ZERO NUKES is a campaign calling for a full world-wide nuclear disarmament. Commissioned by the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, the campaign is envisioned to support organizations dedicated to the prohibition of nuclear weapons.

The communications strategy ZERO NUKES focuses on the ‘zero’ as a graphic, visual and conceptual element common to all languages. The structure of the campaign aims to convey a symbol of global unity for a single non-controversial cause: to avoid the destruction of all life on earth.
