The environmental constraints on all activities in society are continuously increased. Conventional munitions have an impact on the environment during all stages of their life cycle: production; use and demilitarisation. FOI has continuous research to reduce the environmental impact of these stages. Research and development are directed towards technologies and products that will reduce the direct and indirect environmental impact from the activities from and around the armed forces. This presentation will cover an overview of some activities to enhance the Armed forces’ possibilities to reduce their environmental impact.
