Building military infrastructure like Gaza’s tunnel network can produce more CO₂ than entire nations. Transport and logistics, fuelled by fossil energy, make up over half of military energy use. Yet these massive carbon costs remain largely unreported and unchecked.

Communities in conflict endure unimaginable suffering, homes reduced to rubble, infrastructure destroyed, fertile lands poisoned, ecosystems collapsing. At the same time, the machinery of war emits millions of tonnes of carbon, accelerating the climate crisis. And the damage

Kyoto, Paris, yearly COP summits; billions are poured into endless talking shops where targets are set and treaties inked. Yet they all continue to ignore the elephant in the room, the world’s militaries keep pumping out billions of tons of carbon without oversight or even a plan

The climate crisis is already igniting conflict, driving droughts, crop failures, food shortages, and mass displacement. Yet the militaries charged with protecting security are, paradoxically, undermining it. By consuming colossal amounts of fossil fuels, they are accelerating

In just 120 days, Israel’s assault on Gaza emitted as much CO₂ as Sweden does in a year. Conflicts destroy ecosystems, fuel deforestation, and unleash massive emissions, yet military carbon footprints remain hidden. From Vietnam to Syria, war leaves a toxic, warming legacy.

Climate change accelerates global conflict, intensifying competition for resources, fueling mass displacement, and heightening geopolitical instability. Yet warfare itself drives these tensions, pumping millions of tonnes of unchecked carbon into the atmosphere that warms the

Millions cycle to work, drive smaller cars, take buses and trains, insulate their homes, install heat pumps, eat less meat, switch to renewable power, plant trees, and cut air travel...all to shrink their carbon footprint. But one fighter jet wipes out those savings 1,000× over

Every bomb dropped, every missile launched, makes our planet less habitable. Modern warfare doesn’t just ravage human lives, it devastates ecosystems, poisons water supplies, and supercharges the climate crisis. If "security" means protecting people, then defense strategies must

Gaza’s reconstruction alone could emit up to 60 million tonnes of CO₂, more than 135 countries produce in a year. Carbon-heavy materials like cement and steel, debris removal, and toxic remnants drive massive, long-term environmental damage. Yet these emissions go uncounted.

Military jets burn thousands of litres of fuel every hour. Tanks guzzle more than a gallon per mile. Warships can burn a thousand tonnes of fuel in a single day, yet none of this counts in climate agreements. War not only destroys the present, it poisons the future. Military

The M1 Abrams tank averages just 0.6 miles per gallon, but its true environmental cost runs far deeper. Beyond the exhaust fumes, there’s the massive carbon footprint of manufacturing 60 tonnes of steel, transporting the tank to and from battlefields, and sustaining the crew that

A single naval vessel can burn over 1,000 tons of fuel daily, a B-52 bomber consumes roughly 3,300 gallons an hour, while an Abrams tank uses 1,000 gallons for a 200-mile trip alone. If the global military were a country, it would be the fourth-largest carbon polluter, behind

War doesn't just take innocent lives. It destroys the very world we are trying to save. But there is still time to protect what's precious. Together, we can demand accountability at COP30. #WarOnClimate #ClimateCrisis #ClimateJustice #GlobalWarming #ClimateAction #cop30

Herbicides like Agent Orange do more than strip away vegetation; they inflict lasting poisons upon entire ecosystems. This damage echoes for generations, devastating forests, polluting rivers, and causing profound suffering for human communities. #WarOnClimate #ClimateCrisis

Brazil’s prime minister spells out to the UN that bombs and nuclear weapons will not protect us from the climate crisis. And unless military emissions are counted, we are walking blindfolded towards the abyss. #WarOnClimate #ClimateCrisis #ClimateJustice #GlobalWarming

Cluster munitions cause lasting devastation beyond the battlefield, contaminating the land and rendering farms unusable. They destroy ecosystems and leave civilians living with danger long after the conflict ends. #WarOnClimate #ClimateCrisis #ClimateJustice #GlobalWarming

Developing, maintaining, and powering the war industry generates massive amounts of carbon pollution. Far more than any other industry on earth. But we don’t know exactly how much carbon they produce because military emissions are exempt from international treaties on emissions.

No matter how far away the war is, it affects you. Combat pumps millions of tonnes of carbon into the air, worsening the effects of global warming. Shockingly, these vast emissions are given no consideration in climate treaties, even though global military emissions rank fourth
