Please sign the petition to keep radioactive metal OFF THE MARKET!!! Thanks. Romi http://org2.democracyinaction.org/o/5502/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=12406 January 31, 2013 Stop DOE's radioactive metal "recycling" scheme! NIRS has issued an alert against a scheme to "recycle" vast quantities of radioactive metal from across the nuclear weapons complex into the consumer product recycling stream. NIRS asks, "Will the next zipper on your pants be radioactive? How about your silverware?", and explains: "The Department of Energy wants to mix radioactive metal from nuclear weapons factories with clean recycled metal and let it enter into general commerce--where it could be used for any purpose. It's a foot in the door for revival of a vast--and discredited--radioactive waste deregulation plan defeated in 1992." You can submit your opposition via NIRS' quick and easy web form, or use their more extensive talking points to write your own comments. Comments must be submitted to DOE by Feb. 11th.
