New 'Million Pleas' initiative

ICAN's new Million Pleas initiative aims to gather one million pleas from people all over the globe calling on the leaders of nine nations to finally retire their nuclear weapons.
 
 
The initiative was launched by ICAN on 6th August 2010, the 65th anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, just three days before a second atomic bomb was dropped on the Japanese city of Nagasaki.
 
 
Hiroshima and Nagasaki remain the only cities ever to have had nuclear weapons used against them in war, though thousands of nuclear tests have been conducted around the world since.
