The earth needs a RENEWABLE energy future, it doesn't need us to continue the cycle of harm caused by our radioactive past. Stand with NIRS for a CLEAN, green, and safe energy future.

Every polluting industry is in line for a handout - but we can’t get to zero in time without taking the most direct path.

No garbage burning, CCS, nuclear plants or other wastes of time & money.

The nuclear industry always exploits and harms Indigenous communities.

Dr. Tommy Rock explains that the Navajo Nation contains over 500 abandoned uranium mines, which leads to contaminated water.

[AGREE New York @agreenewyork]

Can we really meet NY’s energy & climate needs w/ renewable energy?

✅Absolutely!

Renewables & efficiency ramped up so fast since NYS struck agreement to close Indian Point nuclear plant that reliance on fossil fuel-fired electricity actually fell 10% btw 2016 & 2020...

[Frack Action @FrackAction]

Great oped in the Times Union today from Jessica Azulay, Executive Director of the Alliance for a Green Economy.

Yes, renewables can supply New York's energy needs.

As @agreenewyork's Jessica Azulay points out in today's @timesunion: We don’t need any new gas plants to meet our energy needs now that Indian Point has shut down. https://t.co/eRrFEGRR4U

[AGREE New York @agreenewyork]

The choice between nuclear and gas is a false choice.

.@ssteingraber1 breaks down the public health field’s long history of fighting against false choices.

It’s the same playbook, from coal to DDT to tobacco:

"Indian Point’s operation posed risks to millions of New Yorkers — risks which will be mitigated now it’s shutting down and getting replaced not with fracked gas, but with renewable energy and energy efficiency." — @MarkRuffalo and @ReneeVogelsang 🔆 https://t.co/sSnVrJP6Yd

[Riverkeeper @riverkeeper]

"Closing #IndianPoint and other obsolete nuclear plants will usher in New York’s clean energy future." – @MarkRuffalo and @ReneeVogelsang in @NYDailyNews op-ed https://t.co/Shk1sBzdyN

[Renee Vogelsang @ReneeVogelsang]

Co-authored this Opinion piece in the Daily News with my climate comrade @MarkRuffalo on the transition to 100% renewables in NY.

"Gas was always a false climate solution and a “bridge fuel” to nowhere. And so is nuclear.”

On 4/30, the day #IndianPoint's reactor 3 shuts down for the last time, join us, regional activists and lawmakers as we discuss why this dangerous plant needed to be closed and #NY's clean, safe energy future without it. https://t.co/oyQ67BS6iy @RepMondaire @SloopClearwater

Indian Point shuts down today. A blog from our friends at @NRDC
about the clean energy future we are working toward.

"New York is better positioned today than ever to achieve its ambitious climate and clean energy goals without this risky plant."

Indian Point nuclear plant is closing this week.

Some people are relieved and continue to work for a nuclear-free, carbon-free energy future in NY.

Others are fear mongering and spreading misinformation.

Here’s what’s going on... 👇

[Beyond Indian Point @Beyond_IP]

"Solar and wind energy have the potential to meet global electricity demand 100 times over.." according to a report by a U.K. think tank.

Great blog from our friends at @riverkeeper. “If you’re in the market for safe, sustainable energy in New York, the Indian Point nuclear plant just isn’t for you.” https://t.co/fhRi6VoG3t

[AGREE New York @agreenewyork]

With Renewables and Efficiency Fast Replacing Indian Point, There’s No Need for Fossil Fuel Generation

[Beyond Indian Point @Beyond_IP]

Dr. Tommy Rock, Dr. Sandra Steingraber and Dr. Patricia DeMarco lay out the health impacts and dangers of uranium mining, fracked gas and nuclear power and make the case for 100% renewables in this powerful forum.

@ssteingraber1 Thank you Dr. Steingraber! It’s was an honor to have you.

[Dr. Sandra Steingraber 🏳️‍🌈 @ssteingraber1]

You guys this is a fantastic grassroots campaign led by some of the smartest, most skillful organizers I have ever worked with. If you are looking for a portal into renewable energy activism that closes the door on both natural gas and nukes, look no further.
