War and the environment<\/strong><\/h3>\n\nAs wars rage on in Ukraine, Gaza, Iran, Lebanon, Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo, it is clear that conflict is not only an immediate human tragedy, marked by bombardments, forced displacement, famine, sexual violence and constant terror, but also an environmental one, with impacts on public health, ecosystems and the climate that extend far beyond the frontlines and can leave entire regions uninhabitable for decades after the weapons fall silent.<\/p>\n\n
Readers engaged deeply with how the US-Israel war on Iran and how war and conflict are destroying the environment <\/a>and how oil tankers stuck in the Strait of Hormuz south of Iran threatens the Gulf ecosystem <\/a>with the potential to leave ecological destruction that could last generations. These pieces highlight how war accelerates climate vulnerability while disrupting communities already facing environmental injustice.<\/p>\n\nWhy nuclear power is not the way<\/strong><\/h3>\n\nNuclear power is often hailed as a magic bullet solution for the rapid and large-scale decarbonisation of our societies which we all know needs to happen if we have any hope of mitigating the worst effects of the unfolding climate emergency.
