FANG charter

The Fremantle Anti-Nuclear Group (FANG) is an independent, community-based group of concerned citizens, absolutely committed to nonviolence, who work together to oppose the nuclear industry and promote safe energy alternatives in the Fremantle area.

We BELIEVE

• that the nuclear industry in its military and civil guises is a threat to the long-term viability of
  the environment and human society;
• that safe energy alternatives exist which, if brought into widespread use, would render nuclear energy obsolete, and;
• that nuclear weapons can and must be dismantled before their accidental or deliberate use anywhere in the world.

We OPPOSE

• the establishment of a uranium mining industry in Western Australia;
• the expansion of the uranium mining industry elsewhere in Australia;
• the use of atomic energy;
• any proposal to dump nuclear waste anywhere in the world;
• the visits of potentially nuclear armed or powered warships to the Port of Fremantle, and;
• nuclear weapons development and testing.

We SUPPORT

• the City of Fremantle in it’s efforts to establish a true nuclear free zone;
• the closure of the Lucas Heights Reactor and Australia’s immediate withdrawal from the nuclear fuel chain;
• the widespread, urgent adoption of safe energy technologies;
• other groups and citizens in Australia and around the world in their struggle against the nuclear industry;
• the principles of nonviolence.

The Fremantle Anti-Nuclear Group operates as a group of concerned citizens, rather than as
representatives of political parties or other groups. FANG, as a member of the the Anti-Nuclear Alliance of Western Australia, agrees to abide by the principles of this organisation.
