The US military burns more fossil fuels than any institution on the planet – more than over 100 countries combined. We can’t stabilize the climate without reducing military emissions, but they are currently exempt from all major international climate agreements. They aren’t tracked and publicized in a transparent way or talked about much either.

We’ve got to change that. One place to start learning about this important topic is with the new documentary, Earth’s Greatest Enemy. It illuminates many of the real-world consequences of vast US militarization for not just the climate, but for air quality, water contamination, human health, and the well-being of living things across the globe.
