A US foreign policy reporter, Abby Martin, and her Iraq veteran husband turn their sights on the hidden impact that the US military has on the planet, after the birth of their first child created them anxiety about the climate crisis. Their investigation exposes a secretive and constantly-expanding web of pollution, cover-ups and unaccountability by the world’s biggest polluter.

The film, Earth’s Greatest Enemy, reveals a hidden truth behind global heating: the role of the US Military as the world’s largest institutional polluter, tracing the link between war, empire, and ecological destruction.

As part of Constellations, hear young writers Olivia De Zilva and Lauren Fuge in a candid discussion about creating art in a world that feels increasingly fragile.

In conversation with Laura Pietrobon, Olivia and Lauren will explore questions including: how does the state of the world challenge our ability to write? Why is it essential for young people to tell stories about their realities? And what does it mean to create art while living in a world that often feels like it’s failing?

The conversation will touch on themes from Olivia De Zilva’s Plastic Budgie and Eggshell, works rooted in problematic and defiant nostalgia, and Lauren Fuge’s Voyagers, which explores the drive to explore and reimagine the future of our world.
