EU: Nuclear Action Now

To EU Heads of State:

We call on you to run immediate, mandatory, and independent stress tests for all nuclear facilities in the EU. All tests must be overseen by an autonomous regulatory body. If plants fail they should be decommissioned. We also urge you to place a moratorium on the construction of new nuclear power plants. We must now move away from unsafe and dirty energy and towards a European energy policy based on safe and renewable fuels.

EU: Nuclear Action Now
In response to the nuclear crisis in Japan, EU Heads of State are holding an emergency summit this week.

Until the tragedy in Japan, the nuclear lobby was winning the European energy battle and calling it the “nuclear renaissance”. But after months of intense public pressure, Merkel was just forced to put the brakes on her pro nuclear policy. Across Europe, our leaders know we are waiting for action. If we build a tremendous outcry this week, we could get emergency action on nuclear plants and help turn the tide towards a safe and clean energy future.

We’ve only got until the end of the week. Let’s build a massive petition to call for the EU to run mandatory independent safety tests of all nuclear plants and facilities across Europe, close down plants that fail, and halt the building of new plants. Phasing out nuclear could take time, but this can happen now. Sign the petition and forward this to everyone you know across Europe -- it will be delivered to the Heads of State meeting:
