Question by SYCT: how environmental problems can be considered a problem for national security?
The Earth’s resources are without a doubt dwindling. While the direct cause of this phenomenon may be debatable, there is cause for concern that competition over resources will lead to conflict within the international system. If you can write a memo to President Obama and explain how environmental problems can be considered a problem for national security, what will you write? Discuss this with reference to three problems within the global commons. Are these short-term or long-term problems? What efforts have been made to solve these problems? What needs to happen in order for the Earth’s environment to thrive in the future?

Business dealings with the fascist country of Saudi Arabia might be a good place to start that memo.
