Given the high-stakes nature of the nuclear enterprise, the Department of Defense and other key stakeholders must better prepare for, mitigate, and adapt to these climate challenges. Importantly, this analysis should be viewed as a descriptive assessment of potential future outcomes based on current trends, not as a prediction. What actually transpires will depend on how the United States prepares for, mitigates, and adapts to these challenges Notes "July 2023"--Cover Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 35-43) Notes Description based on online resource; title from PDF cover page (Carnegie Endowment, viewed July 16, 2023) Subject Climatic changes -- Military aspects Military bases -- Maintenance and repair -- Environmental aspects -- United States Deterrence (Strategy) Deterrence (Strategy) SUBJECT United States -- Armed Forces -- Weapons systems -- Maintenance and repair -- Environmental aspects Subject United States.
