Scarred Lands & Wounded Lives:
The Environmental Footprint of War- Filmmakers Alice

war and preparations for war. In all its stages, from
the production of weapons through combat to cleanup and
restoration, war pollutes land, air, and water, destroys
biodiversity, and drains natural resources. Yet the environmental
damage of war and preparation for war is routinely underestimated,
underreported, even ignored. The environment remains war's
"silent casualty."
