Arnie Gunderson and Ian Fairlie to speak in Cumbria on 11 March, about nuclear plans

Arnie Gundersen and Ian Fairlie, Keswick Reminder https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2015/03/07/we-need-to-talk-about-moorside-letter-in-the-keswick-reminder/ Rod & Jill Donington-Smith   

In West Cumbria we already host Sellafield, one of the most hazardous sites in the world. It is now proposed that three new nuclear power plants are to be built next door at Moorside and the threat of a Geological Disposal Facility (GDF) being imposed on us still remains.

On Wednesday 11 March at 7.30 Arnie Gunderson and Ian Fairlie, two
internationally respected authorities on the nuclear industry, will be
speaking at the Skiddaw Hotel about the Moorside project and the Waste
Isolation Pilot Project near Carlsbad in New Mexico, which is very relevant
to Cumbrians as it is the only GDF currently in operation anywhere in the
world. It has had its problems with canisters containing waste exploding and
roofs collapsing.

Whether you agree with these possible developments or not, this should be an
interesting evening and certainly you can guarantee that more detailed
information will be available than would be published by the Nuclear
industry itself through its mouth piece the “Britain’s Energy Coast”
publication.
