Coles No To Nuclear: Why Nuclear Power Destroys Lives, Derails Climate Progress and Provokes War at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

There is no silver bullet for the climate crisis—but that hasn't stopped people searching. Seizing its chance, the nuclear power industry wants us to believe that theirs is the only technical fix for our deliverance. Powerful rhetoric easily sways the public, politicians, and the media.
This fact should come as no surprise. After all, the pro-nuclear PR campaign is richly funded and has an army of lobbyists sowing myths while the industry reaps the rewards of taxpayer-funded subsidies.
No To Nuclear calls the industry's bluff. Blasting aside its claims to be safe and green, Linda Pentz Gunter makes the irresistible case that nuclear power is too slow, too expensive, too dangerous, and too integrally connected to the nuclear weapons complex to serve as a rational energy choice.
The book also delves into the lives of Indigenous peoples and communities of color, who have been harmed the most by the nuclear sector, and questions whether the way we devalue nature and the environment is costing us the chance of a genuinely just energy transition.
