The panel of Dutch and international experts on climate change and security issues will expose the dangers of a new climate security agenda in which the powerful respond to the climate crisis with military and corporate solutions. But it will also share the stories and practices of communities worldwide building the inspiring alternatives that promise a just transition to a climate-changed world.

"What if government and corporate elites have given up on stopping climate change and prefer to try to manage its consequences instead? As historic UN climate talks begin in Paris, this event will examine issues raised by a new book, The Secure and the Dispossessed: How the Military and Corporations are Shaping a Climate-Changed World.
