Climate Justice Coalition says war is a climate crisis

# The Climate Justice Coalition says war is not only a human rights crisis, but it is a climate crisis. Research by the Climate and Community Project shows that carbon emissions from just the first 60 days of Israel’s 2023 war on Gaza exceeded the annual emissions of over 30 countries, mostly among the world’s most climate-vulnerable. Solar had generated as much as a quarter of Gaza’s electricity, representing one of the world’s highest shares. The CJC says there is no climate justice without confronting colonialism, imperialism, and genocide.
