One of our core values at the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation is shameless idealism. We live this value every day in our efforts to reach Nuclear Zero: a world without nuclear weapons. But President Barack Obama earlier this year spoke of nuclear disarmament as if it were a far off goal: “Peace with justice means pursuing the security of a world without nuclear weapons—no matter how distant that dream may be.” We at NAPF must disagree.

There are still over 17,000 nuclear weapons worldwide and we cannot waste time merely imagining a distant future without them. We must continue to wage all-out peace, in one unified voice, and in innumerable ways.

The only way to keep our world and our loved ones safe is to relentlessly strive for the total elimination of nuclear weapons. We must remain steadfast in our goal to educate, engage, and mobilize the public in organized advocacy, working until nuclear weapons no longer threaten the sanctity of our world.

Nuclear Zero must not be a distant dream. Nuclear Zero must be now. For the seven billion people with whom we share this Earth, we must let our shameless idealism lead us to a nuclear weapons-free today.

PAGE 1 2012 NUCLEAR AGE PEACE FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT • VOLUME 23

PAGE 2 NUCLEAR ZERO • SEVEN BILL ION REASONS WHY

In 1945 the first nuclear weapon was tested and, within weeks, the next two nuclear weapons were used by the United States on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

By 1986 there were over 70,000 nuclear weapons in the world, nearly all in the arsenals of the US and USSR.

Today there are just over 17,000 nuclear weapons in the world, which means that, since the mid-1980s, the world has shed some 53,000 nuclear weapons. That’s progress, but it’s far from sufficient.

There are still some 2,000 nuclear weapons on hair-trigger alert in the US and Russian arsenals. These weapons are accidents waiting to happen.

Atmospheric scientists tell us that, in a regional nuclear war between India and Pakistan in which 50 nuclear weapons from each side were exploded on the other side’s cities, enough soot would be put into the stratosphere to block warming sunlight, shorten growing seasons, and cause crop failures leading to a billion deaths by starvation globally. Nuclear famine is only part of the havoc that a “small” nuclear war would cause.

Zero is the only safe number of nuclear weapons on the planet. It is what the human future requires of us. For the sake of the seven billion inhabitants of our planet, for everyone who matters to each of us, for everything that matters to each of us, we must strive for and achieve Nuclear Zero.

Another necessary number is One, because each one of us has the power to make a difference with our voice, our actions and our support. When a dedicated portion of the seven billion Ones on the planet are joined together and motivated, they can achieve any great and necessary goal, including Nuclear Zero.

At the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation, we are committed to providing Peace Leadership that emphasizes the Power of One in achieving Nuclear Zero.

C O N S O R T I U M B U I L D I N G

Lawrence Wittner, a NAPF Associate and well-known historian of the peace movement, wrote recently: “Today’s multiplicity of peace and disarmament groups has its benefits, most notably the ability to appeal to a variety of constituencies. But this organizational fragmentation, common among groups composed of independent-minded dissenters, makes united action around programs and activities difficult. As a result, the movement is sometimes less than the sum of its parts.”

In 2012 the NAPF Board took Wittner’s message to heart and developed a strategic plan that focuses on working with a consortium of top NGOs around shared campaign agendas. The plan states: “NAPF will work with other civil society organizations – nationally and internationally, within and outside the nuclear abolition field – to achieve a new treaty…for the phased, verifiable, irreversible and transparent elimination of nuclear weapons.”

This directive seeks to amplify our impact by bringing together organizations that will act collectively to deliver a strong, unified message to governments and the public, building the political will needed for the global abolition of nuclear weapons.

NAPF actively collaborates with, among others, Middle Powers Initiative, Alliance for Nuclear Accountability, Roots Action, Abolition 2000 and International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN).

From organizing joint action alerts to co-sponsoring briefing papers to developing awareness campaigns, our collective actions create influence and power as we move ever closer to Nuclear Zero: a world without nuclear weapons.

The Foundation grew to more than 60,000 members in 2012. United by our common cause, we delivered a message of peace and change through direct action. With every grassroots effort, the goal of nuclear weapons abolition gained precious momentum.

We often hear that people would like to live in a nuclear weapons-free world but feel powerless to do anything about it. Our Action Alerts give people the power to contact elected representatives and directly impact policies related to nuclear weapons abolition. Below are a few examples of how we influenced policies in 2012. Add your voice by signing up at www.wagingpeace.org/goto/action.

Highlights included:• 7,200NAPFmemberssent

messages to President Obama to stop the Minuteman III Intercontinental Ballistic Missile test scheduled on the 58th anniversary of the Castle Bravo nuclear test (March 1). Our pressure helped cause the Air Force to cancel this provocative test.

Director of Programs, Rick Wayman, headed to the halls of Washington for the Alliance for Nuclear Accountability’s DC Days. The conference focused on “Nuclear Budget Accountability Now!” Over 70 grassroots activists from around the country spoke about the impact of nuclear weapons in their communities and the urgent need to control an escalating nuclear weapons budget. One hundred meetings took place with members of Congress, their staffs, and top officials in the Obama Administration.

