The US military is the world’s single largest source of greenhouse emissions and the biggest purchaser of petroleum. Likewise, the southern border wall and militarization has caused massive destruction of sensitive ecosystems. Congress has exempted the military and Border Patrol from US environmental laws, endangered species laws, and United Nations greenhouse gas agreements. Congress! President Obama! Make the Pentagon and Border Patrol obey our laws! UN-No Exemptions for the US military! We choose an inhabitable Earth over militarism and war!
