Renewable energy investment should come from defence budgets, say retired military leaders

A group of retired military leaders is advocating for renewable energy investments to be classified as part of national defense budgets. They argue that the climate crisis poses significant threats to national security, particularly from aggressors like Russia. By reallocating funds towards low-carbon power, countries like the UK can enhance their resilience against these threats. This approach not only addresses climate change but also strengthens national security, making it a crucial conversation for policymakers.
