We
have to stop radioactive bailouts and waste dumps in
2019--help NIRS open the way to a nuclear-free,
carbon-free world. Do
it Now! » |
Dear
Friend,
We had a major victory last week--stopping nuclear power at
the COP24 Global Climate Summit. Thank you for all you
did to make that happen, and for celebrating it with
us.
Now
it's time to gear up for what comes next!
Every time we stop nuclear power, you know what happens? We
get closer to the safe, sustainable, 100% renewable energy
world we want, deserve, and need. That's right: Blocking what
we don't want makes room for what we do
want.
Dirty energy companies know this. The more
of our time and money they can make us waste to keep nuclear
power going, the more it holds back solar, wind, and
efficiency.
But it works the other way, too. We worked
to stop dozens of new reactors in the US over the last decade:
28 out of 30 have been cancelled, so far. And while all of
those new nukes were failing, solar and wind power took
off--proving renewable energy a success.
Help
NIRS close the door on dirty energy--with your support, we
will stop nuclear power and waste dumps in
2019!
Nuclear corporations are not giving up--there are major
fights ongoing and coming our way: huge radioactive waste
dumps ... billion-dollar bailouts for degrading, old reactors
... loosening radiation standards ... and more. In fact, the
industry just got Congress to rush through a pro-nuclear bill
right before the holiday weekend--the Nuclear Energy
Innovation and Modernization Act--which will roll back safety
inspections on old, deteriorating reactors; expedite the
licensing of experimental, new reactors; and increase
environmentally disastrous uranium mining.
That's all they have to offer: more danger, more bad
ideas, more pollution.
What we are fighting for, day in and day out, year after
year, is exactly the opposite: a safe, sustainable,
nuclear-free, carbon-free world.
Help
us shut the door on nuclear power and radioactive waste. Make
a generous contribution today.
Thanks for all you do!
