The ongoing war in Ukraine, now in its fourth year, has resulted in significant military and civilian casualties, with estimates of 1.8 million soldiers affected and nearly 15,000 civilian deaths. The conflict has led to a massive displacement of Ukrainians and severe environmental damage, impacting biodiversity and increasing greenhouse gas emissions by 311 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent. The war's emissions are largely driven by fossil fuel consumption from military operations, contributing to global pollution. Ukraine is seeking climate reparations from Russia for the environmental damage caused by the war. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
