Japan-Germany green dialogue at Busboys & Poets, DC

BEYOND NUCLEAR PRESENTS: JAPANESE FUKUSHIMA ACTIVISTS AND LEADING GERMAN GREEN PARTY OFFICIAL TO SPEAK AT BUSBOYS & POETS! MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 8:30PM.

How were families affected by the multiple Fukushima nuclear reactor disasters? Why weren’t children properly evacuated? How can Japan follow Germany and replace nuclear energy with renewables? And could a Fukushima meltdown happen in the US?

A  delegation of Japanese farming families and anti-nuclear activists will be joined by Robert Habeck, Chairman of the Green Party in the state of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany for an evening event at Busboys & Poets in Washington, DC. Hear what the US press still isn’t telling us about the reality on the ground around the Fukushima nuclear reactors; how we can help; how Germany will be nuclear-free by 2022 and 80%-100% renewable by 2050; and how the US is running the same risks with 23 identical reactors as those that melted down at Fukushima as well as at 81 others. Read our flier for more details. 

The event is co-sponsored by: Beyond Nuclear and the Heinrich Böll Foundation in Washington, DC.
