The Smiling Sun logo was designed in 1975 by Danish activist Anne Lund who was part of the Danish organization OOA (Organisationen til Oplysning om Atomkraft [dk]/Organization for Nuclear Energy Information). By asking the question: “Nuclear? and politely replying "No thanks", the logo was intended to express friendly dissent and – by questioning nuclear energy – to stimulate dialogue.
