#WarsForOil: In its first 12 months, the Ukraine war has been estimated to emit 120 million tCO2e. That amounts to the annual output of Singapore, Switzerland and Syria combined. all the #militaries in the world combined are estimated to be responsible for 5.5% of global #greenhousegas #emissions, ranked fourth after India and ahead of Russia.

The tendency of #militaries in #peacetime to lose focus on their core purpose [1] and hare off in different directions of irrelevancy is widely known and documented, at least as far back as the Vietnam #war, and probably earlier. In peacetime, there just aren't the same metrics and opportunities available for officers and general staff to focus on.

#International_Tech_News | ON THE #CHEAT!? TS CALLED A #PROXY_WAR! A Modern Warfare Problem!!
#Nations may be motivated to engage in #proxy_warfare due to #financial concerns: #supporting #irregular_troops, #insurgents, #non_state_actors, or less-#advanced allied #militaries (often with #obsolete or #surplus equipment) can be significantly #cheaper than #deploying national #armed_forces, and the #proxies usually bear the #brunt..
