No to Nuclear

…Why Nuclear Power Destroys Lives, Derails Climate Progress and Provokes War

Join us for a discussion of Linda Pentz Gunter’s newly published book  No To Nuclear: Why Nuclear Power Destroys Lives, Derails Climate Progress and Provokes War in a webinar moderated by Chris Nord of the C-10 Research and Education Foundation. 

The nuclear power industry wants us to believe that theirs is the only technical fix for our deliverance from the climate crisis. While the public, politicians and the media have been easily swayed, Gunter blasts aside the industry’s claims that it is safe and green. In No to Nuclear, she compellingly argues that nuclear power is too slow, too expensive, too dangerous and too integrally connected to the nuclear weapons complex to serve as a rational energy choice.  She reveals how the nuclear sector not only fundamentally harms the lives of Indigenous peoples and communities of color but also devalues nature and the environment. In short, the nuclear power industry is costing us the chance of a genuinely just energy transition.

Linda Pentz Gunter is the founder and executive director of the US-based non-profit Beyond Nuclear. The organization works to educate the public, media and decision-makers about the necessity to abolish nuclear power and nuclear weapons and the inextricable link between the two. Previously, she was a journalist at USA Network, Reuters, and The Times. She launched, and writes for Beyond Nuclear’s online magazine, Beyond Nuclear International.
