The California Energy Commission (CEC) will be holding hearings on July 26th concerning the state’s long term power needs. Last spring the CEC sent out data requests to both Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E) and Southern California Edison (SCE) concerning safety related issues at their nuclear facilities. The CEC list of questions was extensive. Both PG&E and SCE have replied to CEC’s data request and those documents were publicly made available for review on July 14th. It should be noted that PG&E did not respond to a single question, but instead submitted 36 seismic reports several hundred pages long.

Activists are suspicious of “studying the problem” that puts off action in favor of endless talk (or publishing). Culture Change went beyond studying the problem soon after its founding in 1988: action and advocacy must get to the root of the crises to assure a livable future. Also, information overload and a diet of bad news kills much activism. So it’s hard to find reading material to strongly recommend. But the new book Nuclear Roulette: The Case Against the “Nuclear Renaissance” is must-have if one is fighting nukes today.
By a anonymous contributor 23 June 2011 Following the Japanese earthquake and tsunami disaster of March 11, the meltdown of the nuclear reactor in Fukushima continues to alarm people all around the world. The world witnessed the events virtually live … Continue reading

A promised hearing on emergency planning never took place.
This is a review of those hearings.

Since the Fukushima accident we have seen a stream of experts on radiation telling us not to worry, that the doses are too low, that the accident is nothing like Chernobyl and so forth. They appear on television and we read their articles in the newspapers and online. Fortunately the majority of the public don’t believe them. I myself have

The Zorro myth is based on Joaquin Murrieta who came to California during the gold rush. Contrary to the Disney TV series or movies, Joaquin’s story was very different. His gang didn’t focus on the plight of Mission Indians or the Spanish but on White californians. He was called a bandit and murderer, for which he was hunted down and supposedly killed.
John Fremont is the “Father” of California. He killed hundreds of First nation people as well as the twin sons of the popular mayor of SF as well as N. California’s largest land owner, with the goal of getting control of the biggest mercury mine in the western hemisphere. He was the country’s first republican candidate for president(1856), the states first senator as well as a governor, but removed and then convicted of treason but a federal court martial, to be pardoned the next day by President Polk. The story of John Fremont is the story of the southern movement of Manifest Destiny, or the destruction of first people lands.
