Ban the Bomb: Alive and Kicking

Nice animation from Vidar Bakkeli made for ICAN, the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons.
Banning Nuclear Weapons isn’t the most salient activist movement these days. Remember the 90s.
That is what ICAN tries to change:
“Our aim is to inspire young people to take action and raise awareness on the fact that nuclear weapons do not make us safer because they cannot address the threats that young people and our societies have to face today.”

These are the arguments from ICAN:
- because there are 20.000 nuclear weapons in the world today, and represent a constant threat to humanity;
- because in case of a nuclear attack, borders would not protect us from radiations and climate change;
- because the resources that we invest in nuclear weapons could be reinvested, helping the economy to get back on track;
- because we believe that change does not just happen we, collectively, make it happen!

ICAN is at Facebook too.
