 and National Security Challenges and Opportunities Posed by Climate Change\

 ith Secretary John Kerry will move into a larger venue at the O'Hare Academ
 ic Center. A limited number of additional seats are now available for this 
 exclusive event. Select "Kerry Fireside Chat Only" when selecting tickets.

 \nNational security leaders have long recognized that the environment plays
  a major role in complex scenarios.  Decreased rainfall can lead to drought
 \, for example\, which\, in turn\, can lead to hunger and even famine.  Whe
 n the right mix of triggers is present\, these forces can lead to political
  violence\, civil war\, and international conflict.  In a remarkable half-d
 ay conference organized by the Pell Center at Salve Regina University and t
 he U.S. Naval War College\, a dynamic array of public leaders\, scholars\, 
 and experts will unpack the direct connection between changes in the Earth’
 s climate and the national security challenges and opportunities facing the
  United States of America.\n\nFeaturing\n\nThe Honorable John Kerry\n\n68th
