Eglin, Norfolk climate danger

What if the Navy’s largest base in Norfolk, Va., sinks? It could happen, but it’s also not an isolated problem to the East Coast, as climate change alters coastlines around the globe. A report from the American Security Project identifies Naval Station Norfolk as America’s fifth most endangered military base. The report also lists Eglin AFB, Fla.; Diego Garcia, Bahrain and Guam as being particularly vulnerable to climate change. (Source: National Interest 07/05/18) Eglin is among the largest Air Force bases comprising more than 640 square miles.
