Research indicates that the carbon footprint resulting from Israel's military operations in Gaza during the first 15 months exceeds the total annual emissions of many countries. The long-term climate impact is estimated to surpass 31 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent, primarily stemming from the Israeli military's activities. This conflict is placing additional strain on global climate efforts, with the region already vulnerable to climate-related disasters. The study calls for accountability regarding military emissions, especially because conflicts can significantly harm resources essential for surviving climate crises.
The carbon emissions from Israel's conflict with Gaza will exceed those of a hundred countries cumulatively, showing the grave environmental toll of warfare.
The military emissions from Israeli operations far outweigh those from Hamas, revealing a significant disparity in the climate impacts of both sides in the conflict.
