CANC is a community campaign which aims to raise
awareness about, and build opposition to, the nuclear industry in
Australia. It will be converging on Canberra with the message that we don't want a nuclear future! We're cycling from Rockhampton
to Canberra and from Port Augusta to Canberra from July to September to
make Australia nuclear free.
Its aims are focussed on:
- Raising awareness about what the nuclear cycle means
- Rallying opposition to the production of nuclear power in Australia
- Promote truly renewable power generation
- Advocating for local power generation and engage local communities in becoming involved in their power generation.
- Meeting with local aboriginal communities and environmental groups and listen to their experiences and thought of life with the nuclear cycle.
