Title: Could of done more...
Review: The Ecology of War makes the arguement that military activities disproportionately afeect the environment. Quoted is a figure that the US DOD produces 5 times more toxic materails than the top 5 US chemical companies.Though this begins to peak interest, the author fails to analyze military activities into types of environmental impacts, the risks associated with these impacts, nor any form of comparison with non-military activities. Some examples appear to be out-side of the scope of the book.The Ecology of War reads more like a scrap book than a study with a purpose. The author contends that military activities are harmful to the environment, but does not go far beyond stating the obvious, or offer solutions.The one thing that may interest a reader is the authors time-line of scortched earth efforts, which is rather well compiled.
