There were Three Major Unanswered Questions About Nuclear Power in the 1950’s:
- Can we guarantee that there will not be a major accident and a meltdown of a reactor ?
- Is there a guarantee that the low level radiations that come out of these reactors are harmless ?
- Do we have a way to deal with deadly nuclear waste ?
The answers to these three questions is still “NO”
Come to the free film showing and learn about the following:
Corruption within the nuclear industry; major corporations convicted of fraud and other illegal acts, but continue to be allowed to receive taxpayer subsidy guarantees to build new nuclear facilities
The truth about the health effects upon people caused by the radiation releases from the accidents at Three-Mile-Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima.
The continuing worldwide threat posed by the radioactive spent fuel pools at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plants
The present availability of alternative energy technologies to replace much of the installed nuclear base in the world
The conspiracy to suppress evidence of the dangers of nuclear radiation and the effects of the major nuclear accidents that have happened so far
The fallacy of a “clean” nuclear industry poised to save us from global warming
Corporate media lies about the nuclear industry, nuclear plant safety, and the harmlessness of nuclear radiation
The fact that the nuclear industry has spent close to $100 Billion on nuclear plants that have never operated for a single day.
The biological effects of different types of radiation
Depleted Uranium dust from Desert Storm 1 that is causing childhood cancers, infertility and gross fetal deformities
The nuclear power-nuclear weapons connection
The nuclear threat to all life on this planet
The Nuclearization and weaponization of outer space
The fact that Hopelessness in the population is viewed as a corporate asset
The nuclearization of our Democracy
The fallacy of our “Atoms for Peace” program
The “Nuclear Pinocchios” of the media industry
The public impact of activist opposition on the nuclear industry
The nuclear industry isn’t even built on the crumbling concrete such as is found at the Seabrook “nuke”; it is built upon lies
