You are invited to a very special public presentation on...

The Global Nuclear Energy Partnership (GNEP)
"Recycling" Nuclear Waste and What It Means to South Carolina

Where:
 
Green Quad Learning Center, 1216  Wheat St., Bldg D, USC, Columbia


When:
Friday, May 30, 7:30 p.m.


Why:

   In the wake of the proposed "nuclear renaissance" is the unresolved issue of the enormous quantities of high- and low-level radioactive waste created by nuclear power plants. South Carolina is being considered as the site for the (GNEP) reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel, misnamed as "recycling". What will this mean to our state? Will our highways be used as transportation routes for this dangerous waste?   Is reprocessing, which produces a host of new radioactive waste steams, really recycling? What is the status of Yucca Mountain? Will it open? Will SC be the dumping ground for a new generation of nuclear waste?

Henry Wasserman, senior advisor to Greenpeace USA since 1990, and author of "Solartopia: Our Green-Powered Earth, A.D. 2030," (available at www.solartopia.org /) wrote this article in the Brattleboro Reformer .

It starts

Vermont was recently disgraced by an industry-sponsored visit from Patrick Moore, who claims to be a "founder" of Greenpeace, and who is out selling nuclear power as a "green" technology.

The two claims are roughly equal in the baldness of their falsehood.

Thanks to Jim Riccio at Greenpeace.
