This badge was made circa 1980 - 1986 and used around the same period. It is a variation of the famous Smiling Sun badge with the slogan 'Nuclear Power? No thanks.' The image is a re-interpretation of the Smiling Sun logo designed in 1975 by the Danish activist Anne Lund, that has been adopted worldwide as the most potent symbol of the anti-nuclear movement. This design takes the idea of rejecting nuclear power further by offering a potential alternative in the form of solar power.
