Another NASA/Goddard disciple preaches that ol'-time global warming hoax religion: In an attempt to combat the alleged ravages of CO2, we allegedly need to retain U.S. Navy hospital ships, and we allegedly need "increased and enduring education in the developed and developing world"

U.S. Navy Experience Shows Climate Alterations, Invited Speaker at Sandia Labs Says

“The findings are independent of climate models,” said Antonio Busalacchi, professor and director of the Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center (ESSIC) at the University of Maryland and former chief of the NASA/Goddard Laboratory for Hydrospheric Processes.

...The committee learned that the Navy is confronting more extreme temperatures worldwide, he said, along with the melting of sea ice and glaciers, the rise of sea levels at isolated locations, more frequent high-intensity storms, more droughts, regional flooding, ocean temperature increase and declining reserves of potable water because of increased salinity...

Among other unknowns are the effects of climate change on projected global population growth and migration, which could greatly amplify geopolitical stress. “We need increased and enduring education in the developed and developing world,” he said, “so we can mitigate these effects.”

Because increased humanitarian assistance and disaster relief could strain U.S. systems, he said that U.S. Navy hospital ships should be retained.
