Several jurisdictions are contemplating nuclear revival to meet current energy demands. Great Lakes United points this discourse to the legacy of radioactive waste in storage facilities along the shores of the Great Lakes and to the enrichment and processing facilities that provide feedstock to a radioactive future. Nuclear fuel is mined in your neighbor 's backyard and the waste is stored in yours. It’s not cheap. It’s not safe. It shouldn't be our future.

Great Lakes United is building a coalition of community groups from across the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River region. The Nuclear-Free Green Energy Task Force is working group of activists across the region working to promote alternatives to nuclear energy.
