Green Carpet Film Festival: Earth's greatest enemy
Thu, 5 Nov 2026 · 20:00
Sphinx Cinema, Miry, Paddenhoek and KASKcinema, Ghent
And here we are planting front-yard gardens
We drink from paper straws, take 3-minute showers, and try to avoid flying too much. And meanwhile, the world runs riot. Billionaires take private jets, multinationals overproduce en masse. And the biggest shots of the world? They bomb part of the world to smithereens.
*Earth’s Greatest Enemy* reveals a hidden truth behind the climate crisis: the role of the US military as the world's largest institutional polluter, linking war, imperialism, and ecological destruction. Through compelling testimonies from veterans, scientists, and frontline communities, it exposes how military operations poison ecosystems, accelerate global warming, and sacrifice the future for endless expansion. From melting glaciers in Alaska to polluted military bases in the US and toxic battlefields abroad, *Earth’s Greatest Enemy* offers a provocative and uncompromising analysis of an unassailable institution that plays a disproportionate role in the climate crisis.
