Green River Rising: Turning Back the Nuclear Threat

HEAL Utah is pleased to announce that University of Utah professor Dan McCool will be our 2012 Fall Party Keynote Speaker.

Professor Dan McCool, the author of the new book
River Republic: The Fall and Rise of America's Rivers, will speak about the power of committed and feisty grassroots groups to protect the West’s precious rivers. Utah’s most threatened river, the Green River, presents a dramatic and tense tale of energy development, water scarcity, a false nuclear renaissance and the scrappy organizations and committed volunteers working to preserve it.

HEAL's Christopher Thomas will also discuss the risks the Green River reactors pose to Utah's iconic canyon country, and the latest in HEAL's efforts to stop them.

All proceeds support HEAL Utah and our work to protect our public health and environment from nuclear threats.
