Climate Crisis and US Militarism - What's the Connection? Climate Crisis and US Militarism: We're now all too familiar with the impacts of our changing climate: extreme weather events, wildfires and floods, crop failures, and climate anxiety. But we may not be so familiar with the contribution of the U.S. military - which each year consumes more than 60% of our federal discretionary budget - to the accelerating climate crisis. Veterans For Peace offers a 20-minute slideshow presentation on this Elephant in the Room, unmentioned by most climate action groups, and more importantly, what we can do about it. This presentation is available on zoom (Register for the link HERE) for free, and contains information unknown to even most climate-aware concerned citizens. Our "Climate Crisis and Militarism" slideshow is being presented to veterans', peace, and climate groups around the country, and it always generates a lively discussion afterward. A common reaction: "I have been active in climate issues for a long time, and I NEVER thought of this!"https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAlfuuqqz8uEtQSQ4yxJMVk9nJYg51DSb66
