SUMMARY:Webinar 6/12: Collision Course –  Hanford Cleanup\, Nuclear Energy\, and Data Centers
DESCRIPTION:A 60-minute webinar in which we will explore the myth of nuclear reprocessing\, why adding new nuclear to the Hanford Nuclear Site is a bad idea\, and how the parasitic nature of nuclear energy and data centers are creating a new wave of environmental justice burdens falling squarely on the shoulders Indigenous frontline communities.\nRSVP below. We’ll send you a Zoom link and reminders. *Note: Even if you can’t attend live\, sign up\, and we will send you a video recording after the event. \n \n\nModerator: Lauren Goldberg\, Executive Director Columbia Riverkeeper \nPanelists:  \n\n\n\nKrystal Two Bulls\, Executive Director\, Honor the Earth- Krystal is an Oglala Lakota and Northern Cheyenne grassroots organizer with experience on the frontlines doing campaign development and management around social\, racial and environmental justice. Krystal’s identity as a Native American veteran is central to her organizing and storytelling. At the heart of Krystal’s work is Sovereignty\, LANDBACK\, cross movement relationship building and a deep commitment to her People. In healing from her experience as a veteran\, Krystal has dedicated herself to embodying what she views as the essential quality of a warrior: a commitment to the well-being of not only her People and their relationship to the land\, but that of all Peoples.\nArjun Makhijani\, President\, Institute for Energy and Environmental Research -holds a Ph.D. in engineering (specialization: nuclear fusion) from the University of California at Berkeley. He has produced many studies and articles on nuclear fuel cycle related issues\, including weapons production\, testing\, and nuclear waste\, over the past twenty years. Dr\, Makhijani is the author of Prosperous\, Renewable Maryland\, based on hour-by-hour modeling of the Maryland electricity sector. He also authored Carbon-Free and Nuclear-Free: A Roadmap for U.S. Energy Policy (IEER Press)\, the first analysis of a transition to a U.S. economy based completely on renewable energy\, without any use of fossil fuels or nuclear power. He is the principal author of the first study ever done (completed in 1971) on energy conservation potential in the U.S. economy. He is the principal editor of Nuclear Wastelands and the principal author of Mending the Ozone Hole\, both published by MIT Press.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSimone Anter\, serves as a Senior Staff Attorney & Hanford Program Director for Columbia Riverkeeper\, where she works with the Yakama Nation to support increased public engagement in Hanford Nuclear Site cleanup. Her work also focuses on lending legal support to other Riverkeeper campaigns and Clean Water Act enforcement actions. Simone is a descendant of the Pascua Yaqui and Jicarilla Apache and was an active member of UCLA Law’s Native American Law Student Association (NALSA) chapter. During law school\, Simone served as Editor-in-Chief of the Indigenous Peoples’ Journal of Law\, Culture & Resistance and participated in the National Environmental Law Moot Court competition. Prior to joining Riverkeeper’s team\, Simone was an extern at the Tribal Law and Policy Institute where she contributed to legal publications and policy letters. In addition\, Simone clerked for the Honorable Allie Greenleaf Maldonado in the Tribal Court of the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians in Petoskey\, Michigan.\n\n\n\nBackground\n\nThe Hanford Nuclear Site is the most contaminated site in the Western Hemisphere. Cleanup Matters. Columbia Riverkeeper’s Clean Up Hanford program is one of eternal hope. Radioactive and toxic pollution from Hanford threatens water quality\, salmon\, and people’s health. We work with Tribes and unite people to advocate for cleanup. \nLearn more about the Hanford Nuclear Site here.
