A newly released analysis by Canada's spy service, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), warns that climate change could leave Canada vulnerable to harm from adversaries. The analysis predicts that global warming will threaten security as countries seek to exploit their adversaries' climate change-related weaknesses. The documents obtained through the Access to Information Act highlight various risks, including foreign interference in Canada's transition to a low-carbon economy and attempts to manipulate the climate through geoengineering. While Canada may not be at significant risk, smaller and more vulnerable developing states could face greater challenges. The analysis also discusses the potential impact on Canada's food and water supplies, energy security, and Arctic sovereignty. [Extracted from the article] |
