Hi all –

Below is short social guidance to amplify a Washington Post piece on how the U.S. military is planning for climate change in the face of President Trump’s denial of settled climate science. As always, feel free to adjust this guidance to best fit the voice and tone of your organization – please let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you,

Marcy
