We strongly believe there is NO place for this failed technology in our energy mix, for two key reasons. There’s NO need for more nuclear power in our energy system. It is unsafe, expensive and unnecessary. We don’t want the government to proceed, especially since there is enough evidence that renewable energy is cheaper and more environmentally-friendly.

We instead propose that this money is better spent to address electrification, community owned renewable energy, housing, social grants and now, procurement of the COVID-19 vaccine
