DOD Needs to Better Incorporate Adaptation Into Planning And Collaboration
![Jese Leos](https://library.aroadtome.com/author/david-foster-wallace.jpg)
A new report from the RAND Corporation finds that the Department of Defense (DOD) needs to better incorporate adaptation into its planning and collaboration processes.
The report, "Incorporating Adaptation into DOD Planning and Collaboration," found that DOD is not currently ng enough to consider the impacts of climate change on its operations and that this is leading to vulnerabilities in its plans and programs.

The report's authors recommend that DOD take a number of steps to improve its adaptation planning and collaboration, including:
- Developing a comprehensive adaptation strategy that outlines DOD's goals and objectives for adapting to climate change.
- Integrating adaptation considerations into all aspects of DOD planning, including mission planning, budgeting, and force structure decisions.
- Collaborating with other government agencies, the private sector, and academia to share information and best practices on adaptation.
The report's findings are consistent with a growing body of research on the need for adaptation to climate change. A recent report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) found that climate change is already having a significant impact on human and natural systems around the world, and that these impacts are only expected to increase in the future.
The IPCC report also found that adaptation is essential to reducing the risks of climate change and that it can be done in a cost-effective way. The report's authors recommend that governments take a number of steps to improve their adaptation planning and collaboration, including many of the same steps that are recommended in the RAND report.
The DOD is a major consumer of energy and water, and it is also a major emitter of greenhouse gases. As a result, the DOD is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
The RAND report's findings are a wake-up call for the DOD. The DOD needs to take immediate steps to improve its adaptation planning and collaboration in Free Download to reduce the risks of climate change and ensure the continued effectiveness of its operations.
Incorporating Adaptation into DOD Planning
DOD is responsible for protecting the United States from a wide range of threats, including climate change. Climate change is already having a significant impact on DOD operations, and it is expected to become even more challenging in the future.
DOD is taking some steps to adapt to climate change, but more needs to be done. The RAND report found that DOD is not currently ng enough to consider the impacts of climate change on its operations and that this is leading to vulnerabilities in its plans and programs.
The report's authors recommend that DOD take a number of steps to improve its adaptation planning, including:
- Developing a comprehensive adaptation strategy that outlines DOD's goals and objectives for adapting to climate change.
- Integrating adaptation considerations into all aspects of DOD planning, including mission planning, budgeting, and force structure decisions.
- Collaborating with other government agencies, the private sector, and academia to share information and best practices on adaptation.
DOD is already taking some steps to develop a comprehensive adaptation strategy. In 2014, the DOD released a Climate Change Adaptation Roadmap that outlines the department's goals and objectives for adapting to climate change. The roadmap includes a number of specific actions that DOD will take to improve its adaptation planning and collaboration.
DOD is also integrating adaptation considerations into its planning processes. For example, the DOD's 2018 National Defense Strategy includes a number of provisions for adapting to climate change. The strategy calls for the DOD to develop new capabilities to respond to climate change, and it also calls for the DOD to work with other government agencies and the private sector to develop innovative solutions to the challenges of climate change.
DOD is also collaborating with other government agencies, the private sector, and academia to share information and best practices on adaptation. For example, DOD is a member of the Climate Change Adaptation Working Group (CCAWG),which is a group of government agencies that are working together to develop and implement climate change adaptation strategies.
However, more needs to be done to improve DOD's adaptation planning and collaboration. The RAND report recommends that DOD take a number of additional steps, including:
- Developing a more comprehensive adaptation strategy that includes specific goals and objectives for each of DOD's mission areas.
- Integrating adaptation considerations into all aspects of DOD planning, including budgeting and force structure decisions.
- Improving collaboration with other government agencies, the private sector, and academia to share information and best practices on adaptation.
DOD needs to take these steps in Free Download to improve its adaptation planning and collaboration and to reduce the risks of climate change.
Incorporating Adaptation into DOD Collaboration
Collaboration is essential for effective adaptation to climate change. DOD cannot adapt to climate change on its own. It needs to work with other government agencies, the private sector, and academia to share information and best practices, and to develop innovative solutions to the challenges of climate change.
DOD is already collaborating with other government agencies on climate change adaptation. For example, DOD is a member of the Climate Change Adaptation Working Group (CCAWG),which is a group of government agencies that are working together to develop and implement climate change adaptation strategies.
DOD is also collaborating with the private sector and academia on climate change adaptation. For example, DOD is working with the University of California, Berkeley, to develop a new climate change adaptation tool that will help DOD planners to assess the risks of climate change and to develop adaptation strategies.
However, more needs to be done to improve DOD's collaboration on climate change adaptation. The RAND report recommends that DOD take a number of additional steps, including:
- Establishing a formal climate change adaptation collaboration network that includes government agencies, the private sector, and academia.
- Developing a joint climate change adaptation research agenda that identifies the most pressing research needs and that coordinates research efforts across government, industry, and academia.
- Creating a climate change adaptation clearinghouse that provides access to information and resources on climate change adaptation.
DOD needs to take these steps in Free Download to improve its collaboration on climate change adaptation and to reduce the risks of climate change.
Climate change is a serious threat to the national security of the United States. DOD needs to take immediate steps to improve its adaptation planning and collaboration in Free Download to reduce the risks of climate change and ensure the continued effectiveness of its operations.
