The greenhouse gas emissions of militaries, direct and indirect, are notoriously overlooked. However, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has served to bring the world’s attention to the relationship between military action and emissions.

A newly published report by Perspectives Climate Group (Germany) explores the military emissions ‘reporting gap’, both in peacetime and war. Critically, it offers a much needed robust series of proposals to address this within the UNFCCC process. Read the report here .
