Taiwan’s TPCo (TaiPower co) has been attempting to build a 4th nuclear facility in Taiwan for nearly two decades. The battle over nuclear power in Taiwan has been a national issue for nearly 20 years and has all but been censored off the face of the earth by the international press.

In other words, the fight over nuclear development in Taiwan could very well be a huge victory for the global anti-nuclear community. Starting with the battle to stop TaiPower from building a high level waste site on Orchid Island the country’s anti-nuclear movement has faced one of the … Continue reading
