The Chernobyl health catastrophe is still going on ...
Nuclear power has been kept outside of climate change mitigation mechanisms like CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) and JI (Joint Implementation) so far. However, some evidence shows that the nuclear lobby could be preparing its comeback at the next COP to have this dirty energy labeled as clean or carbon-free and thus benefit from new subsidies. Will our leaders let themselves be talked into financing a dangerous, costly and irrelevant technology, which would divert urgently needed money from real solutions to climate change?

Fessenheim is a specially symbolic place for all those who demand the end of atomic power production. During October 2009, the production of this, the oldest French atomic power station, will be stopped for its third ten-year visit. The inspection is to decide whether to shut down the plant and its two reactors, or to continue production for 10 more years. EDF wants to continue to use Fessenheim despite the fact that it is dangerous and un-economic, and despite the risk it represents for the surrounding population.
The Network ‘SORTIR DU NUCLEAIRE’ is the main French antinuclear coalition. It is completely independent, entirely funded by donations and the subscriptions from its members.
