Plutonium Shipment Action Los Alamos to Cadarache
Greenpeace activists in Provence region at péage toll booth handout information on plutonium transport convoy that will travel from La Hague to Cadarache, France. Greenpeace protests against the arrival of a shipment of 140kg of weapons-grade plutonium that has just arrived from Los Alamos (USA) via several locations on a UK-flagged commercial nuclear cargo ship, the Pacific Pintail. Greenpeace believes the shipment unnecessary and highly vulnerable to accidents or deliberate attack.

Nuclear Action in France
Greenpeace protests against the transport of weapons-grade plutonium, from Los Alamos USA, which will travel to Cadarache nuclear facility north of Marseilles. The transport began in France after the arrival of UK-flagged commercial nuclear cargo ship, the Pacific Pintail, from Charleston, USA. Before reaching its final destination it will have travelled more than a thousand kilometres across France, passing by numerous highly populated communities. Greenpeace believes the shipment is unnecessary and highly vulnerable to accidents or deliberate attack.
