Beyond Nuclear's Kevin Kamps presented a powerpoint on the many risks of high-level radioactive waste storage on the shorelines of the Great Lakes at an international (U.S.-Canadian) roundtable at Henry Ford Community College in Dearborn, Michigan. The May 14th event was entitled "Nuclear Threats to the Great Lakes, and the Transition to Safe, Clean Energy," and was sponsored by the college's renewable energy department, as well as the Sierra Club Michigan Chapter and Citizens for Alternatives to Chemical Contamination.
