Scientists and political leaders published a comprehensive report about the affects of climate change. “The atmosphere and oceans have warmed, the amounts of snow and ice have diminished,” said United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon…”The U.S. military just issued their quadrennial defense report, and they said that climate change or global warming is the greatest threat to our national security.
