Wisconsin Nuclear Watchdog Popular Bookmark  International Coalition to Ban Uranium Weapons Popular Bookmark 

Wisconsin's Nuclear WatchDog, a PSR Madison project, provides information about nuclear issues in Wisconsin. Information is available concerning issues such as nuclear power, safety, waste, regulation, economics, and weapons.

The site also functions as a collection and distribution mechanism for nuclear information.

Because of mounting evidence of harmful effects of uranium on human health and the environment, ICBUW calls for an immediate and universal ban on the military use of uranium and other radioactive materials; the cleaning up of all sites contaminated by these weapons along with compensation for all affected populations; a halt to the production, testing, sale, stockpiling, transport and export of these weapons and a decommissioning of all existing stockpiles; immediate medical assessment, treatment and long term monitoring of all those who have been exposed to uranium weaponry, and financial support from organisations and individuals to provide independent medical and environmental investigations of affected countries. Finally, they call on governments to exclude their troops from alliance with any government that uses uranium munitions. They demand from the accountable governments full disclosure of all locations where uranium weapons have been used as well as the amounts of uranium involved.

FAS was formed in 1945 by atomic scientists from the Manhattan Project. Endorsed by dozens of Nobel Laureates in biology, chemistry, economics, medicine and physics as sponsors, the Federation has addressed a broad spectrum of national security issues of the nuclear age in carrying out its mission to promote humanitarian uses of science and technology. While this site is not "anti-nuclear" by nature, it does provide information regarding research and education projects in nuclear arms control and global security; conventional arms transfers; proliferation of weapons of mass destruction; information technology for human health; and government information policy.

GAP is a 28-year-old nonprofit public interest group that promotes government and corporate accountability by advancing occupational free speech, defending whistleblowers, and empowering citizen activists. They pursue this mission through their Nuclear Safety, International Reform, Corporate Accountability, Food & Drug Safety, and Federal Employee/National Security programs.

Radiation and Public Health Project Popular Bookmark  Global Network Against Weapons & Nuclear Power in Space Popular Bookmark 

RPHP is a nonprofit educational and scientific organization, established by scientists and physicians dedicated to understanding the relationships between low-level, nuclear radiation and public health. During the first half century of the Nuclear Age a growing body of medical and scientific evidence has emerged to demonstrate a probable causal link between low-level internal radiation from the ingestion of man-made fission products and world-wide increases in immune deficiency diseases, especially cancer and those affecting the newborn. RPHP has assembled much of the epidemiological evidence documenting these links.

The GNAW-NPS serves as a clearinghouse for space issues and acts as a spark to ignite education and organizing in order to build an international citizens movement. The GN has met each year in order to bring together key activists who are working on, or are interested in, space issues.

The Center was formed to provide reliable information and public education on all aspects of nuclear power to ultimately realize this goal.
