Dear all, The following is a message from Greg Were, with some additional
information from Natalie Charlesworth of Channel 7.
Channel 7 Adelaide will launch next week the 'I'm with Ivy Campaign'.
Ivy is a woman in Adelaide who has been in other people power activities and
whose husband died 10 years ago from a Maralinga cancer. It is a petition
to stop any nuke waste being transported into SA.
The campaign aims to get over 100,000 signatures and culminate in a rally
at Parliament House at noon on Wednesday 16th August.
They plan to have booths in 30 locations around Adelaide and country and
will be putting the petition on the net. They have unions and companies
distributing the petition. Channel 7 are putting huge resources into this.
There is a strategy meeting to be held this Friday at 2 pm in a room at the
Prospect Town Hall. All interested people are very welcome to attend this
meeting. There will be signs at the Town Hall showing the way to the
meeting room.
For those of you in Adelaide who would like to get involved in the campaign
please ring Channel 7 and ask for Natalie Charlesworth ph: 8342 7230.
The Australian Conservation Foundation have had some discussions with 7 and
are working together with them at this stage.
They are particularly intertesed in getting people to coordinate the booths
and distribute petitions. If you can't go to meeting but would like to
help, Natalie would still be keen to hear from you.
Please feel free to email with any questions. Cheers Greg Were
