The greatest danger to human civilization and the planet is the inability to believe that tomorrow can be different — the idea that we are individually powerless in the face of colliding existential threats. My latest in @thenation: thenation.com/article/world/…

A new video from @Kurz_Gesagt lays out how a nuclear war could start. World leaders need to recognize security cannot be based on weapons of mass destruction, and work together to reach global zero. We cannot count on luck forever. youtube.com/watch?v=wmP3MB…

There is a real chance US Congress might expand and extend the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act in the next defense budget. Learn more about downwinders' fight for justice. @BulletinAtomic youtube.com/watch?v=Mw_6TP…

78 years later, the impacts from the Trinity Test continue to be felt, even though downwinders from New Mexico have yet to receive compensation. But that could change. RECA passed in the Senate, and now it needs to pass in the House. Listen: ploughshares.org/pressthebutton

78 years ago today the US first use of the atomic bomb brought unparalleled devastation to the people of #Hiroshima. We must act to make sure no one ever experiences such catastrophe again. The only way to do that is to eliminate every last nuclear weapon.

⚠️ Tactical nuclear weapons—those "smaller" bombs ostensibly meant for battlefield use—sharply increase risk of civilization-ending nuclear war. In a new report, Nolan Center authors illustrate the history of this threat—and ways to bring it to an end. ➡️councilonstrategicrisks.org/2023/08/01/end…

#Oppenheimer helped usher in a perilous age of nuclear violence. We can resign ourselves to the growing risks of nuclear use while frontline communities bear the burden of their development, maintenance and use. Or we can work collectively to build a safer future beyond the bomb.

Radioactive fallout from the Trinity test reached 46 states, Canada, and Mexico. A new study from @seb6philippe et al shows how scientists underestimated the effects of the first atom bomb test. It could help expand compensation for impacted communities. nytimes.com/2023/07/20/sci…

The Manhattan Project harnessed human ingenuity to develop massively destructive power on the backs of frontline communities. Imagine what is possible if we invest our resources and minds into ensuring a safer future for generations to come. Learn more: globalzero.org
