Indian Point is leaking radioactive waste into the Hudson River, is one of the most vulnerable terrorist targets, and has 20 million people without a workable evacuation plan living in its shadows. We can replace the energy, not the lives.

Pete Seeger, lived in Nyack as young boy and has had a long history of activism on a variety of social change, peace, and environmental issues. He has been very outspoken on the issue of nuclear power and the Indian Point Nuclear power plant of Hudson, in particular. He is a true American folk hero and an inspiration to all those who support peace and justice.
