Antinuclear movement

The Antinuclear movement is a social and political movement that opposes the use of nuclear energy and nuclear weapons. Advocates argue that nuclear technology poses serious risks, including catastrophic accidents, long-lasting environmental damage, and the potential for nuclear war. The movement gained momentum during the Cold War and continues today, fueled by concerns over safety, environmental issues, and the ethical implications of nuclear proliferation. Activists promote alternative energy sources and advocate for peaceful, sustainable solutions to global energy needs, emphasizing safety and environmental health over reliance on nuclear power.
