The environmental movement and the peace movement share a target: militarism. The U.S. military has over 800 toxic bases around the world that act as launching pads for war, emitting billions of tons of carbon dioxide, making the U.S. military the largest institutional polluter in the world. War is driven by resource extraction; without it, resource extraction would not be possible. There’s no way around it: in order to save the planet, we need to end war, imperialism, and U.S. militarism. We must break down the barriers between movements to meaningfully address the existential threat that war poses to the earth.
We seek to join forces with the environmental movement that raises $16 billion annually to tackle climate change by exposing the elephant in the room: war and militarism. The anti-war community receives 0.011% of all philanthropy; if we are going to save the planet and end war we need to join forces. Help us shine a light on the Elephant in the Room for those who are funded to address climate chaos.
We are here to help them learn about something that has been intentionally hidden and swept under the rug. If either of us is going to stop the climate crisis and militarism, we need to work together. We have picked 12 of the largest organizations to teach about the elephant in the room; they receive a combined $3.79 billion in annual revenue.
