This is a major shift from the 🇩🇪 government.

The science is clear, keeping nuclear plants operational protects the environment & the economy, something environmental and energy experts have been saying for many years.

Last year member of our network including @mark_lynas, @TeaTrmn, @simonfriederich, @amardeo, @Thoughtscapism signed an open letter to the 🇩🇪 to save the at the time 6 operational plants.

On February 24, Russia invaded Ukraine adding another reason to save the remaining 3 reactor. Solidarity with #Ukraine.

We launched our #SwitchOffPutin campaign which showed that keeping the plants open could help Europe cut off Russian Fossil fuel imports.

3/
In May, activists in our network carried out an action at the Grohnde NPP which had been shutdown on NYE 2021 to be reopened.

Here @Joelscotthalkes explains.

#SwitchOffPutin.
4/
@Joelscotthalkes and @Rob_DeSchutter took a trip into Germany to look at the broader issue of German energy policy.

Take a look.
5/
Finally, we hope the German government goes through with keeping the plants open and reverses it's decision to phase out nuclear energy.

Fossil fuels are the real threat to our environment and to a prosperous society. Let's phase them out instead!

🚨BREAKING: The world wants new nuclear!

RePlanet,@ThirdWayEnergy, @ClearPathAction, & @PE_Coalition present the most comprehensive recent multinational survey of public attitudes to nuclear energy.

1/
 replanet.ngo/post/the-world…
In all countries tested, environmental group members are net supporters of advanced nuclear energy. In some countries, they support advanced nuclear energy at a higher rate than nonmembers.

/2 Image
Support for advanced nuclear energy is not partisan. In all but two countries in the report, a majority of the supporters of every major political party also support advanced nuclear energy.

This includes Green parties.

Here are 5 reasons why nuclear energy should be included in the EU Sustainable Finance Taxonomy.

1/🧵
#EUTaxonomy #Taxonomy #nuclear Image
Land use is often overlooked but it is a major contributor to climate change and #biodiversity loss.

Reducing our land use footprint means we can #rewild more land, protecting biodiversity & mitigating climate change. Image
Numerous lifecycle studies have found that #nuclear energy has very low lifecycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

A @UNECE report released last year found it in fact had the lowest average emissions at 5.1gCO2eq/kWh.

Let's talk about the EU Sustainable Finance #Taxonomy, what it is, why it's needed and why #nuclear energy must be included if Europe is to meet its climate goals.

1/ 🧵
The @EU_Commission states that the #taxonomy is necessary, "In order to meet the EU’s climate and energy targets for 2030 and reach the objectives of the European green deal"

2/
They also state that the "#taxonomy is a classification system, establishing a list of environmentally sustainable economic activities. It could play an important role helping the EU scale up sustainable investment and implement the European green deal."
