The Politics of Nuclear Waste seminar Sunday 18 September

September 12, 2016

The Politics of Nuclear Waste

Under strident pressures from Business SA and the Murdoch media, the Weatherill Labor government is moving to open up South Australia as the prime storage site for the radioactive wastes of the global nuclear industry.
Why are South Australia’s elites pushing this macabre re-invention of the state’s economy?
What are the environmental dangers, and the financial risks?
What lies behind the abandonment by the state government of decades of Labor policy?
What are the strategies needed to defeat the nuclear dumpsters?
Speakers:
· Roman Orszanski, Friends of the Earth

· Dan Monceaux, independent film-maker and researcher

· Renfrey Clarke, Anti-Nuclear Coalition

Come and join in the discussion!

Sunday, September 18, 2 pm
Box Factory Community Centre, 2 Regent St, Adelaide
hosted by Left Unity
