Climate change as a matter of fact: U.S. Department of Defense

U.S. Military Not Doing Enough to Prepare Bases for Climate Change, GAO Warns.  (Inside Climate News, 12/14/2017)

The auditing arm of Congress has warned that the military is failing to adequately plan for the risks that climate change poses to hundreds of overseas facilities, and that engineers at these sites rarely include foreseeable impacts in project designs.  

The Government Accountability Office, Congress's nonpartisan oversight agency, wrote that while the Defense Department has identified that climate change and its effects will threaten many of its facilities, these installations are not consistently tracking costs they're already incurring because of extreme weather.
