Question

What is the point of going green when the U. S. government authorizes the use of depleted uranium munitions?

Answer 1

Cannot figure out if you are serious or just another misinformed DU paranoid.

If you are looking for an excuse not to alter our life style to improve the environment, there are a million possible reasons.  You do not need to go as far as weapons design.  For example, "my neighbor drives an SUV.  Why should I try to save on fuel by driving a small car?"  The decision to act responsible with respect to the environment starts personal and grows through the society.

Regarding DU munitions, they have little effect on the local area of use let alone the global environment

Answer 2

I think that the Government has already shown that it is going to do exactly what it wants to no matter what the voters want.

All we can do is what we are able to do, and not just give up.

Answer 3

You will be going 'green' whichever way you look at it- like Homer Simpson :)  Yes why do they advocate this. I understand depleted Uranium is used in warheads, to plasmarise its way into heavy armour?
