Community
Concern is a group formed in 1998. It represents communities living
in and around Cardiff, the capital city of Wales, UK.
Cardiff
has been called, 'Tritium City' by Friends of the Earth because
of the high levels of tritium and other radioactive isotopes discharged
into the environment by Nycomed Amersham (NA) plc Cardiff site.
This nuclear site is in North Cardiff, a highly populated city.
Apart from discharging to the air and sewers, NA have a radioactive
store on the flood plains of the river Taff, which runs through
Cardiff to the Severn Estuary. Tritium, Carbon 14 and Iodine 125
are the three most common nuclides discharged from the Cardiff site

WasteLink
is a categorized directory of world wide web sites on the internet
dealing with radioactive waste, nuclear power and environmental issues.
The site includes international content of government, commercial,
industry, academic, research and educational sites, as well as "grassroots"
and private citizens sites.
WasteLink is a specialized interent site directory aimed at professionals,
legislators, regulators, academics and members of the general public
with an interest in waste management and environmental issues. The
searchable directory currently includes links to more than 5000 sites,
and is updated frequently.

N-Base Information Service
The
N-Base Information Service provides a database of newspaper references
and publishes weekly Briefings on the UK civil nuclear industry, reprocessing
and plutonium production at Sellafield and Dounreay, nuclear transports,
waste, pollution and other environmental and health issues. Our public
Web pages are heavy on information - short on graphics. There is a
restricted version of the database, sample Briefings, latest news,
features, and extensive links pages.

Cricklewood Against Nuclear Transports (CANT)
BNFL
announced early 1998 that it plans to move its marshalling yard from
Willesden Junction just up the road to Cricklewood. But instead of
telling local residents, it made the announcement in the Sellafield
newsletter. It also managed to write to the wrong Borough Council
and the wrong MP. Within days Cricklewood residents had set up Cricklewood
Against Nuclear Trains (Can't) which has since become a high profile
campaign with its own website.

Nuclear Free Local Authorities
Nuclear
Free Local Authorities began in Manchester with a declaration ofthe
City Council on 5 November 1980 to work to eliminate the threat of
nuclear weapons. The City declared itself a 'Nuclear Free Zone' and
called on other local governments in the North West of England to
do the same.
The mission statement of the Nuclear Free Local Authorities' National
Steering Committee in the 1990s reads as follows:
"The Committee is convinced that nuclear weapons and energy systems
present extraordinary and unacceptable risks to the planet and its
people; it works for a nuclear free future in practical ways within
local government."

Scotland Against Nuclear Dumping
SAND
is a consortium of local groups which campaign for responsible radioactive
waste management in Scotland. Radioactive waste which our generation
has created will be a hazard for the rest of time, and it is important
that it is stored safely and under proper supervision in order that
it does not seep into water courses, land and sea, contaminating the
basic necessities of life for future generations. We believe that
we should deal with the waste we have created in a responsible way
and that other nations should do the same. SAND provides information
on issues involving radioactive waste and campaigns to stop irresponsible
actions by a nuclear industry which seems hell-bent on sweeping the
problems it has created under the carpet and leaving future generations
to suffer the consequences.

THE NUCLEAR CONTROL INSTITUTE
Founded in 1981, the Nuclear Control Institute (NCI) is an independent
research and advocacy center specializing in problems of nuclear proliferation.
Non-partisan and non-profit, we monitor nuclear activities worldwide
and pursue strategies to halt the spread and reverse the growth of
nuclear arms. In particular, we focus on the urgency of eliminating
atom-bomb materials ---plutonium and highly enriched uranium---from
civilian nuclear power and research programs.

We're small. We're powerful. We're anti-nuclear. We are grass-root
oriented. And we are proud of what we have achieved. We are anxious
to go on, serving the people with important information and skills.
We exist since 1978; in a small office with only six people working
at WISE International, of whom only one is paid.
