This report shows that military spending and arms sales have a deep and lasting impact on the capacity to address the climate crisis, let alone in a way that promotes justice. Every dollar spent on the military not only increases greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, but also diverts financial resources, skills and attention away from tackling one of the greatest existential threats humanity has ever experienced.

A discussion on the environmental impacts of different kinds of animal agriculture, and what this means for our thinking about livestock, livelihoods and climate justice.
