Toxic Battlefields: the Untold Impact of War

Military operations leave deep, lasting scars on our planet’s ecosystems. From radioactive landscapes and toxic battlefields to millions of tons of dumped ocean munitions, the environmental footprint of modern warfare affects us all, contributing up to ten percent of global carbon emissions.

In this documentary, we explore the devastating connection between warfare and ecological destruction across history:

World War I Battlefields: The historical origins of modern ecocide and landscape destruction.
Cold War Nuclear Secrets: Uncovering forgotten radioactive complexes in the Arctic regions.
Vietnam’s Agent Orange: Investigating the decades-long impact of toxic dioxin contamination.
Submerged Hazards: Exploring sunken shipwrecks and chemical munitions on the Baltic seafloor and Canadian coastline.
Target Ranges in Paradise: How decades of military testing reshaped pristine Caribbean island habitats.

What does it take to fuel global military machinery, and what resources are consumed when conflict occurs? Explore the hidden environmental cost of war and the true state of our global eco-balance.
