Anybody remember this article? Global warming a bigger concern than terror

[Dr.Phool]

I was browsing around at Altercation , http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14134971/#OldNews

And Eric had a link to this article.

http://observer.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,6903,1153513,00.html

I remember reading it 2 years ago, and it was never picked up on by the MSM.

What the hell does it take to get peoples attention away from idiots like Mel Gibson?


The article:

Now the Pentagon tells Bush: climate change will destroy us

· Secret report warns of rioting and nuclear war
· Britain will be 'Siberian' in less than 20 years
· Threat to the world is greater than terrorism

Climate change over the next 20 years could result in a global catastrophe costing millions of lives in wars and natural disasters..

A secret report, suppressed by US defence chiefs and obtained by The Observer, warns that major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas as Britain is plunged into a 'Siberian' climate by 2020. Nuclear conflict, mega-droughts, famine and widespread rioting will erupt across the world.

The document predicts that abrupt climate change could bring the planet to the edge of anarchy as countries develop a nuclear threat to defend and secure dwindling food, water and energy supplies. The threat to global stability vastly eclipses that of terrorism, say the few experts privy to its contents.

'Disruption and conflict will be endemic features of life,' concludes the Pentagon analysis. 'Once again, warfare would define human life.'
