INSANE BAILOUTS FOR DEAD NUKES come to the anti-Solar war chest in the form of $7.6 billion in NY, $2.3 billion in IL, $5+ billion in Ohio and much more.
These bailouts are scams for utilities owning nukes that should be shut down immediately. The money is tied to nothing except the personal profits of the mega-rich executives and stockholders perpetrating this fraud.
Two great safe energy stalwarts come to Solartopia to dissect this disaster. KARL GROSSMAN, legendary author, professor, journalist and activist, tells us how green forces won on Long Island and how such victories can be duplicated today. KEVIN KAMPS of BEYOND NUCLEAR fills us in on the situation in Illinois, Ohio, Michigan and other states where greedy nuke-based utilities are fleecing the public while keeping increasingly dangerous nukes on the brink of Chernobyl roulette.
Thankfully, a grassroots movement may defeat the bailout in Ohio, and court cases are proceeding against the one in New York. To get the inside scoop on perhaps the most critical battle of our lifetime, in which future Fukushimas are prevented or subsidized, be sure to listen in to these two great expert/activists.
