Since al Qaeda terrorists commandeered two jumbo jets into the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, New York City has been on high alert. On any given day, residents and tourists alike see armed military personnel patrolling subway stations, notable landmarks and the City's financial district. While visitors to New York City may feel as if they've entered a war zone, the solemn military personnel make many who call New York home feel at least a bit safer since the towers fell.

After the partial meltdown of a nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania on March 28, 1979, concerned citizens from across the United States banded together to stop nuclear power in its tracks. Perhaps the most effective anti-nuclear gathering in U.S. history was the five-day No Nukes concert series held in New York City in September 1979. On the last day, 250,000 people rallied in Lower Manhattan - just across from the World Trade Center - to protest nuclear power. This massive battle cry was heard in Washington, DC. Plans to build new U.S. nuclear power plants were put on hold. And after the 1986 Chernobyl catastrophe in Ukraine, plans for new U.S. nuclear plants were abandoned.

Women and the Environment: The Earth is Ours, Too!

  Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant in Fishy Controversy
January 16, 2007
WCBS Channel 2 Television News

The latest controversy involving the Indian Point nuclear power plant focuses on fish.  Preliminary testing showed detectable levels of strontium-90, a radioactive isotope, in a handful of fish pulled from the Hudson River, the Journal News reported on Tuesday.  The plant, which sits on the banks of the Hudson, has been leaking strontium-90 from a pool where it stores spent fuel rods.  The group leading a campaign to shut down Indian Point believes there's a connection, and a cause for concern.  "It's far, far too early to be alarmist," said Lisa Rainwater, Indian Point Campaign director for Riverkeeper. "But what we're looking at now, if it's in the fish, that means it's also been contaminating the soil, the sediment, the plankton."
