Randy Hayes & the 9 Planetary Boundaries
Randy Hayes is a great green lifer.Decades ago he founded the Rainforest Action Network, still one of the major players in the save-the-Earth infrastructure. Now he runs Foundation Earth.
Never one to comprise, Randy has gone beyond his fair share of assorted jail stints and come out more dedicated than ever.
"We need to double the world's forests," he told me last week over smoothies in the nation's capital. "It's a major part of solving the climate crisis."

The Don't Frack/Nuke Our Earth Alliance is Born!
Our Earth is being destroyed by fracking and nukes.
These two vampire technologies suck the energy out of our planet while permanently poisoning our air, water, food and livelihoods.The human movements fighting them have been largely separate over the years.
No more.

Climate Riders Roll
Two vans and a big bus pulled up to the First Watch for breakfast this morning in Columbus, Ohio.
They were filled with truly great people, the new Climate Riders, on their way to New York City.
Twenty-four hours on the road each way for a few hours to march against the corporations that are killing our planet.Apr 16, 2014

Solartopia! Winning the Green Energy Revolution
High above the Bowling Green town dump, a green energy revolution is being won. It's being helped along by the legalization of marijuana and its biofueled cousin, industrial hemp.But it's under extreme attack from the billionaire Koch Brothers, utilities like First Energy (FE), and a fossil/nuke industry that threatens our existence on this planet.

So Long, Pete & Toshi Seeger....
http://ecowatch.com/2014/01/28/pete-toshi-seeger-great-to-know-you/
Toshi and Pete Seeger defy description except through the sheer joy and honor it was to know them, however briefly.
Their list of accomplishments will fill many printed pages, which all pale next to the simple core beauty of the lives they led.

Are We on the Brink of Burying Nuke Power Forever?
This may be the moment history has turned definitively against atomic energy.
To be sure: we are still required to fight hard to bury reactor loan guarantees in the United States. There are parallel struggles in China, Indian, England, France and South Korea.
The great fear is that until every single reactor on this planet is shut, none of us is really safe from another radioactive horror show.
About this blog:
NukeFree.org was founded in 2007 by Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Graham Nash and friends to stop a proposed $50 billion loan guarantee package meant to finance new nuclear reactor construction. Joining a successful national grassroots campaign, they established this website and recorded the YouTube video on the home page.
Editor Harvey Wasserman has worked with Bonnie, Jackson, and Graham since the late 1970s and the legendary Musicians United for Safe Energy (MUSE) concerts in Madison Square Garden. This website is meant to inform and inspire those who continue to work for a green-powered Earth, free from the plague of atomic energy. Please feel free to write Harvey with your comments and with URLs for articles you'd like to see appear on these pages.
