Why Ohio? Tell Ted Strickland No Nukes For Duke Energy

As you know, Ohio utilities rely too heavily on dirty and expensive fossil fuels. Ohio's new energy law requires utilities to invest in efficiency and renewables - creating jobs, protecting public health, and cleaning our air.

However, Ted Strickland supports folks like Duke Energy, who wants to be let off the hook for its efficiency responsibilities and has proposed to build an expensive new nuclear plant instead. If Duke gets away with gutting Ohio's new efficiency and renewable standard, other utilities may try to follow suit!

Wind power and energy efficiency are far cheaper, cleaner and safer than building a new nuclear plant. Ted Strickland knows this, but because Duke Energy PACS have put big money into Ted's re-election campaign this fall, Ted will back Duke's plan for more Nukes in Ohio!

Duke Energy should shield customers from rising energy costs through efficiency and by building more renewables - not a nuclear plant. Duke's plans are bad for Ohio's economy and for the environment!

It's time Ohioans tell folks like Ted Strickland and Duke Energy that we want more renewable energy, not more dirty NUKE PLANTS!

Ohio now receives only 1 percent of it's energy from renewable energy sources. The national average is 9 percent. We need more green energy, not more NUKES!!!

It's time for Ohio to elect a true, Green Governor for Ohio. It's time for Ohio to say NO to Ted Strickland and his dirty NUKE PLANS!!!
