We started Mothers for Nuclear because we feel an obligation to speak out, and start a conversation.
Mothers for Nuclear is a grassroots volunteer environmental organization started by two environmentalist mothers, Heather Hoff and Kristin Zaitz, on Earth Day, 2016.
Mothers are powerful. We will do anything to protect our children. We need that level of commitment if we are going to protect our children's health, the environment and the climate. Mothers should be the biggest advocates for nuclear. We believe they will be, once they learn the truth.
If you support nuclear power, share your story. If you don't, but are open-minded, ask us questions. We work at a nuclear power plant and know almost everything there is to know about what it is and how it runs. You can ask questions and we'll do our best to answer them on our website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Medium.
We hope to help people see nuclear for what it is, a vitally important environmental technology, and overcome the fears they have that are mostly based on misinformation. Once that happens, policies will change, nuclear plants will stay open, and new nuclear plants can be built. We would like to see all fossil fuel plants replaced by clean sources of energy including solar, wind and nuclear power as quickly as possible.
