Young Obama supporters tell Obama – Nuclear is Wrong Way

Dear Mr. President – Nuclear Power Will Set Back Race Against Global Warming « It’s Getting Hot In Here 2 Feb 2010 Dear President Obama,According to a report released by Environment America in November, the long process to build nuclear plants along with the carbon intensity of production will set us back in the fight against global warming. The next 5-10 years are CRITICAL for the future of my generation and the planet that your daughters will inherit. Bring the boldness of your campaign to Capitol Hill in Washington and tell the truth.Tell the Senators in Congress and the American people that nuclear power is the wrong way to go. Lets invest the $54 billion dollars in your budget in energy efficiency – which will save American families money and save energy at the same time.

I hope, that if you didn’t get the report when it was released in November, that you take a look at it now. It makes a clear argument as to why Nuclear is the wrong choice for America and the world.

Sincerely,Gabriel ElsnerEx-Director, Students for Barack Obama, UC BerkeleyP.S. We sent over 300 Berkeley students who believed in your message for a CLEAN energy economy to swing states to “get out the vote”- and those young leaders need the leadership you showed during the campaign more than ever.
