"By looking at war from this unusual angle, the filmmakers strive to give us extra ammunition, so to speak, when we write to our Congressmen to protest whatever military action the U.S. is undertaking at the time." -Sierra Club

Scarred Lands and Wounded Lives: the Environmental Footprint of War Partnering with Veterans for Peace is a compelling documentary exploring the under-reported environmental impacts of war and preparations for war. The film confronts the immensely broad ecological and human ramifications of everything from technological development and natural resource exhaustion to weapons testing and modern warfare itself.
