Is it possible for an army to do the right thing? After all, armies destroy buildings and neighbourhoods, they kill and severely injure people, including children. Many wars and conflicts go on for years. But, weirdly, war do have rules, even if not everyone follows them. Do these rules really make it possible to create an ethical army? Can technology — like robots, drones and stun guns — lead to fewer casualties? After donning their battle fatigues, Molly and Carl design some ethical armies of their own.
Producer: Kyla Slaven
Executive Producer: Ian Walker
Brains trust: Finn, Ilka, Phoenix, Megan, and Eleanor from Millthorpe Public School, NSW
