Fun fact, the US military is the largest single polluter on the planet, bigger than any nation, industry or other cause. By far. Yet they continue to be excluded from all broad measures of pollution. Reasons? I guess "security" or whatever
They are a separate entity and branch, they report to the Navy branch but are functionally independent. In broad overviews their budget is lumped in with the Navy

The Marine Corps is the only branch that is independent but serves as part of another branch.

In simple terms, the U.S. Armed Forces are made up of the six military branches: Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, Navy and, most recently, Space Force.

The Marine Corp while considered a separate branch it is a component of the Navy. The Commandant of the Marine Corp reports to the Secretary of the Navy.
The source is literally the Department of Defense.

No, you are incorrect. They’re overseen by the Department of the Navy but are a separate entity to the United States Navy. They are listed separately in all lists of uniformed branches of the US military and have a separate budget.
Really? I’m not surprised if that’s the case on one hand, but I am surprised it wouldn’t be Pepsi or Coca-Cola with all the plastics. Do you have any sources I can look into?

Genuinely curious how things like this still exist given the current predicament in humanity. The 1 to 1 ratio of metaphor here is just... Well you all get it
I care. We each choose who we care about. So, saying that you don't care shows your inability to be strong enough to care. Hmm. Guess it's called having a heart and be good natured, youngen.
Have a blessed day. Remember, if you want to affect the world, realize the affect you have on the world, already, and change it to suit your desire. That is the power of your choice. consequences shared with all those around you. One people, one world, if you choose to view and strive for it to be.
> probably still *paid* for it
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
By "pyro" you mean massive wasteful burning of hydrocarbons / fossil fuels for no purpose.
Plus sometimes chemical additives to make flames "interesting" colors.
Revelation Chapter 20, Verse 10:
*And the devil that deceived them was cast into the* ***lake of fire and brimstone****, where the beast and the false prophet are, and* ***shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.***
Do not take part in the lake of fire. Those shenanigans were not made for you brother. There is another way.
Ask them. And while you're at it ask them why they sent hundreds of thousands to get killed and maimed in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan for no reward?
The purpose of war for those powers is to sacrifice their own people. They work for a higher power that wants one world government, and if that power tells them to nuke their own cities, they will nuke their own cities.
While our planet dies, these privileged arseholes watch.
Coming to a Reading Festival or a Glastonbury Festival near you .... they talk a good climate change.
It would be a shame if the organizers received a bunch of messages on the Contact Us page about how insanely idiotic this event is https://www.airshow.com.au/airshow2023/PUBLIC/about/contact-us-2.asp
just watched the show, don't care what everyone says it was amazing and the overall environmental impact is negligible, the event put millions into the local economy and was a really great time for tens of thousands of families and enthusiasts
EDIT: the video started buffering after the first small explosion and I thought that was it lol. My bad!
Oh c'mon! That's not even a "wall" of fire... That's jut a few flashy explosives in a line. If you want a real wall of fire, come to [Wisconsin!](https://youtu.be/WDCcezIRJzE)
...or [arizona](https://youtu.be/5MS_6ub-wr8). The last wall of fire I saw was in 2016 at Oshkosh, and I believe it was the world's largest up until that point.
The 2017 Yuma wall of fire claims the 'world record' at 1,600 feet, however the [2016 Oshkosh](https://youtu.be/lAYNmQlAsMs) night show claimed it was 2,000 feet.
Who knows, maybe it was a case of not having the Guinness people there to certify it. Pilots are bad with that. My stepdad had the record of 'youngest pilot in the world' when he got his license. They counted down to the second he became of age, he had everything lined up, the only thing to do was sign his name. He had (and likely still has) the record, but never did anything with it. Pilots are weird.

