The world is at increased risk of nuclear terrorism and proliferation, while efforts toward nuclear disarmament have been deadlocked.
Even one nuclear weapon causes appalling devastation, death and lifelong suffering for survivors. And yet today, thousands of nuclear weapons remain on hair-trigger alert, aimed and poised.
Recent advocacy from influential world leaders lays out the steps that must be taken to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons. Now is the time to strengthen the grassroots momentum toward this goal. We must seize the moment and raise our voices against these monuments to human hatred and fear. Their time is gone.
What could possibly justify this state of affairs? If there ever was a rationale for holding on to nuclear weapons, such a rationale no longer exists.
It is possible to abolish nuclear weapons--to outlaw them, as chemical and biological weapons have been outlawed. Momentum toward this goal is gathering. Becoming informed and sharing awareness is the first, important step.
