- Miner49er 7y agoGlobal Warming will cause war if not stopped. To fight to stop climate change is to fight for peace.
- Tenoke 7y agoYou have to admit that's very indirect. Most issues can lead to/exacerbate a war. Most technologies, too.
- Miner49er 7y agoI don't think it's indirect at all. Climate change will very nearly directly cause war. It will and already is causing food shortages, flooding, drought, etc. This will cause mass migration and conflict for resources. It's about as close to directly causing war as a thing can be.
- beokop 7y agoThis might be true, however, I’m of the opinion that the prize should go to people that are making hard choices to de-escalate actual armed conflicts.