The 2012 PreparatoryCommittee (PrepCom) for the 2015 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference convened in Vienna early in May. NAPF representatives organized a delegation of 40 young people from five European countries to voice their support for nuclear weapons abolition. We hosted a seminar on “The

Consequences of Continued Failure of Article VI of the NPT” in which speakers discussed the necessity for nuclear weapon states to fulfill their long-overdue obligations to achieve nuclear disarmament. The Foundation also presented a paper entitled “Nuclear Weapons and a Sustainable Future” in which the non-nuclear weapon countries were encouraged to take bold action by boycotting the 2015 NPT Review Conference and instead holding an alternative conference that would begin preparations for a Nuclear Weapons Convention. The paper was distributed to ambassadors and delegates at the Conference.

inspires the next generation to seek, support and act for a more peaceful world, free of nuclear weapons. Paul Chappell, our Peace Leadership Director, reached out to more than 3,000 people in 2012, lecturing and giving workshops across the country and abroad. This training transformed thinking about nuclear weapons, war, and how to effect positive social change.

2012 also saw the first week-long summer course with 24 participants learning the skills of persuasion and nonviolence, the same powerful form of leadership practiced by Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and Susan B. Anthony. There are now plans for week-long courses at the University of San Diego, the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, northern Uganda and Santa Barbara; and a half dozen other trainings scheduled in the US and in Canada.

INTERNS learn to lead the wayRecent intern Lulu Dewey contacted Mona Saghri, a 2012 intern, to get the scoop on what it’s like to work at NAPF. The students in our Internship Program are indispensable when it comes to achieving the Foundation’s goals. As Lulu found out, Mona left NAPF deeply committed to a world free of nuclear weapons and armed with the skills to wage peace. Lulu’s interview with Mona follows.

What was your educational background before interning at NAPF? How much did you know about critical issues in the nuclear age? I received my B.A. in Political Science with an International Relations emphasis from UCSB. In retrospect, my classes did not paint a complete picture of critical issues in the nuclear age. I learned much about political issues but the “human element” was absent.

What were some of the meaningful projects that you worked on?I especially enjoyed writing for NAPF’s blog. The blog-style writing allowed me to channel my inner creativity and I enjoyed the freedom of choosing what aspect of the nuclear weapons issue I wanted to research and discuss.

What was something especially valuable that you learned during your time at NAPF? I was always provided with guidance whenever I sought it, but for the most part, I was given a lot of freedom and independence with what projects I wanted to take on. Ultimately, the most valuable thing I learned during my time at NAPF was how global peace is not a vague dream but an attainable reality.

What work have you been engaged with since your time at NAPF? How has NAPF shaped your current trajectory?I currently work at the Social Science Research Council, a nonprofit organization in New York City. Working at NAPF has helped me realize that no matter what I do in life, I want to make sure it involves making the world a better and more peaceful place.

At the 18th Annual Sadako Peace Day Ceremony, over 100 guests gathered to remember the victims of the 1945 bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and all innocent victims of war. The keynote speaker was Kikuko Otake, a hibakusha (survivor) of the US atomic bombing of Hiroshima. With musical performances and poetry readings in the tranquility of the Sadako Peace Garden, we reflected on the past and were inspired to build a nuclear weapons-free future.

The 2012 Frank K. Kelly Lecture on Humanity’s Future featured legendary peace leader and whistleblower Dr. Daniel Ellsberg, who is widely known for leaking the Pentagon Papers to the press in 1971 and changing how the public viewed its government and the Vietnam War. His unparalleled depth of knowledge was apparent to all as Dr. Ellsberg

spoke extemporaneously for nearly two hours, educating and engaging over 600 people with his lecture “Nuclear Weapons and Humanity’s Future.” Dr. Ellsberg made an urgent case for organized advocacy to abolish nuclear weapons in a lecture that left everyone inspired to take action.

Keynote speaker at the 18th Annual Sadako Peace Day, Kikuko Otake is a survivor of the US bombing of Hiroshima and the author of Masako’s Story: Surviving the Atomic Bombing of Hiroshima.

Dr. Daniel Ellsberg was a consultant to the Department of Defense and the White House, specializing in the command and control of nuclear weapons, nuclear war plans, and crisis decision-making before releasing the Pentagon Papers. He spoke emphatically about the urgent need to abolish nuclear weapons in our lifetime.

Established in 2002, the Kelly Lecture series honors the vision of the late Frank K. Kelly, who was a founder and Senior Vice President of the Foundation. Each year a lecture is presented by a distinguished individual to explore humanity’s present circumstances and ways by which we can shape a more promising future for our planet and its inhabitants.

The Foundation’s 29th Annual Evening for Peace highlighted the need for peace leadership if we are to assure our common future. The 2012 Peace Leadership Award was presented to Senator Tony de Brum of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. As a first-hand witness to the destruction caused by many of the 67 nuclear and thermonuclear weapons tested in the Marshall Islands by the US between 1946 and 1958, Senator de Brum has dedicated his life to extricating his people from the legacy of that testing and to pursuing a peaceful world, free of nuclear weapons. More than 200 guests and thousands of online viewers learned how we, as citizens of the world, can make an impact to end the nuclear-weapon threats that confront us all.

NUCLEAR ZERO7 Billion Reasons WhyThere are seven billion of us on this planet. Seven billion reasons why Nuclear Zero is crucial if we are to leave a safe and secure world for our children, grandchildren and all children of the future.

Nuclear weapons are symbols of an imploding human spirit. They are, literally, a fire that robs the air of decency. We must come together as one voice to rid the world of these horrific weapons. At this moment in human life, there is no greater purpose than eliminating nuclear weapons from the planet.

Join us as we wage all-out peace and chart the path to Nuclear Zero.