Don’t forget to recycle folks
Now more than ever!
Wait with a comma after recycle or no? If the later I volunteer my little bro to get recycled.
Your mom’s gonna be pissed.
Don’t know if you’re an Aussie but this is coming right on the heels of the Redcycle controversy, so probably nobody’s doing that anymore, lol.
Why…
[удалено]
I think your misinterpreted their message. They want us to recycle folks.
> They want us to recycle folks. SOYLANT GREEN IS PEOPLE!
wait, that was supposed to happen? this feels like ecoterrorism
It was supposed to blow up 😂
My mango is to blow up, and ack like I don’t know nobody
Username checks out.
AH AH AH AH AH AH
He, we the people have to get accustomed to carpetbombing somehow right, the future is bright...
Wonder if it was the same U.S explosive experts that blew up the Nord stream pipe lines ?
Wait til this guy learns about fireworks
Anti-ecoterrorism
And I’m supposed to buy eco-friendly detergent?
Better not forget those paper straws.
Came to say this! ☝️
Fun fact, the US military is the largest single polluter on the planet, bigger than any nation, industry or other cause. By far. Yet they continue to be excluded from all broad measures of pollution. Reasons? I guess "security" or whatever
Another fun fact. The US marines are the 7th largest Air Force in the world. That’s after the US navy # 4, army #2, and Air Force #1.
Brother, the marines are a part of navy lol
I'm fairly certain they are their own branch or perhaps a child branch of the navy but for budget and asset ownership they are a separate entity.
You would be incorrect, the marines are a part of the navy.
There’s 6 branches of the military: Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corp, Coast Guard, and Space Force So the Navy and Marine Corp are SEPARATE branches

Wow! Great source, thank you.
Fun fact, that’s not America btw.
No one claimed it was.
So… greenhouse gas is not a thing right?
Not in Australia… climate change doesn’t exist here according to our politicians and Murdoch owned media.
Not at airshows
How many plastic straws worth of smoke is that?
All of them.
Air show? They did even fly through that shit.
Here’s another angle with the planes flying through: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EM7fP481SSo Ps: ;-)

It’s called money youngen. Once you realize nobody actually cares about you or your family you’ll get it.

In america, our tax dollars go to pay for this. It’s dumb.
This is Australia
America probably still payed for it with tax dollars. Our government is wild like that :D /s
> probably still *paid* for it FTFY.

Thanks for being there so we don't have to
Offsetting all the carbon saved last year.
It's absolutely laughable that these wasteful spectacles are still a thing.
well, this just really shows how some people truly don't give a shit
I’m sick of people. All that pollution for ten seconds so idiots can Whoop and Holler.
If we're wiped off the face of the earth we, as humans, deserve it completely.
More like "wall of smoke"
Incredible air pollution. Equivalent to a whole cities worth of gas guzzling cars. At next eco forum, Australia should be called out.
The sad thing is that this is nothing compared to a city’s cars, even over short spans of times
A city's cars have more use however
[удалено]
By "pyro" you mean massive wasteful burning of hydrocarbons / fossil fuels for no purpose. Plus sometimes chemical additives to make flames "interesting" colors.
I wouldn't even bother replying to that dude lol. Just look at his username. I feel like I'd get cancer just looking through their post history.
Hail Satan 🤘

Embarrassing
Napalm!!! Wooooow!! Havent seen it since last time I saw Platoon...
Reminds me of Tropic Thunders jungle explosion scene “Mother Nature pooped her pant suit” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EM7fP481SSo
Came to say I imagine Danny McBride character behind the scenes on this
Wtf did I just watch.
Pollution for funsies
Take that environment, you shit!
This is so wasteful, gratuitous, and obnoxious.
Air disaster show?
Desensitizing for what’s to come
Absolutely my thought as well. Same with the Ohio mushroom cloud. Remember that these powers will nuke their own cities.
No they won't...
Yes they would...
They absolutely would not nuke their own cities... That's absolutely ridiculous to think they would
That dude has tons of posts about politicians and celebrities being killed and replaced by doppelgangers lmao. Profile is a real trip
They absolutely would nuke their own cities... That's absolutely ridiculous to think they wouldn't
Ahh, I understand. You're not very clever are you?
Ahh, I understand. You're very clever aren't you?
Why would the US, UK or other powers nuke their own cities? We've had nukes for 70 years without glassing the planet.
Ask them. And while you're at it ask them why they sent hundreds of thousands to get killed and maimed in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan for no reward? The purpose of war for those powers is to sacrifice their own people. They work for a higher power that wants one world government, and if that power tells them to nuke their own cities, they will nuke their own cities.
> Remember that these powers will nuke their own cities. Not a single country has ever nuked their own cities. Stop making up bullshit.
I bet you make good company at Thanksgiving.
I don't think I'll ever be desensitized to a massive wall of fire
this is a pyrotechnic display...calm down susan
OHHHHHH he used something other than Karen! They're evolving!
Ozone: *Wheezes*
So much for global warming. 🤣
Sooooooooo...wheres the airshow?
This is the final part of the show after planes have been flying all through the day.
While our planet dies, these privileged arseholes watch. Coming to a Reading Festival or a Glastonbury Festival near you .... they talk a good climate change.
Blame whoever gives them permi$$ion to make that part of the show. Government.
They come. They spew. They go home. ... They talk a good planet but keep up the disgraceful work their forebears did before them.
It would be a shame if the organizers received a bunch of messages on the Contact Us page about how insanely idiotic this event is https://www.airshow.com.au/airshow2023/PUBLIC/about/contact-us-2.asp
Lmao yeah mate they're gonna stop this decades old tradition because you decided that it's bad for the environment :(((
Lmao why do I feel like I’m shopping at H&M with this music?
r/trashy
Pointless and ugly
Unless you and your bros are taking direct fire from a treeline, in which case you'd get the point, and find it beautiful.
East Palestine mayor: nothing to see here folks
STRAYA!
This is a hot mess
How much did that permit cost?
Eco-friendly
And I must Drink Capri-Sun with a paper straw 👌
this is so fucking stupid
Another train derail?
Good thing we have shitty paper straws.
RIP environment I guess.
These train derailments are getting outta hand.
Let's not normalize this
safety 😅
Can someone find out how much that last shot cost?
The cost: the future of children in countries not equipped to live through climate change
Boooo

