WWF
World Wide
Fund for Nature organised a complaint which was filed jointly with the
city of Geneva and other environmental organisations against the Superphénix
fast-breeder reactor in France. According to the arguments made by WWF,
the French Cour d'Etat, the highest administrative court, cancelled the
operating license on 28 February 1997. Since then, the reactor was never
relicensed and the reactor has been shut down permanently by the current
French Government.
