You still have the capacity to surprise me Britannist. Based on your previous behaviour and expressed nationalistic views, I would have thought you would have taken notice of what the Royal United Services Institute has to say. For example, from Wiki:-
Royal United Services Institute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
RUSI describes itself as
“ the leading forum in the UK for national and international Defence and Security ”

There has and no, not all.

But I suspect if you closely examine some of the reasons for some of the previous wars you will find and ‘aggressor looking for resources’ or one group denying resources’ to another group.

In the case of AGW, a possible scenarios are shortages of food due to desertification, lack of water from Climate changes and aggressive migration.

I know that the CIA studied these scenarios years ago, so we must presume other national defence agencies have done the same.

I accept it isn’t a ‘war’ in the usual sense, but many historians consider adverse climatic shifts affecting food production was a major factor in initiating the French Revolution ( let them eat cake ?)