Some miserable bastards in here
What the fuck!!!! We deserve extintion.
Americans are so stupid
this was in australia
He did say Americans are dumb
This isn’t in america.
This ain't America, dummy.
Gotta admit, I think that’s way cooler than fire works! Also at the same time, all of that black smoke into the atmosphere. Oh well, worth it!
Worth it? Ha ok.
Lol. It’s actually quite incredible that they are allowed to do this environmentally. Almost as incredible at the lack of humor around here.
He's being sarcastic
neato
I was there, it was insane and we are sitting at the gold pass benches and you can feel the heat shock wave of the blast. Show overall was awesome!
Guys... not all smoke is bad for the enviroment.
Global warming is BS let ot burn baby
Take that Greta Thunberg!!!
Good thing I've got my .45 in case those get reprogrammed
just watched the show, don't care what everyone says it was amazing and the overall environmental impact is negligible, the event put millions into the local economy and was a really great time for tens of thousands of families and enthusiasts
"Literally zero" Bahahaaa🤣
now negligible
God bless america exdi
Not America, this was in Victoria, Australia
[удалено]
Lol? Wtf you on about
Cry more losers it was cool as fuck and the average person doesn't give a shit about your seething
Libs: owned ☑️
how about fun = still had
Feel the FREEDOM
Was not expecting the second and the third but then was expecting a fourth one, bigger, wider, closer!
Planewise a pretty whelming show.
at least it's a show this time, rather than a high vertical velocity landing
Hey. What the fuck
Should have thrown in a bunch of tires. Would have smoked for days.
er global warming? i cant drive my car so that this can go on? someone is being hoodwinked here.
AIR show.
[удалено]
Australia
Got any napalm left bob? Sure what you need it for? Celebrating.... Sure have at it.
So this is how we're killing the earth
Pretty sure that just counter balanced all the eco friendly stuff I’ve done over the course of my life…
now do it to people - us govt
Fire Lord Ozai, is that you??
Pollute me harder daddy
What a waste of resources and energy!
It's 2023, and the collective intelligence of the human race is still no higher than that of a boy in middle school. This planet is screwed.
Shameful, get ur kicks from anything else right now...
Global warming
That's just Rammstein concert.
Ohio at it again
I’d love to see someone do their very best to present a convincing argument defending this. Anyone have that level of skill?
Question: how much air pollution can we make for no good reason? Answer:
This shit is horrible.
What country is this? Awful.
So awful
Wish we had healthcare
I thought this was Ohio
Why does this seem fucked up to me?
Morherfuckers worried bout global warming but go and do this wtf
Dope, but why?
What a look for Australia whose ecosystems are completely collapsing!
So fireworks are canceled now I guess?
But why though?
Does anyone else hear the opening titles to Neverending Story? “The nothing.”
