The Gary Null Show

Today's guest is Aileen Mee-o-yo Smith and she is the Executive Director of Green Action in Kyoto, Japan-- a citizens public protection organization founded in 1991 to stop Japan’s plutonium program and to shift the country’s emphasis on nuclear energy towards clean renewable. Aileen first became aware of the dangers of toxic waste in 1970, when she and her husband were documenting the human toll of mercury poisoning in the town of Minamata. Since then, she and her organization have become one of Japan’s leading and most effective voices challenging the production, commerce and transport of nuclear materials.
