[WSMDiscuss] Nukes are illegal... now what?

[Ariel Salleh]

We all need to get our Governments to SIGN THIS TREATY.

See below in Australia even LOCAL COUNCILS are signing on.

Peace on Earth!



 
The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons entered into force on the 22nd of January, making nuclear weapons illegal under international law. You may be wondering, what do we do next? 
 
We get Australia on board, of course! The nuclear weapon ban treaty is the new standard, against which all nations are judged. Our government is coming up short. 
 
Nuclear weapons don’t protect us from conflict, climate chaos, terrorism or pandemics. They heighten risk and raise the stakes to mass destruction. The treaty is our opportunity to make history and help end the madness of the nuclear status-quo. 
 
In good news, the Philippines and Comoros recently ratified the treaty, bringing the current number of signatories to 86 and states parties to 54. Closer to home, the councils of West Torrens and Prospect in South Australia and Mt Isa in Queensland recently endorsed the Cities Appeal, calling on Australia to join the ban! 
 
There are now 34 councils <https://u1584542.ct.sendgrid.net/ss/c/AmCPGAa5TKCV0Ya3nRaidJwiPhhXPPU4AwBXWszwfTP3t46ISwqU0SGmsMQd-pWhESHvz-bGbysaohHUXEx9E5cGa04tA3QYcTRQFtVSpVsaAwW_KtQWLnm7clYaOTMWc0EKnR2jtfVw5694t123x5eMeSHSmRiOYBJnpr_qpe2k5vKuFlF1i0bIQFcvxuSCAC3m1Jl8VNuM30MYZMwQ3e9nGtwDyGAbKDQ-8uANRTgw_E-rzvhBlqjnbDeOJtcZRDwgVJC9nwrgNyU_wfRbtg/39o/a0DGJVrhTkSNn2HUz4sCgg/h1/76cMNA2xLnW7uyEOR2NhxC9hwYp4KYvMwAlr55vtKEM> in support of Australia joining the treaty!

As we approach a federal election this or next year, we'll also be supporting activists and partner organisations to raise the nuclear weapon ban treaty with parliamentarians. If you're interested in a spot of lobbying, get in touch! We'll provide materials and tailored training to anyone that can help amplify the message.
 
Finally, thank you to all who helped celebrate the entry into force of the treaty last month!
