Germany: Energy Transformation Now!

Today, Chancellor Merkel and all governors will debate how and when to shut down nuclear plants.  If we act fast, we could make this the turning-point toward the cleaner, safer future that a majority of the public supports!

The Black-Yellow government is holding emergency sessions to rethink German energy policy. The nuclear lobby is openly pressuring them, refusing to pay into the agreed eco-fund and trying to cut a back-room deal. But there is hope: a broad civil society coalition is proposing an energy package that enables Germany to end its reliance on risky technologies while maintaining its climate commitments.

Now the civil society plan needs a massive public push to repel the nuclear lobby. Sign the petition to the governors and Chancellor Merkel -- it will be delivered to them before the meeting tomorrow -- Sign now and forward widely!
