NATO climate HQ to be in Montreal
NATO’s climate change centre (pardon me for feeling that the wording centre of excellence is about as bogus as it gets) will be established in Montreal.
Note that the point of this “centre of excellence” is not to fight climate change, but to assess the impact of climate change on the security of NATO.

This has to do with the Arctic. As it is warming ( many times faster than anywhere else) to the delight of many. The vast resources ( oil, gas, “green”rare metals) it and brand new shipping routes are open to exploitation. Russia, China, and of course the mafia oligarchs are positioning themselves for the advantage.
