UJP Activist: Remember Fukushima!  








REMEMBER FUKUSHIMA!  
============================================================

Tuesday, March 6, 6pm

Cambridge Friends Meeting, 5 Longfellow Park

off Brattle Street near Harvard Square T

One year after the Nuclear disaster at Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear
Facility the situation is far from under control. Dangerous levels of
radioactivity are still being found hundreds of miles from the site of the
accident. More than 80,000 people have been forced to leave their homes with
little hope of returning. In addition to the incalculable health costs, the
decades-long process of clean-up and decontamination of almost 1,000 square
miles of land may cost as much as 250 billion dollars with limited prospects for
success.


Meet participants in a nineteen-day walk from Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant in NH
to Plymouth Nuclear Power Plant in Plymouth, MA on the anniversary of the
catastrophe at Fukushima, Japan and ending in Vernon, VT at Vermont Yankee
Nuclear Power Plant. The group will stop on the night of March 6th for this
event at the Cambridge Friends Meeting House near Harvard Square. There will be
a discussion on the dangers of nuclear power and current issues regarding the
Plymouth and Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Plants.



Speakers:

Tim Bullock of the New England Peace Pagoda

Gary Goldstein, Professor of Physics at Tufts University

Hattie Nestel, long time anti-nuclear power activist
