RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk is the biggest US/NATO airbase in Europe. Its conventional fighter jets use tonnes of fossil fuels and are capable of carrying nuclear weapons with over twenty times the power of the Hiroshima bomb.
Lakenheath is now getting ready to receive US nuclear weapons, putting the UK in the nuclear front-line with Trump in charge!
What has conflict got to do with the climate and ecological emergency
Even before weapons are used our environment is being poisoned, harmed and put at risk by the nuclear fuel cycle, weapons production, operations and transport.
Peace and stability is essential for effective and timely climate action and adaptation by countries around the world.
It's all connected.
Militarism and climate change are catastrophically linked. Militarism causes massive pollution, biodiversity loss, and the displacement of people.
To stop the twin existential threats of climate and environmental breakdown and nuclear war, please support the Lakenheath International Peace Camp.
