One of the most compelling reasons to take action is that the
Landmine Crisis can be solved. Since the Ottawa Treaty in 1997
147 countries have made it illegal to produce, use or trade in
the weapon. Trade has gone from 43 countries trading in 1995 to
0 today. Producers have dropped from 54 to 12, only 2 of which
produced last year. 62 million landmines in stockpile have been
destroyed. With your help we can make the world mine-safe in our
lifetime.
