Smiling Sun information


Smiling Sun logo (English-language version)

The Nuclear Power? No Thanks logo (Danish: Atomkraft? Nej tak), also known as the Smiling Sun, is an international symbol of the anti-nuclear movement. The logo has been present worldwide since the late 1970s and the 1980s. BBC News reported in 2005 that few symbols had become "as instantly recognizable across the world", and even the nuclear power industry had recognized the logo's "power and success."[1] Over 20 million Smiling Sun badges have been produced in over 60 languages,[2] such as Danish, Korean, Swedish, English, Arabic, Hebrew, Norwegian, and Russian. In recent years[when?] the logo has been playing a prominent role once again to raise awareness and funding for anti-nuclear groups, especially in Germany, Austria and Switzerland where opposition is growing to plans for extending the operation of old nuclear reactors and constructing new ones.
