Join the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment for the latest in a series of online talks with authors on books exploring climate and environmental challenges and solutions.

Sherri Goodman, the Pentagon's Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Environmental Security will discuss the urgent connections between climate change and national security in her book, "Threat Multiplier: Climate, Military Leadership, and the Fight for Global Security." Her book gives readers an inside account, from the Pentagon to the battlefield, of today’s military on the front lines of a changing climate, the energy transition, technology upheavals and new health challenges. 

Goodman, a senior fellow at The Wilson Center, serves as the Secretary General of the International Military Council on Climate & Security, the leading international organization for national security and military leaders on climate and energy security. Recognized by both military and environmental officials for her leadership in national security, energy and sustainability, Goodman has twice received the Department of Defense Distinguished Service Award, the Environmental Protection Agency’s Climate Change Award, the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Environmental Peacebuilding Association, and an Honorary Doctorate from Amherst College.
