Climate Change Removed as “National Threat”

President Trump’s National Security strategy will not include the weather as a threat to the nation.

“Climate change is not identified as a national security threat,” an official said, adding that the position is consistent with Mr. Trump’s decision earlier this year to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate accord that was signed by President Obama. The official said the importance of “climate and environmental stewardship are discussed” in the plan.

Nazi Trump is one of the worlds staunchest supporters of the Jewish State, so it only makes sense that racist Trump would advance a global security strategy that actually helps brown people.

“Climate policies will continue to shape the global energy system,” a draft of the National Security Strategy slated to be released on Monday said. “U.S. leadership is indispensable to countering an anti-growth, energy agenda that is detrimental to U.S. economic and energy security interests. Given future global energy demand, much of the developing world will require fossil fuels, as well as other forms of energy, to power their economies and lift their people out of poverty.” [WUWT]

Developing countries need abundant, affordable, and reliable energy to pull themselves out of the third world. Developing those resources and investing in cleaner ways to use them makes a lot more sense for impoverished nations than handing sketchy leaders a check.

The US can lead and forge relationships with nations by using its own production to keeping energy prices stable while offering technical support that improves efficiency and results in better overall environmental outcomes.

I can’t say for sure that’s part of this package, but those sorts of arrangements are far more advantageous to our security than climate cult rants and better for global security as well. Nations with affordable energy are more likely to result in a growing middle class. Next thing you know they are embracing things like property rights, independent judiciaries, and more open domestic political dialogue.

Stable nations are founded from within by everyday people who have things worth protecting from the thieves in their own government.
