ALARM no. 11

Abstract

Massachusetts Earth First!, ed., ALARM no. 11 (September 1994). Republished by the Environment & Society Portal, Multimedia Library. http://www.environmentandsociety.org/node/7105.

Mass EF! has produced this issue of the ALARM. In it, readers are asked to write letters of encouragement to prisoners of conscience; Don Ogden calls for attention to the Western Abenaki people and their struggle for the health of their fishing waters; and Barbara McGovern updates readers on the radioactive waste management proposal in Massachusetts:

"The Massachusetts Radioactive Waste Management Board, a gubantorially [sic] appointed board in charge of finding a "solution" to the radioactive waste problem in MA, is looking for land in Massachusetts to "manage" so called "low-level" radioactive waste. On paper it might sound great and supporters claim it's going to be good for the economy, but it's not! The neat little public relations campaign would leave any think [sic] man or woman believing that way. One only needs to take a closer look at the picture to find out what is going on."
— Barbara McGovern
