Laurie Mercier speaks with antiwar and climate activist Janet Weil, who discusses the Veterans for Peace Climate Crisis and Militarism Project. They also discuss why environmental movements have avoided including militarism as an urgent concern for stemming climate catastrophe, and how the US-supported Russia-Ukraine war and genocide in Gaza have generated massive emissions, toxic feedback loops, and permanent environmental destruction. What can we do to stop war to lessen climate catastrophe? You can read about the toxic dust drifting from Gaza into Israel in the Kucinich Report, and about the insanity of war during a climate crisis by Janet Weil.
