July 14, Bastille Day, 8 pm
Hiro Ballroom, 88 9th Ave. (at 16th St.) New York City.
Founded in 2006, Rock The Reactors has been waging a relentless battle to shut down the Indian Point nuclear power plant 35 miles North of Manhattan on the Hudson River.
Now it’s time to sum it all up, turn up the volume, all get together, thinkers, philosophers, actors, musicians, scientists, politicians, models, painters, lawyers, carpenters, farmers, electricians, architects, designers, stockbrokers, all those of us who make up what has become green New York, to tell the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, that enough is enough !
Let’s tell the NRC we won’t stand for this old and dangerous power plant operating so close to so many people any longer, that we don’t need it, that we now have LED technology to dramatically reduce electrical consumption all over the state !
The Indian Point nuclear power plant is on its last stretch to receive an extended new license that would enable it to keep running for another 20, maybe 40 years... tempting fate, while cancer rates, leaks, close calls and cold sweats perpetuate, having sunk the local population into a sad state of perpetual complacency. Wake up, it’s the 21st Century, there’s better ways to make a mere 2000 megawatts than threaten 20 million people with annihilation !!!
Join us on Bastille Day, July 14 in New York, to put the final stake into Indian Point’s heart, finish what Musicians United For Safe Energy started back in 1979 with the No Nukes concert series.
We will commemorate Madame Curie who died on the 4th of July 1934 from aplastic anemia contracted from exposure to radiation. Françoise Giroud, ELLE magazine’s founding editor, wrote Marie Curie : A Life, emphasizing her role as a feminist.
Come celebrate LEDs with the authors of Green Lighting, McGraw-Hill’s new book in their Green Guru Guide series.
Bastille Day at the Hiro Ballroom will host the East Coast launch of the 2010 Project Green Search modeling competition, in partnership with the Greenloop, Greendrinks, GreenMUA and Global Green USA.
