NUCLEAR TESTING
GISBORNE AGAINST
Greenpeace representatives visited Gisborne to speak of the Mana Tangata - the strength of the people - to change the policies of sink to sea where land based sources enter the rivers, carrying the sewerage & chemicals into the sea. A media call to gather at the wharf, to show strength of opinion, was heeded by many Gisborne people in a peaceful protest.
School pupils, the caretakers of the future, recognised their determination to abhor nuclear testing now and in the future not only for mankind but also for the environment.
Kathie Fletcher signed as did Tairua Storm, signing his name, to the Gisborne protest against nuclear bomb tests.
