Impact of war on the environment: ecocide

Frontiers in Environmental Science, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13

Published: Feb. 6, 2025

This paper reviews the militaristic consequences on Mother Earth and in particular ecocide or mass degradation of biological forms regards to war. Wars are recorded from ancient Egyptian dynasty modern era, all left concerning effects mother nature such as deforestation, loss biodiversity, soil erosion, water, air pollution. Some conflicts that especially noted Vietnam War, Gulf contemporary wars Ukraine which considered examples today’s context. To provide a clearer understanding our methodology, we employed comprehensive literature review approach. involved systematically analyzing existing studies document environmental impacts warfare across various historical conflicts. We categorized findings based specific consequences, biodiversity loss, Additionally, incorporated case significant illustrate patterns ecocide. The looks at how hazard is performed through direct destructive activities like bombings migration populations their needs socio-economic pursuits. Legal instruments those international level law developing crime also examined for problem ecological injustice. Finally, rehabilitation reconstruction measures including community-based efforts reforestation restoration ecosystems. finally ends by advocating threats calling cooperation treaties no post-war countries.

Microbial Community Composition of Explosive-Contaminated Soils: A Metataxonomic Analysis

Microorganisms, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13(2), P. 453 - 453

Published: Feb. 19, 2025

Munition disposal practices have significant effects on microbial composition and overall soil health. Explosive contamination can disrupt communities, leading to abundance richness changes. This study investigates the diversity of soils roots from sites with a history ammunition disposal, aiming identify organisms that may play role in bioremediation. Soil root samples were collected two types (through open burning detonation) unpolluted Machachi, Ecuador, over years (2022 2023). High-throughput sequencing 16S rRNA gene (for bacteria) ITS region fungi plants) was conducted obtain taxonomic profiles. There variations bacteria, fungi, plant communities between polluted sites. Bacterial genera such as Pseudarthrobacter, Pseudomonas, Rhizobium more abundant roots, while Candidatus Udaeobacter dominated soils. Fungal classes Dothideomycetes Sordariomycetes prevalent across most samples, Leotiomycetes Agaricomycetes also highly samples. Plant-associated reads showed higher Poa Trifolium particularly at contaminated sites, Alchemilla, Vaccinium, Hypericum Alpha analysis indicated bacterial significantly whereas fungal not different among Redundancy beta site, year, sample type influenced community structure, site being influential factor. Differentially taxa, including bacteria Pseudarthrobacter Paraleptosphaeria Talaromyces, contribute natural attenuation processes explosive-contaminated research highlights potential certain taxa restore environments by explosives.
