Mission
Fairewinds Energy Education shines a spotlight on the inequities and Environmental Justice Issues facing communities worldwide. Community-volunteer citizen-scientists and our scientific colleagues conduct research, analyze radioactively-contaminated areas, and present truthful data that is transparent and free to all. For example, did you know that nanoparticles and microparticles of radiation leak from uranium mines, nuclear fuel fabrication facilities, waste dumps, weapons sites, old test sites for atomic bombs and nuclear weapons, and operating atomic power reactors and contaminate communities worldwide? Moreover, in 2022, the world learned firsthand via the war in Ukraine that fragile nuclear power plants are as great a risk as nuclear weapons.
