It must become a right of every person to die of
old age. And if we secure
this right for ourselves, we can, coincidentally, assure it for the planet.

48 years ago today, as
recalled by Charles "Chip" Bohlen, a distinguished member of the U.S. foreign service:
Emotions are often difficult to recall, but I well remember feeling,
as I sat under the soaring arches of the great cathedral, that the
future had collapsed on the present. Here I was, with thirty-five
years of experience in the Foreign Service and extremely skeptical
about the great men in public life, yet completely crushed by
Kennedy's death. I still feel
that a great future was extinguished by his death.

15.9. Conclusion
U.S. President
John F. Kennedy speaking
about the necessity to stop atmospheric nuclear
tests said in June 1963:
. . . The number of children and grandchildren
with cancer in their bones, with leukemia in their
blood, or with poison in their lungs might seem
statistically small to some, in comparison with
natural health hazards, but this is not a natural health
hazard—and it is not a statistical issue. The loss of
even one human life or the malformation of even
one baby—who may be born long after we are
gone—should be of concern to us all. Our children
and grandchildren are not merely statistics toward
which we can be indifferent.
The
Chernobyl catastrophe demonstrates
that the nuclear industry’s willingness to risk
the health of humanity and our environment
with nuclear power plants will result, not only
theoretically, but practically, in the same level of hazard as
nuclear
weapons.
—Chapter 15. Consequences of
the Chernobyl Catastrophe for Public Health and the Environment
23 Years Later, page 326.

Consequences of the Catastrophe for People and the
Environment.

Stubbornly continuing to
play
with the poison fire – nuclear power as well as nuclear
weapons – consigns all life on Earth – now and
into
eternity – to extinction. And for
what? So some people can line their pockets? There is much we
can
do and need to do to understand the threat to all life, for all time,
of nuclear power and move our selves away from this omnicidal path
of unconscious oblivion.
