Environmental health: Nuclear energy - Is it worth the risk?

Have we fallen off track with "safety first"?
OR
Nuclear Reprocessing plant
Do we make exceptions and put money first?

Why not advocate for change - for "SAFE", "HEALTHY" & "BETTER"
alternative energies - i.e. solar, wind, geothermal.

Have we forgotten?

- Fukoshima, Japan 2011

What's next?

For instance, the most recent safety issue (not the first either) at
a local nuclear energy plant in Scriba, NY - Nine Mile Point.



Are these valid health concerns for a safe and healthy environment for our survival?


PEACE!

    Is it just me?
    How many times will this have to continue?

    What about the public's health and safety?
    Is nuclear energy really worth it?
    Is nuclear energy really safe?

    Because that's what we are told from pro-nuclear individuals/groups...
    I really want to believe nuclear energy is safe BUT I'm finding it impossible at this point.

    What is happening in Japan impacts EVERYONE -
    This is uni-versal!
