March 2011 saw the beginning of the terrible Fukushima catastrophe. To this day because of damaged reactors, millions of Japanese people are still being exposed to nuclear radiations and the whole country will continue to be contaminated for thousands of years.
Exactly one year later, on March 11th, 2012, let’s act and stand together to denounce the risk of a nuclear catastrophe in France and say aloud ’’A nuclear phase out IS possible’’. Other European countries are getting rid of nuclear power, so why can’t we? Let’s react to show our solidarity with the people of Japan and with the generations of future victims.
Let’s join to form a huge human chain from Lyon to Avignon in the European region with the highest number of nuclear plants
A large majority of French people are in favour of a nuclear phase out. Yet, a ballot paper won’t be enough to force our leaders to start the necessary energy transition to free ourselves from our dependence on nuclear energy and fossil fuels.
Even though the German chancellor is in favour of atomic power, the German people united, and demonstrated in their thousands to achieve the decision of a nuclear phase out by 2022.
We too must establish a power relationship with our ruling elite who are cut off from their citizens and who, facing the major 21st century environmental issues, impose on us this nuclear danger and a head-in-the-sand policy. We are infuriated but above all we must stand united; the more, the stronger.
You can become a strong link.
Human chains have been organised monthly- every fourth Sunday- in various places in the Rhone Valley since May 2011. In Montélimar, Bourg Saint Andéol, Avignon, Die, Roman, Tournon, Aubagne, Valence, Lyon, Grenoble, Saint-Etienne, Roussillon … every single time hundreds of people from different backgrounds have joined together in a friendly, family atmosphere and are determined to make things change.
Let’s join us in the huge human chain between Avignon and Lyon on Sunday, March 11th, 2012. We look forward to seeing you at 13:30 on the various meeting places between Lyon and Avignon.
EVERY PERSON COUNTS, AND WE COUNT ON YOU
