The consequence of humanity's dependence on fossil fuels means that
life on earth is under threat - drought, floods and famine could hit
billions. At the same time the UK government is keen for the
construction of a new generation of nuclear power stations and
climate change is the moral card being played. Yet how safe is
nuclear energy production? What potential does it really hold in
meeting the climate challenge, and what scope is there for
alternatives? Join us for an informative and lively discussion on
this urgent issue facing our communities. As always, there will also
be a chance to hear about past and upcoming environmental activities
LINE is involved with, and also how you can contribute to the UK
nuclear debate.
