Infrastructure Targeting and Postwar Iraq | The Washington
In Operation Desert Storm, a ground offensive was supported with extensive air strikes on every significant element of Iraq''s dual-use power, communications, transportation, and industrial sectors. In a war that had the potential to become protracted, it made sense to destroy Iraq''s ability to refine oil and produce ammunition, as well as its
Iraq: CO2 Country Profile
When countries set targets, measure or compare CO 2 emissions, they tend to focus on production-based emissions – CO 2 emitted within a country''s own borders. However, this fails to capture emissions from traded goods – the CO 2 emitted in the production of goods elsewhere, which are later imported (or the opposite: emissions from goods that are
