The next few weeks will spell the difference between a nuclear disaster and a clean renewable energy future for Filipinos.
The pushers of nuclear energy in congress want to vote on moving forward with the revival of the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP) before congress closes in the first week of June, with the foolish argument that the outdated and unsafe facility can address both climate change and energy security.
The truth is you can't solve one problem by creating another. If you believe that Nuclear Power is more of a hazard, please sign the petition at

Nuclear power is not the solution. The key to energy security and climate change is Renewable Energy and energy efficiency. And the best thing about it is: we already have a renewable energy law - so we don't need to revive outdated technology like the BNPP!
Let us think of renewable solutions instead of reviving a 30-year old, decommissioned plant.http://www.greenpeace.org/seasia/en/no-nukes/
