Fast email to your MPs against nuclear power plant lifetime extension

As now most likely have noticed, is planning the black-yellow government, the running times to extend existing nuclear power plants over the 2002 Atomkonsenz completed and the related renovation of the Atomic Energy Act also.

We hear again and again, the majority of the German population was against nuclear power and would reject such a life extension-high time to inform your MP! Thanks to this Campact links that's easy-just name and address in the form Campact then determines in step 2, your constituencies and therefore your members. You can apply the e-mail template view, possibly change as they wish and send it. Then you will receive an email from Campact first, and if, within the your confirmation link clicking the mail is actually sent to your MPs. You will get then a copy of the email to the members

In the event that there are in your constituency, not representatives of CDU or FDP, it is also a normal Campact petition against nuclear. Again, you will receive a confirmation email, first, with your participation in the petition will be effective.

Campact is an organization that is democratic means peaceful campaigns on political issues on their feet. We have these issues, the economy package, party funding, climate and planned by the black-yellow government lifetime extension of nuclear power plants. represents

is my personal opinion that nuclear power

1. is expensive (the federal government and therefore the taxpayer will pay billions of subsidies to the nuclear industry),
2. an uncontrollable risk to the environment (even than it was then 6 years old I can remember Chernobyl still remember very well and since there are with increasing age more and more incidents in German nuclear power plants),
3. it does not cover vehicle insurance (in case of SuperGAUs is no third party insurance of the operator who then comes to the billions of losses?)
4. already the power grid blocked (already exists for over-production renewable energy that are currently in the due to nuclear and coal power busy network can not be fed and so ineffective fizzles),
5. is also a source of worry that the issue is settled is still not on the disposal of old fuel rods even after all these decades (and how you came to the location decision Gorleben, is also highly dubious experts recommended at that time other sites, Gorleben was not even on the shortlist),
6. poses a security risk (in the minority German nuclear power plants would withstand a terrorist attack à la September 11 - and I was a terrorist and would even really want to kick up dust, then I would give me such a nuclear power plant ) Search for, and
7. is not needed at all on top of that (see opinion of the Advisory Council on the Environment of the Federal Government ).

I mean two deputies had already written some time ago via Campact and by both (or their agents) long prefabricated opinions get back to why they are for the period of extension. As their main argument has been ruled out clearly in the meantime by the Environmental Council, I now have the Campact text was amended as follows:

already once I contacted you by email if you would vote for or against longer terms. The answer of your employees are somewhat long, but unfortunately was finally "yes."

has now, however, even the Advisory Council on the Environment of the Federal Government in Opinion No. 15 expressed unambiguous that a term extension is unnecessary. So my new question to you as a member of my constituents: Are you still, against the opinion of recognized experts doubt, and against the will of the majority of German population-vote in the Bundestag for a term extension? With interest I look forward to your reply.

Sincerely,

Let's see what reaction I get to that.

I find this action absolutely Campact exemplary: it is well thought out and makes it easy every citizen to contact the relevant officials in contact. I am of the opinion that the main path leads inevitably to improvements over the government and every voter has power over the government. Kudos for Campact that sent dsehr demonstrates how to use democracy.
