Even 1 single nuclear detonation could devastate our world

Let's work together to ensure the elimination of nuclear weapons. It's Time for a Global Ban on Nuclear Weapons Sign Now      Indra,   The fact that nine countries in the world still possess nuclear weapons is a threat to humanity and the Earth. In 2017, the United Nations adopted a groundbreaking agreement to ban nuclear weapons, but none of the countries with nuclear powers signed it â€" including the United States. Sign the petition to demand the nine nuclear powers sign the U.N. Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons!   The scale of devastation from a nuclear weapon is unlike anything else ever created. The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons puts the severity of the situation simply: "Even a single nuclear detonation in a modern city would strain existing disaster relief resources to the breaking point."   The immediate effects would be painful and horrific. The lasting effects would be equally as terrifying: radioactivity that's genetically damaging to humans, the destruction of our society as we know it, and the disruption of the climate.   Nuclear weapons are the most inhumane weapons ever created, and the U.S. has the most in the world, second only to Russia. It's time to ban them for good.   Sign the petition to demand Russia, United States, China, France, United Kingdom, Pakistan, India, Israel, and North Korea sign the U.N. Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons! Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S. If a single nuclear weapon were to detonate, the short- and long-term effects would be downright horrifying.
