Trident Ploughshares member Sarah Lazenby joins us from Oxford to discuss UKs nuclear weapons infrastructure and speculates why it might be that the BBC have entirely failed to report, even on its website, the United Nations treaty to ban nuclear weapons. The Treaty To Ban Nuclear Weapons is gaining signatories and support around the world all the time. She explains what a nuclear war could do to the world, comparing a modern nuclear war to the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa island in Indonesia which spewed so much dust into the Earths atmosphere that the entire world cooled down ina mini winter. http://www.tridentploughshares.org/ http://uk.icanw.org/ https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/politics/g20-summit-120-countries-adopt-nuclear-weapons-ban-treaty-arms-war-prohibition-disarmament-a7828581.html
