Though beyond the scope of this paper the environmental impact of peacekeeping missions must be mentioned as they too can have serious
negative consequences to those areas in which they operate. In order to alleviate the negative consequences of energy, water and wastewater,
solid waste, and environmental management, each peacekeeping mission has developed an environmental actions plan that attempts to
mitigate the damage in the mission area. Peacekeepers may well be competitors for natural resources, particularly water. The UN has
technical support for hazardous waste and other waste management issues through the Global Service Center (GSC) in Brindisi and REACT
partnerships. And, missions are looking at small projects, such as tree plantings, that can improve the environment and leave a positive
reminder of a mission.

Deep Throat was an informant that helped reveal the Watergate scandal. In the documentary, All the President’s Men, he told the reporters
to “follow the money.” This has become a catch phrase for uncovering corruption.
