An Op-ed piece authored by ESSIC / AOSC Professor Raghu Murtugudde was published in the India edition of the Huffington Post. In the piece, Murtugudde praises the country’s decision and leadership in its signing of the Paris Agreement, but expresses concern regarding a lack of connection between climate change issues and national security. He explains that although climate change is never the root cause of civil or international unrest, it can ultimately become a flash point or a trigger for national security issues.
