Upcoming News Story in The Reformer

Commercially Available Family Shelter

Today I was interviewed by Brattleboro Vermont's paper, "The Reformer" on the Petition For Rule Making filed yesterday with the NRC. The article link will be posted here as soon as we have it, and a special thanks goes out to reporter, BOB AUDETTE, Reformer Staff for being on top of this important story.

For Reformer readers visiting our site, first welcome. Hidden in and around our almost 200 articles is some really great stuff, and it is my hope you will be a regular visitor, and share our link with all your friends and family, as a movement is built one person at a time. For your convenience, below are two links, the first to my petition for rule making, and the second to an article encouraging you and your friends to file your own.

Entergy Green Nuclear :: Point/CounterPoint

Above is a copy of the ad recently published by Entergy in many local New England newspapers in and around areas of the Vermont Yankee and Pilgrim nuclear power plants. It can be viewed legibly at this location. In response to this ad, the text below is being published in the Reformer newspaper in Brattleboro Vt.

VERMONT’S ENERGY FUTURE

IS
Solar Photovoltaics
Wind Power
Biomass
Geothermal
Cogeneration
Cow Power (Methane)
And Hydro.

IS
Efficiency and Conservation,
Yankee ingenuity and Self-reliance.

IS
Leading the way to a
responsible, safe,
secure, flexible,
and sustainable way of life.

IS
A common sense approach to reversing global warming
and climate disruption.

VERMONT’S ENERGY FUTURE

IS NOT
Nuclear power, the most toxic source of energy known to man,
and the single greatest threat to the economy, safety, and environment
of the region.

IS NOT
Routine emissions of ionizing radiation
that endanger us all.

IS NOT
Warning sirens, tone-alert weather radios
and unworkable evacuation plans.

IS NOT
Complicity in the manufacture of bomb-making plutonium
and depleted uranium weapons of mass destruction.

IS NOT
Adding more waste to a radioactive dump on the Connecticut River
that will be deadly for 10,000 generations.

IS NOT
Squandering money on a dying industry (despite the current surge) when
funds are needed
to develop honestly safe, clean, and reliable energies.

VERMONT’S ENERGY FUTURE?
Vermont’s decision, not Vermont Yankee’s
