The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN):
At this time, nuclear weapons are the most dangerous weapons in the world. According to
a report from Telegraph, there are 14,900 estimated nuclear weapons in the world. Telegraph
research further showed that only the nuclear weapons of the United States and Russia have the
power equating to 6,600 megatons. This is the tenth part of the power that earth daily receives
from the Sun (Kirk). If this is just the power of two countries’ nuclear weapons, just imagine

using various techniques of visual arguments. These visible cases range from the logo of ICAN
to the images drawn from the rallies conducted by ICAN at different places. The strategy of
ICAN is bearing fruit because their models have string rhetorical appeal and the strong message
for the people. Their visuals arguments are contributing to the cause of ICAN effectively. Let's
take a look at two visuals obtained from the official sources of ICAN. Image no. 1 is the official
logo of ICAN. This logo itself is the message. It has an appropriate color scheme, proper use of
icons, and proper deliverance of message in a single picture.
