Description
xI decided to print this book that was released in January 2017 because it demonstrates the very real impact of global warming and the effect it will have on national defense. This book identifies potentially suitable adaptation actions and quantifies the costs and benefits.
Climate change deniers can stick their heads in the sand and pretend climate change is not real, but this book explains the science behind what is happening and clearly documents what should otherwise be obvious. The sea level will rise, the land is sinking in some places and groundwater will be impacted. The global weather is getting worse so even if the sea level rises slower than expected, hurricane storm surge and increased rainfall will wreak havoc with the electric grid, natural gas pipelines, municipal water and sewage treatment plants. Climate change will also result in humanitarian stressors for the DoD to deal with natural disasters. That said, we can expect wildfires in parts of the country not known for wildfires and flooding everywhere along the coasts. In our books "Sea Level Rise Maps" we show where coastal flooding will begin starting as early as the year 2030. We can expect to lose more than fancy beach houses. At least 30 major airports in cities like Boston, New York's JFK and LaGuardia, Newark, Philadelphia, Miami, San Diego and San Francisco will all be completely underwater by the year 2100 - and there is nothing anyone can do about it. Even if we reduce our carbon footprint to zero today, the process has already begun. Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this book so you don't have to.
First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour.
It's much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com
