The NIC was established in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attack, to coordinate the work of all the intelligence agencies, including the FBI, CIA, and NSA.<\/p>\n<p>Amid all the headline allegations by the Intelligence agencies, and the pushback from the incoming administration, it is important to remember that we have thousands of analysts sifting data, working to identify long-term threats. While concerns about Russia, our elections, and hacking may be the major news, lower-level stories can have great significance too.<\/p>\n<p>The public, non-classified, version of this report is ten pages and can be downloaded at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dni.gov\/index.php\/newsroom\/reports-and-publications\/214-reports-publications-2016\/1415-implications-for-us-national-security-of-anticipated-climate-change\">&#8220;Implications for US National Security of Anticipated Climate Change&#8221;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Implications for US National Security of Anticipated Climate Change&#8221;, a recent report by the National Intelligence Council (NIC) identifies two big risks to US national security: extreme weather events and &#8216;systemic&#8217; changes like sea level rise.
