We look at a new report from the Pentagon that says military bases along the coast aren't moving fast enough to protect themselves from the effects of climate change. Plus, the U.S. Department of Justice is investigating a Facebook group whose members post Islamophobic comments. And, M.G. Hennessey tells us about her new book for middle-grade readers, "The Echo Park Castaways."
