Ukraine’s nuclear time bomb

If you are in Vienna, Austria for the ICAN Nuclear Ban Forum, June 18 and 19, please consider attending the session, Nuclear winter is coming closer, maybe from the Eastern Flank. Beyond Nuclear’s Linda Pentz Gunter, Dr Jonas Jägermey from Columbia University Climate School, and Victor Chelashow, IPPNW Student Representative, Kenya, will discuss how nuclear weapons and nuclear reactors in the Russia-Ukraine war zone could bring about disaster leading to a regional and global humanitarian catastrophe. Beyond Nuclear will focus on why a breach of any of Ukraine’s reactors could produce widespread and enduring harm that would dwarf the 1986 Chernobyl disaster and why nuclear power needs to be in the same conversation as nuclear weapons when working for abolition.
