All production of bombs and deadly weapons, shotting/bombing and keeping them must realy contributing to the climate change I guess 'cos all the effects still go out into our enviornment. Another problems lies ahead how,where to dispose all this missiles because people are starting to see clearly the bad effects of war and we want nothing but peace to all humanity.

Russia is making a floating atom plant ! It will be launched on 2010. For more info: news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6562925.stm (DUH!) Russians say it will help with electricity in their country, power water purification, etc. It is not precisely a "nuclear weapon", but if the safety measurements are not successful, devastating things can happen... And they are already making it, so there's not much to do. ...It may seem a bit pessimistic, but this is part of world news. Maybe a thread about top news could be added? As activists I think we need to be aware of what is happening in the world, today, and what Russia is doing now is going to affect our generation. Hope you are enjoying your day , ViCtoria*

I don't get Russia they sure know how to look for trouble *shakes head* this will probably lead to yet another fued, probably something like the cold war after WW2 suspicions and threats on both sides.. And even if not what if this thing leaks or what ever this is a serious threat to nature and human beings! Why don't they invest this money to energy that's safe and green like all these countries recently promised??? By the way I just remembered a quote from Alyssa (it was orginally about landmines(in Angola) but this is basically the same, with nuclear weapons) she said: "I believe that no weapon should out last a war, they're basically still fighting the war because these landmines haven't been found and people still die from them" So I thought it was sort of the same with nuclear weapons and energy, look at what happened in Japan in WW2 a lot of people are still paying the price of the nuclear bomb that was dropped back than (more than 60 years! ago) And with poluted ground and all that from nuclear power left overs. I think that's just wrong and people that invent these things are morons (excuse my french) because they're creating something that could end up destroying the planet, who ever thought nuclear weapons and power was a good idea obviously didn't think it through properly....

It is a big no no for nuclear weapons for sure , but telling countries to throw them away will be in vain.....I used to think we can load nuclear wastes on a space shuttle and let that shuttle land on some distant star , this way we can make sure it doesn't harm mother earth and it will generate more light on the star..... even if they do not use it , it is a source of power and influence over other countries.....and thats what Russia might be trying to do ....to revive old glories......

I totally agree with you guys! Nukes are the worst weapon because they don't hurt, they destroy . As for Russia, I am sure that there are better ways for producing energy, like using solar systems and so on.... Why should countries want factories that if they become old they kill with their power humans and nature? ?!!!!!

Man !!! i hate them...................
i really hate it............ NO to all weapons.......
NuKes are Worser destroyers............
All nations spend billions in nuke research while not at all taking steps to eradicate Poverty and illiteracy........ Is this really a world? Citizens of one's own country are dying in lack of food to eat, while they have some white collars in useless research for years...., spending a REAL, HUGE amount....
We never want them to assure Luxurious life, but they should assure Basic employment necessary for EXISTENCE right?
I hate them
If at all i have a chance..... i ll prison all who say they need nukes,war and put them in a single planet away with all their equipments and supporters....
let them do what ever they want !!!
I believe our earth is for the ones who want to live in pace and bliss.........

I guess I'll take on the unpopular vote. Nukes do have a purpose in this world, MAD. Even though MAD may seem pointless it is really a safety net. North Korea has Nuclear weapons and has expressed their desire to remove the USA from existance, the only thing currently holding them back is the fear of a counter attack, mainly that of a nuclear one. I would hate to see anything used (as whould most of the world), but if someone has a gun pointed at you and wants you dead, you don't put your gun away because you don't like violence.
Regarding nuclear power plants, they have proven to be much safer than those back in the 60's and 70's. France gets most of it power for nuclear power, and it hasn't had an incident ever (over 10 years of safty). Right now, nuclear is the most powerful and cost effective power source there is, and it is very enviromentally friendly (no CO2 involved in the process).

ok, new to this forum. But really guys? 1) No matter how dangerous they are, if a weapon (any weapon) gives an upper hand to its wielder, it WILL BE OBTAINED and most likely used. 2) the more power the weapon has to bestow, the greater its value and more sought after it will be. 3) obviously, i dont want the world to be destroyed, but as technology advances, it will take less and less people to wreak more and more havoc, as a result, an international opinion (no matter how prevalent) against nukes will be completely destroyed by just one power hungry dictator. In short, nukes, as long as they are powerful, are here to say. Sorry.

We have to remember Nuclear Weapons is the most important part of today society. Why you ask? Well because it allow America to be one of the strongest and power country in the world. This is important because with out a few of these weapons countries around the world would be in a state of distress so let look at this and question if maybe even though we disagree with the weapons don't they help.

well my point was that they shouldn't have been made.. I'm just wondering what posseses people to build something like this? If no one had a weapon no one would have to fear weapons being used.. Anger and fear fuel each other and ultimately fear and anger turn into violence.. Because we have to fear nuclear weapons we need them.. That's the situation today..
