rightwing celebrations across Europe.
With temperature levels increasing much faster than expected, this issue will accelerate throughout the present parliament.
It needs immediate action as theres no other way to contain it.What can we do? The UK has a strong track record of using global aid to promote farming in these vulnerable neighborhoods.
The best approach is regenerative farming, which produces food, builds resilience to extreme weather condition and draws carbon out of the environment as it restores soil health.
It is a strategy for mitigating, and adjusting to, climate change.
We must restore and expand this programme within the staying aid and environment finance budget.It is important to our nationwide security that we combat environment change in the house, through decarbonisation, and that we promote regenerative farming at home and in frontline nations around Europe.Dr Adam ParrHertford College, University of Oxford Have an opinion on anything youve read in the Guardian today?
