The NUCLEAR-FREE FUTURE AWARDS
Hans Schuirer, Germany
Categories: Lifetime Achievement and Special Recognition – 2014
The resistance against the reprocessing plant in Wackersdorf was supported by the highest politician in the district: Hans Schuierer. The incorruptible district administrator refused the building permit, demonstrated together with his wife Lilo and supported the demonstrators in building their village of huts. This was tantamount to treason. In 1989 the Bavarian government decided not to build the reprocessing plant . He received the NFFA for his life’s work.
