Connecting the Pentagon & climate crisis
This video explores how the Pentagon and the military-industrial complex is a massive polluter in terms of both emissions and chemical waste. In addition, the video looks at whether or not these environmental and monetary burdens caused by the military-industrial complex are justified.
