Accelerant Of Instability

A quote from a CNN article about the Pentagon's shift in future military thinking:

"The review calls these climate change scenarios, "accelerant of instability" and suggests the military will have to plan on operations where climate (rising sea levels, reduced ice in the Arctic) would be a factor in planning. In addition to what climate change effects could bring in terms of the spread of disease, mass migration and a scarcity of resources."

Hold on to your hat.
