Martina Kruger at Studsvik Nuclear Facility

Greenpeace campaigner, Martina Kruger, is in a rigid inflatable boat outside the Studsvik nuclear facility. The Greenpeace activists here are preparing for the arrival of the Sellafield Ltds / PNTLs ship, the Atlantic Osprey.
The Atlantic Ospreys mission is to transport 4.8 tons of radio active waste, including 1.2kg of extremely toxic super weapons grade plutonium, to Sellafield fuel reprocessing plant in the United Kingdom. Since all of the materials are not going to be returned to Sweden after reprocessing, the transport is in clear violation of Swedish law. Sweden is essentially dumping nuclear waste in England.

Nuclear Action against Radioactive Waste Dumped at Sellafield

Greenpeace activists campaign at Studsvik in Sweden and Sellafield in the United Kingdom, against the transportation of nuclear waste to Sellafield fuel reprocessing plant. A cargo vessel named the Atlantic Osprey is to transport 4.8 tons of radio active waste, including 1.2 kg extremely toxic super weapons grade plutonium, to Sellafield. Since all of the materials are not going to be returned to Sweden after reprocessing, the transport is in clear violation of Swedish law. Sweden is essentially dumping nuclear waste in England.
