<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;">Dear Friend, </p>
<div>
<a href="http://nukefreefest.org"><img height="287" alt="Festival for a Nuclear-Free Future" hspace="10" width="400" align="right" vspace="5" src="http://justicewithpeace.org/files/u415/FestivalLogo400.jpg"></a>Pioneering anti-nuclear activist <b>Harvey Wasserman</b>, Vermont Yankee shutdown campaigner <b>Randy Kehler</b>, Rep. <b>Ed Markey</b>, Cambridge Peace Commission director <b>Brian Corr</b>, and Pilgrim nuclear safety activist <b>Anna Baker</b> will educate and inform us at the <b>Festival for a Nuclear-Free Future</b> this Saturday, from 2 to 5 pm, in Copley Square, Boston.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The free, family-friendly festival will feature games, puppets, skits, music, dance, a giant globe showing where nuclear warheads and power plants are -- and where they aren't -- and information about what ordinary citizens can do to promote a saner, safer world.</div>

</div>
<div>Are U.S. nuclear plants, which are designed the same way as Fukushima, safe? Is there any way to to permanently store nuclear waste for tens of thousands of years? Do we need nuclear power to help combat global climate change, or can we power a nuclear-free future with solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>How about the threat of more than 20,000 nuclear weapons that threaten all of humanity? Can the U.S. and Russia, which have enough missiles and bombs to destroy all life on earth many times over, lead the way to global abolition of nuclear weapons?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Festival entertainers will include rockers <strong>Public Interest</strong>, folk/topical singers <strong>John Loretz and Martin Hunter</strong>, drum ensemble <strong>Rutsubo Taiko</strong>, and a group of Japanese theatre students. </div>

</div>
<div>UJP and a number of other local groups are sponsoring the Festival to address some extremely serious problems – nuclear power plants such as Vermont Yankee and Pilgrim that could become the next Fukushima and turn Greater Boston into an evacuation zone, and a world with more than 20,000 nuclear weapons and a growing number of nuclear armed states.<br><br>
But we'll also be celebrating more hopeful alternatives -- growing international support for a completely nuclear-weapons-free world through negotiation of a treaty like the ones that now ban chemical and biological weapons, landmines, and cluster bombs; and the safe, clean, sustainable energy technologies that, along with conservation, will make something as costly, dangerous, and unnecessary as nuclear power a thing of the past.<br>
