In September, we spread the word on the other side of the globe by joining with Australia and Canada to host the first Asia- Pacific Defense Environmental Conference, which drew delegates from 32 nations.

There is a great benefit when militaries of the world do their part to protect and preserve their environments. There is a greater benefit when they do this by working together. That makes the world a more peaceful place.
