Pollution
The United States military is one of the biggest polluters on earth,[1][2] with more impact than 140 countries combined.[3][4] The US military spends $20.2 billion annually on air conditioning (!) in Iraq and Afghanistan alone, according to estimates by Pentagon officials.[5]
According to an EPA list, almost 900 of the nearly 1,200 Superfund sites across the United States are abandoned military facilities or locations that were used to support military needs. One such base, Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina, was held accountable for the contamination of the area’s groundwater. The military base was deemed responsible for dumping a large amount of carcinogens in the groundwater between 1953 and 1987. But only in February 2018 the federal government allowed affected individuals to file for official compensation claims.[6]

Barack Obama/Presidency | “Obama will not purge a civilian or political appointee because they have bought into Obama's ideology," - "The White House protects their own. That's why they stalled on the investigation into Fast and Furious, Benghazi and ObamaCare. He's intentionally weakening and gutting our military, Pentagon and reducing us as a superpower, and anyone in the ranks who disagrees or speaks out is being purged.” | Paul E. Vallely | 2013 |
Toxoplasma gondii | “You want to know something terrifying? Here's something terrifying and not surprising. The U.S. military knows about Toxo and its effect on behavior. They're interested in Toxo. They're officially intrigued. An I would think they would be intrigued, studying a parasite that makes mammals perhaps do things that everything in their fiber normally tells them not to do because it's dangerous. But suddenly, with this parasite on board, the mammal is a little more likely to go and do it. Who knows? But they're aware of Toxo.” | Professor in neurology and neurosurgery Robert Sapolsky | 2 December 2009 |
