“The other piece of this is that we call for cutting our bloated and dangerous military budget. And this is something that is made possible by moving to 100% clean renewable energy, where we cannot justify wars for oil, and where we cannot justify having some 700, 800 bases gathered around the world in something like 100 countries in significant measure protecting either access to fossil fuels or protecting routes of transportation.” WorldMadeWarCountryMovingEnergyPiecesCuttingMilitaryDangerousBasesCleanOilAccessSignificantAround The WorldBudgetsFuelJustifyRoutesFossilsTransportationFossil FuelRenewable EnergyMilitary Budget Author:Jill Stein
