El presidente del 78º período de sesiones de la Asamblea General, Dennis Francis, y el secretario ejecutivo de la Organización del Tratado de Prohibición Completa de los Ensayos Nucleares, Robert Floyd, escribieron un artículo que publicamos íntegro. En 2009 la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas proclamó el 29 de agosto Día Internacional contra los Ensayos Nucleares. Con esa fecha se recordó el cierre oficial, el 29 de agosto de 1991, del polígono de ensayos de armas nucleares de Semipalatinsk, en el actual Kazajistán. Solo en ese emplazamiento se produjeron 456 explosiones nucleares de ensayo entre 1949 y 1989. Entre 1954 y 1984 hubo un promedio de al menos un ensayo por semana de armas nucleares en algún lugar del mundo, la mayoría con una explosión mucho mayor a la del bombardeo de Hiroshima. Armas nucleares explotando en el aire, en la superficie y bajo tierra, así como bajo el mar. La radiactividad de esos ensayos nucleares se extendió por todo el planeta e impregnó el medio ambiente. Todavía hoy puede rastrearse y medirse, como en los colmillos de los elefantes, en los corales de la Gran Barrera de Coral o en las fosas oceánicas más profundas. Mientras tanto, los arsenales de armas nucleares han crecido exponencialmente. A principios de la década de 1980 había unas 60.000 armas nucleares, la mayoría mucho más potentes que las bombas utilizadas en Hiroshima y Nagasaki. La indignación pública creció. En la década de 1960 se acordó en principio que poner fin a los ensayos nucleares explosivos supondría un freno esencial al desarrollo de armas nucleares y, por tanto, fomentaría la no proliferación de armas nucleares y el desarme nuclear. En el preámbulo del Tratado sobre la No Proliferación de 1968 se habló con valentía de alcanzar “la suspensión permanente de todas las explosiones de ensayos de armas nucleares”. Pero tuvieron que pasar casi treinta años y más de cientos de explosiones de ensayos nucleares antes de que se acordara el Tratado de Prohibición Completa de los Ensayos Nucleares (TPCE) en 1996. Se trata de uno de los tratados más importantes del mundo. Qué diferencia ha hecho. Entre 1945 y 1996 se realizaron más de dos mil ensayos de armas nucleares. En los 28 años transcurridos desde 1996, ha habido menos de una docena. En este siglo solo se han realizado seis ensayos, todos ellos por parte de Corea del Norte. El Tratado se basa en una red de más de 300 instalaciones científicas de vigilancia situadas en todo el mundo que pueden detectar rápidamente un ensayo nuclear de un tamaño considerablemente menor a la explosión de Hiroshima y determinar con exactitud dónde se ha producido. Ningún Estado, en ningún lugar de la Tierra, puede realizar un ensayo de armas nucleares en secreto. CTBTO Crateres en un antiguo campo de pruebas nucleares de la antigua Unión Soviética en Semipalatinsk, en Kazajistán. El TPCE cuenta con un apoyo internacional casi universal. Lo han firmado 187 Estados y lo han ratificado 178. Con diez nuevas ratificaciones desde 2021, existe un impulso mundial contra la reanudación de los ensayos nucleares, y hay un entusiasmo especialmente elevado entre los Estados más pequeños. A pesar de estos logros, la incertidumbre internacional actual supone un obstáculo para la norma mundial contra los ensayos nucleares creada por el TPCE. ¿Y si vemos de nuevo ensayos nucleares, o incluso la utilización de un arma nuclear en un conflicto? Nos enfrentaríamos a un desplome desastroso de la confianza y la solidaridad internacional. La vuelta a la época de los ensayos nucleares sin restricciones no dejaría a salvo a ningún Estado, a ninguna comunidad, y nadie en la Tierra se libraría de verse afectado. Siempre se habla mucho de aprender de los errores. En este caso, aprendamos de los éxitos. El TPCE combina lo mejor de la diplomacia con la tecnología más avanzada en favor de un bien común mundial incuestionable. Genera transparencia y confianza, justo cuando la transparencia y la confianza parecen esca...

Final Count-down to our LIVE CHAT with the FULANI HERDSMAN , We present one of our Panelists Wahabi Oluwafemi Stephen (@oluwafemi_stephens ) Wahabi Oluwafemi is a freelance photographer fondly called "OLUYA" by close friends meaning "PHOTOGRAPHER". He specializes in Documentary and commercial photography. Wahabi Oluwafemi’s love for photography dates back to his secondary school days when he had access to a compact camera to document his day to day activities with friends for posterity. He is a Graduate of Mathematics Computer Science from the Federal University of Technology Minna, but the passion to document stories of daily living rekindled the Photography spirit in him. Oluwafemi decided to pursue a career in photography with Awards given to him and credit for the numerous works of his that is being displayed on different blogs within Nigeria including international Magazines like The Guardian UK, 'The Edge of Humanity, Abuja City Info Magazine, who have his work displayed on their bulletin. Oluwafemi is working on a photography project surrounding the Fulani Herdsmen ..

Toyota Motor generates renewable electricity at Brussels Head Office
Toyota Motor Europe strengthens commitment to environmental sustainability by generating renewable electricity on-site using a wind turbine and solar panel
As part of ongoing activities in Europe to transition its operations to clean renewable energy, Toyota Motor Europe has invested in two new technologies to produce on-site generated electricity at its Brussels headquarters. The company recently installed a wind turbine in front of its buildings, using state-of-the-art technology. Additionally, 1400 solar panels have been placed on the roof of the Toyota After Sales Centre at the same site.
TME is the first company within the Brussels area to mount a privately-owned wind turbine on its premises, and with a total capacity of 10 kW, it can generate up to 24 MWh per year. The wind turbine’s advanced design incorporates vertical wings which allow it to efficiently harness the wind from all directions and has an innovative ‘owl’ finish to reduce noise. And, standing at a height of only 23 m, it avoids any risk of interference with the nearby Zaventem airport’s operations.
Harnessing wind power is only one part of TME plan – the company’s renewable electricity supply is further boosted with the installation of 1400 photovoltaic panels capable of generating a maximum power of 460 kW. It is expected that this solar array will generate 360 MWh per year.
Clean energy has been high on Toyota’s European agenda for several years resulting in 100% renewable electricity for all European operations in 2019. The two new installations in Brussels are in line with the company’s strategy to increase its own renewable electricity production at Toyota facilities, following similar investments at other European sites (TPCE solar panels, TMUK solar panels, TMMF solar wall, Zeebrugge windmill, solar panels at Toyota Logistics Centre Madrid).
Over the last 5 years, TME facilities have undergone a comprehensive renewal programme to improve their energy efficiency, including the installation of LED lighting, A/C renewal and a new building management system. This has resulted in an overall reduction of electricity consumption by 35% from 5 GWh to 3.3 GWh per year and, thanks to the latest initiatives, TME will now be able to generate more than 10% of the yearly electricity consumption on-site.
