This week we bring you some good news from Western Australia where the Environmental Protection Agency's decided not to approve Cameco's proposal to mine uranium at Yeelirrie due to threats to subterranean fauna.  Mia Pepper, nuclear-free campaigner with the Conservation Council of Western Australia (ccwa.org.au) and Koara elder Richard Evans, co-founder of the Western Australian Nuclear Free Alliance (nuclearfree.wordpress.com) speak to us about over 40 years of struggle, the win and what is needed now.
