Focus Area Overview
The climate crisis and militarism are inseparable. The US military is one of the world’s largest polluters, and wars over resources accelerate environmental destruction while diverting funds from climate solutions. WILPF connects ecological justice to peace work, understanding that environmental destruction is violence against communities, future generations, and the planet itself.
