While humanity faces the worsening of the triple planetary crises of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, their impact on international peace and stability is becoming ever more visible. Experts increasingly point to the roles that environmental factors can play as ‘threat multipliers’ as well as drivers accelerating or intensifying vulnerabilities, risks and conflicts, both existing and potential. But how do extreme weather events like floods or small changes in average temperature lead to conflict? Join the RCCHU and its fellow Alejandro Martín to find out more about climate-related security risks!
