Radioactive death and disease from FUKUSHIMA'S FALLOUT poured over the USS RONALD REAGAN in March, 2011, as 3 melt-downs and 4 explosions ravaged the reactor site.
Crew member Lieutenant Steve Simmons tells us how his health has been destroyed in the three years since the ship sailed in and out of fallout clouds that the reactors' owners said did not exist.
The boat's officers told crew members not to drink or bath in the ship's water while also assuring them it was all "perfectly safe."
Attorneys PAUL GARNER and CHARLES BONNER have filed in federal court on behalf of 79 sailors, two children and potentially up to 70,000 Americans who were exposed. More Americans who were harmed---including a sailor who was pregnant at the time, and whose child has been born with birth defects---await in the wings.
This is the opening testimony in what may become the most devastating legal proceeding of the nuclear age.

Green Power And Wellness Show - Safe Energy in the Southeast - 2/25/14
Tuesday Feb 25, 2014
Tuesday Feb 25, 2014
SAFE ENERGY IN THE SOUTHEAST as the Solartopia Show is honored by long-time activists TOM CLEMENTS and SARA BARZCAK. These Solartopiam stalwarts fill us in on the battles over federal loan guarantees for the overpriced, untested and uninsurable AP-1000 reactors being built in Georgia on your taxpayer dollars, and the two more being rammed down the throats of South Carolina ratepayers. These "vanguard" new nukes are the last vile hope of an industry headed rapidly down the tubes, along with the equally unproved "small modular reactors" which don't really exist but seem to sound good to that caterpillar on the mushroom.
We are initially joined by NICK THABIT who fills us in on the exciting new demonstrations being planned for the March 11 anniversary of the start of the Fukushima disaster. See you in Solartopia!

Bill then tells us about the STUDENT LOAN CRISIS and the gargantuan burden this astonishing bank rip-off has dump on young college graduates and the society as a whole. Bill explains the massive civil disobedience campaign he thinks could turn the tide and free millions of American citizens from the "prison without walls" that is our student debt scam.

Green Power And Wellness - How Much Radiation? - 2/4/14
Tuesday Feb 04, 2014
Tuesday Feb 04, 2014
HOW MUCH RADIATION is coming from Fukushima and our own nukes?
The quick answer: NOBODY KNOWS!!
We talk with SUSAN SHAPIRO, KEVIN KAMPS and GRETEL JOHNSTON about the life & death issue of radiation monitoring. All have met repeatedly with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Environmental Protection Agency. What they tell us is
deeply disturbing: the NRC defers to the EPA, and the EPA defers to the NRC, and in the end, both rely on the industry itself to tell us how much they're dosing us with. In other words: all the assurances we hear about nukes not killing anyone are UTTER NONSENSE. Get the inside lowdown from these three amazing experts and prepare to SHUT THIS INDUSTRY DOWN!!!

Wednesday Jan 29, 2014
We honor the magnificent PETE SEEGER on a show that opens with his SOLARTOPIA SONG. Pete has left us at age 94 (TOSHI departed last year at 91) and we remember them with Solartopia Writer/Singer David Bernz, along with Steve Kent and Susan Shapiro from his stomping grounds in upstate New York, and Greta Johnston, his No Nukes fan in Alabama. Pete's astonishing musical genius and this wonderful couple's enormous heart can never be replaced, but we can enjoy GUANTANAMERA and TURN, TURN, TURN while we remember their work on the Clearwater, at Seabrook and Indian Point, and so much. So long, Seegers. You are with us forever.

FUKUSHIMA and all its horrors are visited by PAUL GUNTER of BEYOND NUCLEAR in a powerful hour of proof and exploration. We visit & evaluate the radioactive impacts on the sailors from the USS RONALD REAGAN who were drenched in fallout as they performed humanitarian services immediately downwind from the exploding reactors. We ask what the rest of us---including those of us here in North America---can expect in terms of fallout on our land and oceans. It's not a pretty picture, but a hurdle we'll all need to face on the route to Solartopia.

DYING NUKE REACTORS ARE MORE EXPENSIVE THAT YOU THINK!! Long-time activists DEB KATZ and SUSAN SHAPIRO discuss the amazing problems and expense involved with shutting down and decommissioning reactors like Vermont Yankee and Indian Point. Getting the fuel rods out of the reactors and into their coffins is far more complicated than the industry wants to let on. And that's just the start of it!!
