Note that the Abalone Alliance, was the grassroots anti-nuclear movement in California from 1977-1985 when it formally disbanded. At its peak, it included over 60 member groups across the state of California, and offices in most of its largest cities. Membership was well over 100,000, with Greenpeace as a member group. It had two statewide offices, one in San Francisco (still in existance and the other (DPO) in San Luis Obispo.
It organized the largest anti-nuclear civil disobediance act in U.S. history with over 1,800 people arrested in September 1981 at the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant.
The Energy Net website is the archival site for the group and continues to monitor nuclear and safe energy issues today. The Energy Net's regular coverage of energy news worldwide is here.
