In its latest tract on how to kill people and depopulate the globe, the British Crown’s premier policymaking think tank, the Royal Institute for International Affairs (RIIA)—known as Chatham House—on Sept. 29 published “Building Global Climate Security,” arguing that since climate change poses such a serious threat to global security, it will now be necessary to rethink “traditional security concepts,” and understand the “interconnected demands” of climate security, sustainable human development and “regenerative economic systems.” These, the document affirms, are all needed to address “the most serious threat to global security we face.” The military is to play a major role here, so RIIA warns that military priorities must be changed. But, not to worry, because the security community has already advanced the “securitization agenda of climate change by recognizing climate change as a critical factor that militaries will have to deal with.” Climate change worsens “conflict environments,” you know, as Afghanistan, Mali, and the Tigray region of Ethiopia prove, and it is of course responsible for internal displacements, migrations, etc.
The message here is that the military—the “security community"—is going to play a major role in enforcing green fascism and depopulation with all that this implies in terms of violating sovereignty and intervening in nations’ internal affairs to defend the environment. Remember `Responsibility to Protect?’ RIIA enthusiastically notes that since there are growing calls to legally define “ecocide” as a crime under the International Criminal Court (ICC), the chance of the armed forces being called on to defend against ecocide “looks increasingly likely.” Do nations damaging the environment get invaded? RIIA suggests a scenario in which national law enforcement agencies might partner with militaries to defend the Amazon “and other key habitats” from destruction. But, then there is an even “more complex intervention", such as “countering illegal wildlife trade.” The use of force? This could involve acting “directly against actors causing ecological damage or enforcing a mandate to protect shared ecological assets.”
