Hunter residents are protesting against the Coalition's plans to build nuclear reactors in the region, as a political hearing is scheduled for Muswellbrook. Doctors for the Environment Australia members, including Dr. Ben Ewald, Dr. John Van Der Kallen, and others, are expected to state their case.
The community is concerned about the risks of nuclear reactors, including threats to the region's economy, water supply, health and wellbeing, energy security, and the impact on children's futures if the transition to clean energy is delayed.
