GREENPEACE 06 is organizing a debate this Thursday evening at 7:30 PM at Court Circuit (Vernier Street in Nice) focused on the burial of high-level and long-lived nuclear waste (HAVL).
This event is timely as the debate on the deep geological layer burial center in Bure (Meuse, Lorraine) is again in the news (Macron’s bill on “growth and activity in France”).
The evening will begin with the screening of a Finnish film by Michael Madsen titled “Into Eternity, the Nuclear Hideaway” (2010 documentary awarded at 5 international festivals).
The demonstration is organized around the case of the Onkalo site in Finland, where tunnels are being dug to accommodate nuclear materials before being sealed for 100,000 years.
What does such a timeframe mean? How to inform so many generations about the deadly dangers of such a site? What language to use to be understood for such a long time? The film presents the facts, gives the floor to experts, and stimulates reflection with original and fascinating narrative forms: role-playing proposed to scientists, poetic sequences, philosophical approaches. And we gradually see doubt creeping into the minds of the elites…
A gap into which the anti-nuclear activists of Greenpeace 06 jump without hesitation, including the evening’s presenters: Mario Mulé, oceanographer and senior energy technician, “Nuclear Reference” of the local group of the NGO; Daniel Fimbel, cultural mediator, association host and environmental activist.
