Andrew Holland Quoted by Association of Opinion Journalists
ASP’s Senior Fellow for Energy and Climate, Andrew Holland, spoke last week at a panel event hosted by the Association of Opinion Journalists (AOJ), and a summary of his talk appeared in an article by AOJ.

Climate change is acting as a “threat multiplier” – while not by itself creating conflict, climate change contributes to underlying problems that already exist. From the article:
