摘要

When Jeffrey Marqusee looks at the US Department of Defense (DOD), what he sees is not history's most fearsome war machine, but a gigantic test-bed for advanced environmental technologies. Marqusee runs the Pentagon's environmental-technology programmes, and he likes to tell anyone who will listen that the DOD's infrastructure includes 500 fixed installations (some the size and complexity of small cities), 546,000 buildings and other structures and 160,000 non-tactical vehicles.
