The report says a combination of global starvation, war, disease, drought, and a fragile power grid could have cascading, devastating effects.
The report, titled Implications of Climate Change for the U.S. Army, was launched by the U.S. Army War College in partnership with NASA in May at the Wilson Center in Washington DC. The report was commissioned by Gen. Milley during his previous role as the Army’s Chief of Staff. It was made publicly available in August via the Center for Climate and Security, but didn't get a lot of attention at the time.
Bizarrely for a report styling itself around the promotion of environmental stewardship in the Army, the report identifies the Arctic as a critical strategic location for future US military involvement: to maximize fossil fuel consumption.

Anyone who's dropped a cellphone in the bath knows that water and microelectronics don't usually mix well. But at IBM's Swiss lab in Zurich, marrying the two is becoming almost commonplace: microprocessors with water coursing through microchannels carved deep inside them are already crunching data in SuperMUC, an IBM supercomputer - with the heat that the water carries away used to warm nearby buildings.

27 April 2013 : "Groundwater is pouring into the plant's ravaged reactor buildings at a rate of almost 75 gallons a minute. It becomes highly contaminated there, before being pumped out to keep from swamping a critical cooling system. A small army of workers has struggled to contain the continuous flow of radioactive wastewater, relying on hulking gray and silver storage tanks sprawling over 42 acres of parking lots and lawns. The tanks hold the equivalent of 112 Olympic-size pools."
The water is locked up in a mineral called ringwoodite about 660km (400 miles) beneath the crust of the Earth, researchers say. Geophysicist Steve Jacobsen from Northwestern University in the US co-authored the study published in the journal Science and said the discovery suggested Earth’s water may have come from within, driven to the surface by geological activity, rather than being deposited by icy comets hitting the forming planet as held by the prevailing theories.

A British parliamentary inquiry has heard that more than $650m ( £420m) worth of European Union aid to Africa may have been badly spent. In some cases, not enough local people were trained in how to maintain the necessary equipment - so after a few years it just stopped being used. But the biggest problem was finance - or getting long-term agreement from the communities and governments of poorer countries on how the water supply would be funded
– Det finns en stor potential för att minska risken för konflikter som är baserade på tillgången till vatten, det säger UNESCO:s biträdande chef för vetenskap, Gretchen Kalonji. – Om en månad hoppas vi kunna få tillgång till vattnet och första prioritet är invånarna i regionen, säger miljöminister Judi Wakhungu. Enligt UNESCO saknar idag omkring 17 av Kenyas 41 miljoner invånare tillgång till rent dricksvatten.
