Peter Dutton's Liberal-National party has proposed building a nuclear power station in the Latrobe Valley in Gippsland.
Nuclear power is not a viable form of energy: nuclear is the most expensive form of energy, would take much too long to build, and presents massive risks to communities.
It's a slap in the face to regional communities this is being proposed without any consideration of the community concerns and aspirations.
Join Voices of the Valley, Friends of the Earth, and local community members for a snap community photo outside the office of Nationals MP Darren Chester to say no to nuclear in Gippsland.
It's crucial to understand our actions today will have a lasting impact on future generations. As we transition our energy system, we must work towards creating sustainable communities, looking after landscapes, and ensuring a better quality of life for those who will inherit this planet for centuries to come.
This community action will take place on the lands of the Gunaikurnai People, whose Sovereignty has never been ceded.
