The U.S. military is the single largest consumer of oil in the world and the world’s larger polluter, generating 750,000 tons of toxic waste annually.
It maintains over 700 bases worldwide, contaminating local communities and causing increased rates of cancer, kidney disease, birth defects and miscarriages.
On Earth Day, we call on our representatives to stop funding the devastating War for Oil in Iraq and instead put our taxdollars into developing clean, green sources of energy that will help us build a healthy, peaceful planet.

In 2001, a barrel of oil cost $20. Now it is $120 per barrel. The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have certainly not brought us cheap oil. The extraction of oil from the tar sands, which is devastating to the environment locally and uses 1 barrel of oil to get 2-3 barrels (in Iraq it is 1 to 100), is only profitable when oil prices are high. You see the connection? Another reason why war is not green!
