Our hard work since 2016 has paid off. California’s legislature voted to save Diablo Canyon nuclear plant this week.

In the YouTube interview above, I discuss with Dr. Chris Keefer how we built a pro-social, pro-human, pro-nuclear movement, which rejected sectarianism and elitism, to save Diablo Canyon, and other nuclear plants around the world. I hope you’ll tune in.

Happy Labor Day!

I had many dark & lonely moments advocating for nuclear power over the last decade. I was falsely accused of many things. Through it all, I kept the faith. I knew people would one day see the light. It took a global energy crisis, but finally they do.
npr.orgWhy even environmentalists are supporting nuclear power todayEnvironmentalists advocating for nuclear power have led a push to extend the operating life of Diablo Canyon, California’s last nuclear power plant. Japan and Germany consider similar extensions.
