Shareholders want nuclear plants closed

[Hannah Bell]

A group of Tohoku Electric Power Company shareholders will submit a motion calling for the closure of the company's nuclear plants.

220 individual stockholders decided on the move ahead of the company's annual shareholders' meeting at the end of next month.

The investors are demanding that the utility state in its agreement with shareholders that it will close its nuclear power plants and end its investment in a reprocessing plant in Aomori Prefecture and similar projects.

The shareholders say the problems at the Tokyo Electric Power Company's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant was a warning that accidents at any nuclear plant can lead to dangers that cannot be contained by any one company.

Trouble with fission energy is its like a caged animal as long as you do things right you have control but let your guard down for a moment or an accident happen and all hell breaks loose. We all know that shit happens and when that shit has ties to nuclear energy it's some serious shit. Sorry for shitting all over the place so early, forgive me :-)
