Until the end of 2011, the 2nd International Uranium Film Festival received more than 50 documentaries, shorts and features from all continents that content nuclear issues - from uranium mining to atomic bomb tests, from Chernobyl to Fukushima. The festival received films from famous and directors like Peter Greenaway as well as productions from newcomers like the Italian filmmaker Riccardo Migliore, who is living and filming in the Brazilian state Paraiba.

Japan declares a fake "cold shutdown" saying the Fukushima accident is "over". Arnie Gundersen interview plus world reaction. Then: did Fukushima radiation kill 14,000 Americans? Interview with study co-author Janette Sherman, plus comments from Joseph Mangano. Added clip from Japan-German speaker Kazuhiko Kobayash on the secret of Japanese power.

In the face of all that presently ails America--stagnant economy, staggering income disparity, high chronic unemployment, mass demonstrations coast to coast--a remedy is desperately needed. For a ruling elite concerned only with maintaining power, only one solution can address these concerns and those that are forthcoming. Yep. It’s time for another war.

LONDON: Campaigners have dumped 2.3 tonnes of imitation ‘depleted uranium (DU) dust’ on the MoD’s doorstep to remind them of their responsibility for contaminating areas of Iraq and Kuwait, during the 1991 and 2003 conflicts.

A day of wonderful workshops, events and direct action.

Here's one for ya

The dudes from Rolls Royce are building even more funky shit up at the 'death park' in Rotherham. If it isnt plain as day that businesses at the AMP dealing in nuclear, aerospace, military, robotics, drones and death are working together for some sinister shit then you might as well go back to sleep! NO NUCLEAR NO WAY!

a banner was dropped on the busy parkway next to the nuclear research centre in rotherham yesterday in solidarity with the hinkley blockade

Accident at nuclear plant southern France near Avignon&the city of Nimes,50 miles north west of Marseilles&100miles NW of Cannes, westerly wind at this time of year will likely be taking any pollution into the mainland. Nuclear monitoring groups in the region report test levels of radiation 10 times above normal.

EDF Energy (the UK subsidiary of Electricite de France) has been granted permission by West Somerset District Council to trash over 400 of acres of beautiful greenfield coastal land at Hinkley Point, which sits within the Bridgwater Bay National Nature Reserve, overlooking the Severn Estuary RAMSAR site.

EDF plans to uproot all the trees and vegetation, which provide important habitats for birds, bats, mammals and other precious flora and fauna. It also plans to dig up more soil and rock than was done for the preparation of the London 2012 Olympic site. And all of this before EDF has even submitted an application to the Infrastructure Planning Commission for its planned new nu-killer power station. But worry ye not, because EDF says that if it doesn't get permission to build its new nu-killer reactor (or if it changes its mind for economic or other reasons), then it will restore the land to its former glory.

Seventy-six years ago today the city of Hiroshima was ravaged by a US nuclear bomb. Within days Nagasaki too had been torn apart by this terrifying new weapon of mass destruction.

Did you know that the nuclear fallout in Fallujah is worse than in Hiroshima or Nagasaki? Brian Haw did. We start with a few words from the recently departed one man political protest. Then Chris Busby speaks on the dangers of radiation that authorities and the media conspire to cover up, and we hear from Jeff Donn about the real risks and radiation releases in US nuclear power stations. Our title feature, in hour 2, is a radio adaptation of the sombre and philosophical film, Into Eternity, about the Finnish efforts to build the world's first long term nuclear storage facility.

local residents marked the 25th anniversary of chernobyl with a message to local town council and nuclear research centre

The Stop Nuclear Power Network  http://stopnuclearpoweruk.net staged a four-day anti-nuclear camp on the beach beside Sizewell nuclear power station in Suffolk, eastern England from 22-25 April 2011. Campers marked the 25th anniversary of Chernobyl, the world's worst ever nuclear accident, on 26 April 1986, and sent out a clear message: 'No' to nuclear greenwash, 'Yes' to sustainable alternatives.
