Petition to Chief Justice of India to stop Koodankulam Nuclear Plant

Stop Kudankulam Nuclear Plant! Help Save The Indian Ocean!  Indian Voice
   Petitioning: Chief Justice of India.
Petitioner: Ignatius Fernando started on September 4, 2012

We, ardent lovers of humanity and marine life, request the Chief
Justice of India to persuade the Govt. of India to keep the Indian
Ocean free of nuclear discharges, and convert the Koodankulam Nuclear
Plant into an alternative source of energy. Let us present a safer
world for our generations to follow.

The Indian and Russian authorities have been adamantly going ahead
with the project without respect for the apprehensions of the local
villagers.

Nuclear waste from Koodankulam is to be discharged into the Indian
Ocean and the local villagers have been engaged in peaceful protests
like hunger-strike. The Indian Government has to be persuaded to
convert this facility into an alternative source of energy.

Everyone agrees that nuclear waste will remain radioactive forever in
the Ocean…. http://www.indianvoice.org/stop-kudankulam-nuclear-plant-help-save-petition.html
