EDF is about to dump hundreds of thousands of tonnes of
nuclear-contaminated “mud” into a marine reserve in the
Severn Estuary – and let it wash up on beaches along the coast.
But we can stop them!
Courageous grassroots conservationists have just won permission
to challenge the plan in court. If they win, EDF
will be forced to ditch its toxic scheme, protecting
hundreds of thousands of local residents and a crucial
breeding ground for fish – including protected species and the
endangered European Eel.
But the court date is this week, and the heroes at Save
the Severn don’t yet have the cash to pay their legal
team.
That’s why they’re asking for your help. If we all chip in, we
can make sure they have the best expert help to defeat this
nightmare – and show companies everywhere they can’t just
dump toxic waste where they want. Are you
in?

We don’t have much time. Thousands of tonnes of contaminated
sediment is already lined up. Tests show it's laced with both
chemical and nuclear industrial pollutants.
EDF already tipped mud from near Hinkley into waters near Cardiff
in 2018 – and now Welsh beaches are showing increased
radioactivity. We can’t allow this to keep
happening.
The heroic team at Save the Severn has one shot at
stopping this. With your help, we can ensure this
contaminated sludge is kept out of our protected Severn Estuary –
overturning EDF’s permit in court and making clear people won’t
stand for this kind of corporate bullying. Anything extra we raise
will be used for other campaigns to fight polluting companies like
EDF in the UK and around the world.

It’s an age old story – mega corporations, backed by craven
governments, abuse their power to dump toxic pollutants into rivers
and on innocent communities. But when people fight back, they can
win amazing victories – protecting their homes for generations to
come. Let’s make this happen here!
