 Wellness Hour - 12.09.14 - PRN.fm\n\nalso: Linda Seeley with San Luis

 "PG&E Ratepayer Revolt to Shut Diablo Now!"\n \nStarts promptly at 6! 
 Information, discussion & community! Time will be allocated for 
 announcements. Donations welcome, no one turned away.  Occupy Forum is an 
 opportunity for open and respectful dialogue on all sides of these 
 critically important issues! \n\nYou're going to want to be a part of this 
 historic campaign and convergence to shut Diablo!\n\nThe NRC's chief 
 resident inspector at Diablo, Dr. Michael Peck, recommended LAST YEAR to 
 shut the plant because critical backup safety systems won't work in the 
 event of an earthquake. \n\nCalifornia’s Diablo Canyon nuclear reactors 
 are surrounded by earthquake faults they were never designed to withstand. 
 They are riddled with design flaws and can’t meet basic fire safety 
 standards. They dump huge quantities of hot water into the ocean in 
 defiance of state water quality standards, killing billions of sea 
 creatures.\nThey continue to pile up huge quantities of deadly radioactive 
 wastes that have no place to go. And that’s just the start of 
 it.\nFortunately, a powerful grassroots movement is rising up in California 
 to shut these reactors and make the state nuke-free. More demonstrators 
 have been arrested at Diablo Canyon than any other nuke site in the U.S. 
 Green Power activists recently won a landmark victory by shutting the two 
 nukes at San Onofre, between Los Angeles and San Diego, leaving just the 
 ones at Diablo to plague the state.\n\nThis gathering is meant to inform, 
 energize, plan and commit us all to winning another great victory over the 
 nuclear power industry, and to finally bring California to Solartopia, a 
 green-powered state where we can live in harmony and safety with our 
 nuke-free Mother Earth. Join us at this rare and wonderful 
 gathering...bring your best intentions and let's figure out how to win this 
 one NOW. \n\nLinda Seeley\nLinda Seeley is Vice-President and Spokesperson 
 for San Luis Obispo Mothers for Peace, the legal intervenor in all matters 
 pertaining to the safety and licensing of Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant 
 in Avila Beach, CA.  She is an advanced facilitator of Joanna Macy’s Work 
 that Reconnects, group practices to guide us through the current world 
 crisis without going crazy. She also serves on the Executive Committee of 
 the Santa Lucia Sierra Club and is a Core Team member of the national 
 Sierra Club Nuclear Free Campaign. She has lived in San Luis Obispo for 32 
 years, where she delivered over a thousand babies during her career as a 
 nurse-midwife. Her passion for the future generations is the guiding 
 principle in her work to shut down Diablo Canyon.\n\nCodepink's Cynthia
