As the Atlantic hurricane season revs up, some coastal communities in the United States and small-island nations in the Caribbean are still recovering from last year’s record-breaking damage. Extreme weather events like these not only endanger the billions of people who live along the world’s coastlines, they also undermine our national security, write the editors of a new report, “Building Coastal Resilience for Greater U.S. Security,” recently released by the Hoover Institution, the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, and the Woodrow Wilson Center.

The report will be launched at a Capitol Hill briefing on July 16th at noon. Register for the briefing here.

Where: Senate Dirksen - Room G-11, Washington D.C. 

When: 16 July 2018, 12-1 p.m.
