[Susan Gawarecki]

A NEW PRONUCLEAR ADVOCACY GROUP WAS LAUNCHED on April 24. Called the 
CASEnergy Coalition, the group is cochaired by Greenpeace cofounder 
Patrick Moore and former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator 
Christine Todd Whitman. CASEnergy (short for "clean and safe energy") 
describes itself as a "large, diverse group that will work to unite 
consumers, conservationists, academics, health care advocates, labor 
organizations, business groups, professional organizations, family 
advocates, environmentalists, and community leaders who support nuclear 
energy's ability to enhance America's energy security, attain cleaner 
air, and improve the quality of life, health, and economic well-being 
for all Americans." More information is available at the organization's 
Web site, <www.cleansafeenergy.org/>.
