Activists from Greenpeace Africa have today placed look-a-like radioactive barrels on Three Anchor Bay beach in Sea Point, Cape Town to highlight the risks and true costs associated with nuclear power.
Through the simulated radioactive pollution, Greenpeace aims to encourage South Africans to ask the key questions that the government has failed to answer thus far.
The South African government is barrelling ahead with its nuclear plans without consultation or transparency. In the recent budget speech, there was no mention of the R300 billion allocated to the nuclear energy plans in the country. The amount, however, has been said to be as much as R1 trillion.
