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.

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

“[I]t is my heartfelt hope that the atomic-bombed city of #Nagasaki sends out a message to people everywhere that human beings and nuclear weapons cannot exist together.” - Nagasaki survivor Sakue Shimohira

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.

Emerging tech and cyber vulnerabilities increase the risk of nuclear use by accident, miscalculation, or misinformed escalation. @inkstickmedia's Things That Go Boom explores what could go wrong and what can lessen the risk.

"The only guarantee against the use of nuclear weapons is their complete abolition." @TheElders 👏

"Despite the passage of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act in 1990, justice remains elusive for Navajo families who have suffered from the devastating and long-lasting health and environmental effects of the uranium mining industry on Navajo land."

"J. Robert #Oppenheimer launched the atomic age, but it is up to us to end it. The future of humanity depends on it." -- @yuzakihide, Governor of Hiroshima Prefecture

#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.

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:
