Résumé
Geopolitical expert Paskal discusses how western nations are vulnerable to hurricanes, storm surges and rising sea levels, and what that could mean for their stability and economic development; how the thawing Arctic is causing countries to wrangle for control over… vast resources, strategic shipping routes and geopolitical leverage; how changing precipitation patterns, extreme weather and water shortages are creating severe disruptions in India and China, and how that could affect their relations with each other and the world; how rising sea levels may shift borders; and what could happen in coming decades, and how to avoid the worst of it. c2010.
