Making a Differene

From the movie called Nobelity, I felt very shocked about the news from Sir Joseph Rotblat when he said that U.S, Britain, China, France, India, Israel, Pakistan, Soviet Union still make nuclear weapons today. Joseph Rotblat signed a letter along with Einstein which was delivered to the U.S president. I don't really understand why people spend trillions of money on nuclear weapons rather than helping out other people in the world. I'm quite amazed in 1991, Jody Williams started her land mine campaign which is ISBL and made a peace treaty to make countries sign to stop making land mines. The organization started from two people which is unbelievable. I think that Jody Williams is making the world a better place by trying to ban landmines. Every year, at least 15-20 thousand people die from landmines. Counties like Mongolia, Cambodia, Afghanistan, Croatia, etc still have stock piles of mines today. She also convinced 1,000 NGO's from 60++ countries to support her foundation. "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has." M.Mead. 156 countries took part in the treaty although major countries failed to sign like the U.S,etc. Click here to know more about Jody Williams and her foundation.
