Taipei, Jan. 7 (CNA) Anti-nuclear activists from Taiwan and Japan are calling for participation in a proposed international group lawsuit against the equipment suppliers of a Japanese nuclear plant that suffered meltdowns in a 2011 earthquake-tsunami catastrophe, in an effort to highlight the responsibilities they have for the disaster.
With the support of 500 Taiwanese citizens out of a target of 2,000, the organizers said Tuesday that they are aiming to enlist 10,000 supporters worldwide by the end of March to file a complaint against equipment suppliers to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, including General Electric, Toshiba and Hitachi.

Modern industrial society is a fanatical religion. We are demolishing, poisoning, destroying all life-systems on the planet. We are signing IOUs our children will not be able to pay...We are acting as if we were the last generation on the planet. Without a radical change in heart, in mind, in vision, the earth will end up like Venus, charred and dead. – Jose Antonio Lutzenberger, Brazilian Minister for the Environment
