Our report sheds light on the environmental consequences of war, including substantial pollution, infrastructure damage, and potential threats to agriculture.

M85 - An analysis of reliability
The primary purpose of this study from 2007 by C King Associates Ltd (CKA), Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) and NPA was to examine the performance of the M85 bomblet in combat conditions, because this specific bomblet had become the symbol of a proposed approach to solve the problems that cluster munitions cause. The study concluded that the failure rate in combat was higher than expected, likely around 10%.
