'Young climate activists in Europe are calling on Greenpeace to drop its
"old-fashioned" stance against nuclear energy.
Activists from five EU countries have launched the Dear Greenpeace campaign,
asking the well-established environmental organization to get on board with
what they see as a necessary tool in the fight against climate change.
"It's a message of desperation from my generation to theirs," Ia Aanstoot, an
18-year-old Swedish climate activist, told
As It Happens host Nil Köksal.
"We are really, really desperate to have them in the struggle against fossil
fuels. And it feels like a betrayal for them to be going up against nuclear
power."
Greenpeace and other critics of nuclear power, meanwhile, say it continues to
be too dangerous, polluting, and cost-prohibitive to be a viable solution to
the climate crisis.'
