Disarming Earth Day: War Is Not Green! Liberating Earth From Empire

Join us for the last teach-in of our series leading up to Earth Day 2025. This month, we plan to highlight the impact of U.S. war, militarism, and imperialism on people and the planet. This 4th teach-in will cover the central issues that we have been discussing and building toward: that War Is Not Green. We will cover the cost of war to the planet, the conjoined fates of the climate and anti-war movements, and what it means to build an anti-militarist climate movement that calls for an end to US warfare and imperialism, stands for repatriation of indigenous land, and builds a new world.

In order to combat the climate crisis, we need to confront US militarism and imperialism. The U.S. military is the #1 institutional polluter in the world, with over 800 poisonous bases around the world, consistently building up pointless escalation and presence in every hemisphere. In moments of crisis at every level, we need to center our movements toward common targets and our collective futures.
