We, #AntiAtom #AntiAKW moving people from #Trier and the surrounding area, are committed to the decommissioning of all nuclear plants and an ecological #Energiewende (decentralized and democratic, i.e. in the hands of citizens!). We oppose the French repository project #Bure in Lorraine with the resistance house #BureZoneLibre and for the closure of the #AKW #Cattenom. In addition, we support the switch to #Ökostrom|providers without #Atom or #Kohle|corporations as well as to corresponding banks.
