People Against Wylfa B are running a new online petition against nuclear newbuild in Wales (or anywhere).
Ask your MP to sign EDM 1574
Ask your MP to sign the Early
Day Motion No. 1574 on the Energy White Paper and Nuclear Power.
This calls on the Government to reject proposals for a new generation of
nuclear power stations and instead invest the money in additional energy
efficiency initiatives and renewable sources of energy generation.
See "Write
to your MP" for how to contact your MP.
Help counter nuclear propaganda
Thanks to Google Alerts, it is now possible to know that in newspapers, magazines and blogs around the world, large numbers of articles, reports and comments are appearing that present nuclear power in a favourable light and gloss over its many problems. You can help with an easy-to-do online campaign to correct some of the misleading information that is being spread, and to raise awareness of a major alternative to nuclear power.
Nuclear Pledge – active resistance to new nuclear power
The Nuclear
Pledge is a promise:
• to resist paying any nuclear surcharge in your electricity bills;
• to vote in a future General Election for a political party that promises
a green electricity strategy, not nuclear power;
• to take other non-violent actions to oppose nuclear power.
