GDAMS and Earth Day – April 22
Why Is It Important To Talk About Military Spending On Earth Day?
Join us this Earth Day in our GDAMS campaign: Demilitarize for Climate Justice!
Militarism is deeply connected to the climate crisis. By prioritizing domination and fossil fuel extraction, it fuels conflict and drives environmental harm. Military operations require vast amounts of energy, and armed forces are among the world’s largest institutional consumers of fossil fuels and emitters of greenhouse gases.
As military spending continues to rise, it not only fuels wars and increases emissions but also diverts vital resources away from urgently needed climate solutions.
This Earth Day, join us as part of the Global Days of Action on Military Spending to call for change. This day, coordinated by the Arms, Militarism and Climate Justice Working Group, reflects growing awareness that peace and climate justice are closely interconnected.
