On January 22, 2021, the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) entered into force—giving the world what might be the best path to survival. You can learn more about the TPNW by visiting ICAN—the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons—a coalition of non-governmental organizations promoting implementation of the United Nations nuclear weapon ban treaty. For an example of the approach of one peace organization—Mass Peace Action—to the threat of nuclear disaster and the passing of the TPNW] check out the announcement for this webinar, scheduled for April 24, 2021: Building Political Support for the Nuclear Ban Treaty in Congress and at state and local levels.   Zoom event: Saturday, April 24, 2021 10:30 am-12:45 EDT
