Greening Defence

The Greening Defence podcast investigates the ways in which the UK defence sector is working to respond to the challenges and evolving security risks from the effects of climate change. In collaboration with our partners at the Conflict and Environment Observatory, this RUSI podcast brings together key figures from across defence, industry and academia to discuss how the various military sectors are approaching the issue, how policy is evolving, whether technology might hold the answer, and what cultural changes are required to ensure success. While some changes will be dramatic, others will be about streamlining and improving business-as-usual to ensure our forces are prepared for every eventuality and to ensure that they are able to operate on a sustainable footing into the future. Greening Defence seeks to cut through the buzz words and rhetoric around climate change to have a meaningful, constructive conversation about the difficulties faced, but also the amazing potential for UK Defence on a global scale.
