The proliferation of violent conflicts and social upheaval around the world is likely to increase as a result of climate change. That is the view of Michael Klare, Five College Professor of Peace and World Security Studies at Hampshire College.
Klare, who has written widely on U.S. military policy, is delivering a special lecture today on war and peace in the climate change era.
His lecture at 4:30 this afternoon at Hampshire College’s Franklin Patterson Hall is sponsored by the Five College Consortium.
He spoke with WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill.
