We at NoNuclearNow, want to ask you, the people of the world, for your thoughts and ideas on what legislative pressure we can bring to oppose the looming unchecked nuclear energy proliferation in Ontario, Canada and the world. Some examples --some successful, at that, so take heart, everyone!
1 In the USA, some recent proposed nuclear energy reactor projects have been stopped, because legislation has banned taxpayer bailouts of any overruns by new nuclear energy reactor constructions... The nuclear companies themselves suspended their projects! What does that say about the nuclear industry's claims of being efficient, cost-effective, safe...
2 In Canada, anti-nuclear activists are seeking similar legislation amendments to the provincial Ontario Government's Green Act.
3 In Scotland, we were provided with the following comment from Utility Week; a quote that suggests another avenue that the public may use to bring pressure to bear on nuclear energy proliferation: planning and zoning.
"Mike Weir, the Scottish National Party MP for Angus, insisted: "The Scottish Government are entitled to exercise their power under the electricity and planning legislation"."

Nuclear is safe?! Chernobyl radiation cloud went across EU, UK, and even northeast North America
The nuclear industry wants the politicians, media and people of the world, to believe that nuclear power is SAFE! Please let your contacts, family and friends know the simple real, PROVEN fact: the nuclear disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear energy reactor in 1986 released radioactive clouds that were RECORDED and REPORTED by governments and scientists.
These radioative clouds drifted across the EU, the UK, to northeast North America.
We are trying to get the exact statistics about these radiation clouds, and post them here for you... Maybe, some of you --our wonderful readers and supporters of NoNuclearNow-- can help! If you know, send us one of your great emails and let us know what you know!
We understand that radiation levels were up everywhere, where the clouds drifted.
And there is concern that various governments and officials covered up the extent of the danger and consequences this radioactive exposure had on the health of the people of the world!
We heard (unconfirmed) that Scotland's radiation levels were up 10 times over the normal after Chernobyl. We'll try to ask the Honourable Scottish MP Mike Weir, an anti-nuclear proponent, whom we just discovered, may have hit upon an AMAZING admission by a top British nuclear industry exec, that nuclear energy is dangerous!!
We'll be posting more on this later hopefully soon. The Ontario Government's decision on nuclear is looming! And with this nuclear ramp-up, a new looming global nuclear age, that would destroy humanity and civilization.... Please, let's get the information out there! Nuclear is NOT safe. Nuclear is NOT green. Nuclear is Not cost-effective... Nuclear energy is NOT the answer.

Scottish MP, Honourable Mike Weir (SNP) catches British
Posted: 2009 May 4. Original material dated April 15, 2009

MP Mike Weir catches British nuclear executive, admitting that nuclear is dangerous?!
We are not quite sure of the source of the quote by Scottish MP, the Honourable Mike Weir, below; but we shall post our followup. AND maybe, we'll see if we can an interview with MP Mike Weir. Here's the piece:
Scottish MP cites senior British Nuclear Fuels executive, admitting to dangers of nuclear energy, on BBC Radio!
Speaking on the BBC Radio 4 Today programme, David Bonser said … "the Government have decided to go ahead with nuclear power here in the UK. Now, of course, there’s lots of risks around that…"
Mr Weir said:
"David Bonser’s assessment underlines exactly why Scotland is right to reject the development of dangerous, unnecessary and costly new nuclear power stations."Nuclear is unreliable as well as unnecessary. Installed capacity of renewables in Scotland already exceeds installed capacity of nuclear power. We can achieve secure, clean, low carbon energy by harnessing Scotland's vast green potential, tackling climate change without adding to the burden of toxic radioactive waste.
"The risks and uncertainties of nuclear power, in terms of waste disposal, decommissioning, security and health concerns, or cost, are far too great.
