The environmental impact of war is one of the last things we usually talk about when we discuss the consequences of military conflict. In this powerful video created by TBB 2008-09 students Alexis Kidd, John Kline, Renee Slajda, and Becca Title explore the impacts of the use of Agent Orange during the Vietnam War on the population today. Their experiences during last year's program meeting victims young and old are powerful in this unique video.
