The devastating consequences of nuclear explosions have significantly disrupted people’s lives and livelihoods around the world. Over 2,000 nuclear tests have taken place since testing began on 16 July 1945. The only wartime use of nuclear weapons were the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 and 9 August that same year. History has shown us the terrifying and tragic effects of nuclear explosions, with affected communities continuing to endure the biological, ecological, and cultural consequences today.
The Not One Nuclear Explosion – N.O.N.E Campaign aims to raise awareness among the younger generation that they have a role to play in saving the planet from the potentially existential threat posed by nuclear weapons. The ultimate goal is to ensure Not One Nuclear Explosion – N.O.N.E., which is the enduring struggle caused by the creation of nuclear weapons, which was meant to stop others from developing and using them.
