After today, one more chance to join us for a webinar on storage of used nuclear fuel, Tues 10/28 7pm EST. People ask “What about the waste?!” as more of a statement and a way to protest nuclear. Well, let’s figure it out. Come join us! ⚛️🩷💪🏼 https://bsky.app/profile/mothersfornuclear.bsky.social/post/3m3rv3yz2gc2o [contains quote post or other embedded content]25 Oct 2025 17:39 +0000at://did:plc:cdllb3y2il6d3ozu63hpby4m/app.bsky.feed.post/3m3zwmdw6mc2lhttps://bsky.app/profile/heather-mom4nuk.bsky.social/post/3lrci4hazac2cThese actions are importantly for our clean energy future.
