Also the news here is that DARPA is interested in this, not that oysters protect shorelines – this has been known for some time. Thinking about climate change through the (slightly more practical) lens of national defense is a smart approach, perhaps it will bypass a lot of the B.S. involved in the discussion.

Not private world, public military. Under the previous admin, in 2017 climate change was removed from the National Security Strategy. Budget can be affected, etc.
