"I
don't think the government really wants
us to know the facts." - Christie Brinkley
A
major Energy Bill now before Congress contains a clause
that could force taxpayers to underwrite construction
of an unknown number of new nuclear power plants.
This provision is potentially a blank check that could
use tens of billions of your tax dollars to burden our
nation with yet more indefensible radioactive terror targets
and their waste. Please help us remove this clause from
the pending Energy Bill, so our money can instead fund
the renewable and efficiency technologies that can solve
global warming, guarantee a secure economy and create
millions of jobs. Sign the petition. Learn more.

Long Island Soundkeeper Terry Backer will join environmental
activist Nancy Burton at a press conference on March 19, 2007
at 9 AM in front of the Hartford Superior Court (95 Washington
Street) to call for converting the Millstone Nuclear Power
Station to a fish-friendly cooling system.
A court hearing is scheduled for 9:30 AM on March 19, 2007
on Burton’s application for a temporary injunction to
put Millstone in cold shutdown during the impending annual
fish larvae migration. The microscopic larvae are swept by
the billions into the Millstone cooling water intakes and
destroyed.
As Long Island Soundkeeper, Backer has spearheaded federal
litigation to convert power plants to closed cooling systems.
“Once-through cooling - what is used at Millstone -
is equivalent to a fish-killing machine and it needs to stop,”
said Backer. Visit

Rep.
Betsy Ritter: Whose Side Are You On?
 Rep.
Elizabeth ("Betsy") Ritter, whose district includes
Waterford, invited her fellow members of the state legislature's
Energy & Technology Committee to visit Millstone's above-ground
high-level nuclear waste storage facility. Why she did so is
not clear from the Committee's minutes. Rep. Ritter should be
proposing legislation to disallow above-ground storage of high-level
nuclear waste in Connecticut unless it is proven safe from acts
of terrorism. Millstone is storing enough high-level nuclear
waste above-ground to dwarf the effects of Chernobyl should
its security be breached. The legislative clock is ticking,

people!
