The impact of war is so much more than just the emissions from tanks, ships and warplanes - modern warfare has a devastating effect on people and the planet.

So, what is the scale of planetary destruction wrought by militaries? And in a world where nations justify war on the basis of supposed ‘security’ benefits - isn’t the harm to the earth not also a huge threat to our collective security?

Join Ali Rae in this sixth episode of #AllHailThePlanet - a 10 part series delving into the social, economic and political forces undermining meaningful global action on climate change.

In this episode, Ali speaks with Author & Researcher at the Transnational Institute (TNI), Nick Buxton; Author & Associate Professor of International Relations at Georgetown University, Marwa Daoudy; and Political Scientist & Co-director of Brown University’s ‘Costs of War’ project, Neta Crawford.
