Anti-Nuclear Movement

The Anti-Nuclear Movement opposes the use of nuclear energy and weapons due to safety, environmental, and ethical concerns. Critics highlight risks of nuclear accidents, radioactive waste disposal, and the proliferation of nuclear weapons. The movement advocates for renewable energy sources and emphasizes the potential hazards associated with nuclear technology. It gained momentum in the 20th century, especially after incidents like Chernobyl and Fukushima, fostering public awareness and policy changes aimed at reducing reliance on nuclear power and promoting safer, sustainable energy alternatives.
