The Issue Ignored by the Media: How the Military Affects our Climate & Democracy<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

In this episode of Know Your Stuff, we interview Nick Buxton, an activist and researcher at the Transnational Institute (TNI) about the role of the military in the climate crisis. We talk about how the military sector impacts the environment, but also how the military sector itself prepares for a changed climate. We also discuss why climate movements do not focus on the role of the military in their activism and whether climate change can be addressed effectively without taking into account militarisation and wars. Finally we explore the connection between the military sector and our economic and political system and how it affects democracy.<\/span><\/p>\n
