Green ICBMs
by Volker Weber
In order to comply with EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) regulations, and at a cost of about $5.2 million per ICBM, the rocket motors on 500 Minuteman III missiles will be replaced with new ones. These rockets will emit less toxic chemicals when used.
It is yet unconfirmed that the nuclear warheads will also be removed to comply with EPA regulations.
