Muddling up these two issues is so very stupid ... just keep the climate message on climate, how fucking hard is that?

What funny is both issue are extremely linked.

Earlier this year, Isreal sign an agreement with Lebanon to help explore the area for gas and oil.

Isreal anounced a new middle East to supply eroupe with gas.

Iareal on October 19 or around ot awarded 12 companies the ability to explore gas and oil in the region.

The only thing that was stopping them is Hamas.

The expected value goes over 400 billion in the last few years, as expressed in a report by the UN about the gas field there.

Besides that i'd really like to know how much these sneseless wars contribute towards further polution. All the jets burning, ground vehicles moving, possibility of nukes

Depends on how many lives are cut short and never become. If one woman were to have had 6 kids who then made another 12 grandchildren, their footprint would be much higher than if a woman never was going to have kids.

Overall it is a dark topic. But ~7 lives to a fighter jet tank of gas if I saw correctly. (28 metric tons per tank) average footprint worldwide is about 4 per person.

The moral of the story I suppose is to send everyone to war on foot, nude, and only hand to hand combat is permitted. Don't want to figure out the footprint of a sword or hammer. Easier just to say pick up a rock.

Now that that's sorted, let's have some tea.
