DESCRIPTION:Scarred Lands and Wounded Lives: The Environmental Footprint of War 
 \n\nThis film is prompted by a recognition of our deep dependence on the 
 natural world and the significant threat to that world posed by war and 
 preparations for war. \n\nThe scale of environmental damage over the last 
 half century is unprecedented.   Falling water tables, shrinking forest 
 cover, declining species diversity -- all bespeak ecosystems in distress.   
 These trends are now widely acknowledged as emanating from forces of 
 humanity's own making: massive population increases, unsustainable demands 
 on natural resources, species loss, ruinous environmental practices.   
 Ironically, however, war -- that most destructive of human behaviors -- is 
 commonly overlooked. \n\nIn all its stages, from the production of weapons 
 through combat to cleanup and restoration, war entails actions that pollute 
 land, air, and water, destroy biodiversity, and drain natural resources.  
 Activities that do such damage cry out for far-reaching public scrutiny. 
 The sustainability of our entire ecosphere is at stake. We can no longer 
 maintain silence about the environmental impact of war on the grounds that 
 such scrutiny is "inconvenient" or "callous" at a time when all human life 
 is so endangered.\n\n$5 - $10 suggested donation ~ No one turned away ~
