Australian Government opened up uranium sales to India ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Today I'm sad to report that the Australian Government has opened up uranium sales to India. This move has ignored senior advice - including from Australian bureaucrats and pro nuclear advocates who warned that this deal is dangerous. This deal has been described as the "biggest non-proliferation issue of our time" as India continues to test weapons capable missiles, and has clear intentions of using international uranium to free up domestic supplies for weapons. India's own Auditor General has been hugely critical of India's safety at nuclear facilities, nuclear is never safe but this is a clear warning! We've not been able to stop the trade deal but we can and must stop any uranium mines from opening and fuelling nuclear threats in India and elsewhere. Meanwhile in the Goldfields: There are now two uranium mine proposals open for public comment - Yeelirrie and the Wiluna extension. There's an online action against the Yeelirrie uranium mine - submissions close 14th December - so please sign and share! http://ccwa.good.do/yeelirrie/standwithyeelirrietraditionalownerssubmissiontotheepa ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- XX.
