A song to celebrate Indian Point Unit 2's closure on April 30th

Shared by our friend and colleague Nancy Vann, who lives just over a mile away from the Indian Point nuclear power plant. The song is sung to the melody of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic":

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the closing of the plant
We said that they should close it but the owners said "we can't"
We loosed our fact based reasons and after many seasons,
The plant is closing down!

Indian Point 2's closure means no more radioactive waste will be generated. It also means a reactor core meltdown can't occur there, once the core is defueled.

Glory, Glory, Hallelujah, indeed!
