75 years ago, hundreds of thousands of civilians perished in two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki Japan. Let us work towards a world of peace without the threat of nuclear annihilation.
The current administration is doing just the opposite. We encourage everyone to let your representatives know that spending more money on nuclear weapons and another free for all arms race is not the right choice to ensure the survival of our planet.

"We human beings have created many of the problems in today’s world. As long as we have strong negative emotions and we view our fellow beings in terms of ‘us’ and ‘them’, there will be a tendency to try to destroy them. We must recognise the oneness of humanity, and understand that we will not achieve peace merely through prayer; we need to take action." - His Holiness the Dalai Lama on remembering the victims of warfare throughout time and the nuclear bombs in Japan
