Keith Locke will be pleased! Clean, green war machinesSeptember 18, 2006. LONDON: British arms manufacturer BAE Systems is designing "environmentally friendly" weapons, including reduced-lead bullets, reduced-smoke grenades, low-toxin rockets, tanks with lower carbon emissions and even recycling or composting waste explosives. "Weapons are going to be used and when they are, we try to make them as safe for the user as possible, to limit the collateral damage and to impact as little as possible on the environment," a BAE official said.

How about biodegradable land mines? Would sure save a lot of hassle in former war zones.

Why stuff around? Why not stop making them in the first place?
