Climate catastrophe and nuclear war are two existential threats we face as a species. The issues are also connected. They are human-engineered problems that reinforce each other, and there are already solutions for us to implement if we can overcome the misinformation, propaganda, and politicians corrupted by profiteering corporations. Join Timmon Wallis, Executive Director of NuclearBan.US, as we ask the question: How can peace activists, environmentalists, and others working for justice work together on strategies that will address both of these crises?
Timmon’s book Warheads to Windmills: Preventing Climate Catastrophe and Nuclear War is a toolkit for campaigners working on nuclear disarmament and climate change issues. His previous book, Disarming the Nuclear Argument: The Truth About Nuclear Weapons, played a role in the successful July 2017 United Nations negotiations for a Nuclear Ban Treaty and is a handbook for those seeking a safer, saner world.
