The Arctic Climate Change and Security Policy Conference: Final Report and Findings

by on

Arctic Climate Change and Security Policy Conference: Final Report and Findings, Kenneth Yalowitz, James Collins, Ross Virginia Report, June 2009

  • “This final report summarizes the panel discussions from a conference on arctic climate change and security policy sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Dartmouth College, and the University of the Arctic which was held at Dartmouth College last December. Key points:
    • An efficient and multilateral process for responding to environmental disasters is the Arctic’s most pressing need.
    • The Arctic is unlikely to be a security flashpoint in the short term. State-to-state negotiations and multilateral institutions have effectively handled territorial claims thus far, and neither Russia nor the United States is looking for a new source of tension.”
