Is war one of the biggest threats to the world’s climate? | Inside Story
Speaking at this year's COP30 in Brazil, UN chief Antonio Guterres called the inability to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius a "deadly moral failure".But does the same apply when it comes protecting the environment in conflict?
Israel's two-year genocide on Gaza has created 61 million tons of rubble, with nearly a quarter contaminated with asbestos and other hazardous materials.
And scientists warn Israel's use of water, food, and energy as weapons of war in the strip has left farmland and ecosystems facing irreversible collapse.
In Syria, President Ahmed al-Sharaa has cited his country’s worst drought in more than six decades as evidence of accelerating climate change, and warned it could hinder the country's post-war recovery.
So why isn’t conflict seen as a climate issue and why is the environmental toll of war so often ignored?
