 WASHINGTON (AP) - Top intelligence analysts are diving into the politically sensitive issue of climate change, but some Democrats in Congress are demanding even more.
The House Intelligence Committee approved a provision late Wednesday as part of a spy budget bill that would require the National Intelligence Council to produce its highest-level assessment — a National Intelligence Estimate — specifically on climate change.
The bill, which the House could take up next week, calls on analysts to study the political, social, agricultural and economic risks associated with climate change over the next 30 years.
