150 nations pollute less than the U.S. military.
The U.S. Department of Defense is destroying the planet. Cut military emissions now!

Vladimir,
In 2020, one single entity alone was responsible for creating more than 52 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions — more than the entire country of Sweden. What entity was this? The U.S. military. It turns out that weapons of war are not just devastating for local families and ecosystems in war-torn regions; they are also massively contributing to the destruction of our entire planet. In fact, the U.S. military is more responsible for impacting climate change than 150 entire countries!
The military actually fully understands this. Its staff have authored numerous reports emphasizing the risk climate change poses to both national and global security. Yet year after year, while the military budget balloons, hardly a dent is made in emissions reductions within each of its branches. And government agencies that could help save the environment? They often receive pennies on the dollars needed. We are running out of time to save the planet and to also avert a huge international security crisis. Sign the petition to demand that the Department of Defense cut greenhouse gas emissions and stop climate catastrophe!
Thank you,
Miranda

P.S. If the U.S. military is truly committed to protecting Americans and the world, it must invest in green energy to ensure a habitable future planet.
