Before 2022, you probably thought nuclear weapons were blasé – it was therefore 20th Century — but Russian nuclear saber rattling in Ukraine can practice your dunk-and-cover drills. Where should you turn for expert opinion on nuclear proliferation in the modern age? The What Way the Wind Festival, starting this week!
The third annual What Way the Wind Festival tackles the problems of nuclear weapons in our modern age and the risk of rising sea levels through a mix of arts and education. Learn about sea level rise by riding Madaket with Aldaron Laird, Jerry Rohde and Marnie Atkins. Contemplating the madness of war and containment strategies through burlesque. Engage with some of the deepest minds on the topic in panel discussions. Jack Irvine, Chairman of the Festival, joins Gang Green to discuss this year’s lineup and the prospects for nuclear nonproliferation.
