 American anti–nuclear activists

American anti-nuclear activists are individuals and groups in the United States who oppose the development and use of nuclear energy and nuclear weapons. Their activism is often motivated by concerns regarding the safety of nuclear power plants, environmental consequences, the risks of nuclear accidents, and the potential for nuclear weapons proliferation. The movement gained significant prominence during the Cold War, especially after incidents like the Three Mile Island accident in 1979 and later the Chernobyl disaster in 1986.
