No New Nuclear
Nuclear power is not the solution.
It contributes to warming and
creates waste like nothing else.
Be it small modular reactors (SMR), or large plants, it is not the answer.
Nuclear, like fossil fuels, funds mining that harms indigenous folks outside the UK. Out of sight out of mind, right?
Nuclear plants (inc SMRs), are unsuitable in our changing climate. They’re ineffective/forced to close during heatwaves.
Plants will face ever frequent flooding. Imagine nuclear waste entering our seas as a result. The public and planet lose out.
Investing heavily in nuclear deflects from (cleaner/greener) renewables.
We urge the Government to rethink the introduction of new nuclear, and to include a ‘No New Nuclear’ clause in all climate planning.
No new nuclear. Fund ✨sustainable✨ power.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about new nuclear plants, but we're not sure if you want the Government to ban new nuclear plants, or just not provide funding for new nuclear power generation.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
