In this Our Changing Climate climate change video essay, I examine why the Iran War might just be the beginning of Trump's warmongering. Specifically, I look at how American imperialism (and even more specifically, oil imperialism) and fossil fascism are driving the United States war machine into dangerous territory. But of course, Iran and its control of the Strait of Hormuz mean that a war with Iran has global ramifications--for oil, for helium, for fertilizer, and so much more.
