Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 68-points this morning from Friday's close, at 23,314 on turnover of 5.3-billion N-T. The market gained solid ground on relativily strong turnover on Friday, after Wall Street rose to more records overnight following better than-expected updates on America's economy and a mixed set of profit reports from several leading U-S companies. Police investigating egg throwing in front of DPP's Taipei headquarters Police in Taipei say they're investigating incidents of eggs being thrown at the D-P-P headquarters building. Eggs were reportedly thrown at the building on Beiping East Road during an anti-recall rally organized by the Taiwan People's Party. Speaking at the event, T-P-P Chairman, Huang Kuo-chang called on voters to turn out (出席) in support of five of the K-M-T candidates facing recalls this coming Saturday. The event was attended by all eight members of the T-P-P legislative caucus and the five Taipei K-M-T lawmakers being targeted by the recall. Taiwan's new representative arrives in Thailand Taiwan's new representative to Thailand, Peter Lan has arrived in Bangkok to take up his post. Lan and his wife were greeted by his deputy and staff at the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Thailand, as well as Taiwanese businesspeople and expats on their arrival at Bangkok's main international airport. Speaking briefly there, Lan said he plans to promote (推動) cooperation and build connections between Taiwan and Thailand in trade, technology, education, labor and culture. Lan arrived in Thailand after serving as the head of the foreign ministry's Department of East Asian and Pacific Affairs since July of 2023. Indonesia Ferry Fire Leaves 3 Dead Indonesian rescuers evacuating people from a passenger ferry that caught fire at sea say more than 560 were rescued and three died. The ferry was making a regular half-day journey to Manado, the capital of North Sulawesi province, from a port in the same province Sunday when the fire started about midday. Rescue crews pulled many people from the sea, and local fishermen also saved some survivors (倖存者) as they were drifting in the choppy waters. Authorities previously said five people died, but revised it to three Monday after two passengers initially reported as dead were saved in a hospital. Request to unseal Epstein grand jury transcripts likely to disappoint, ex-prosecutors say A former prosecutor says a request to unseal the Epstein grand jury transcripts (文字記錄) are likely to disappoint. AP correspondent Julie Walker reports Japan Decontaminated Soil at PM Office Decontaminated but slightly radioactive soil from Fukushima has been delivered to the Japanese prime minister's office to be reused in an effort to showcase its safety. Officials say the soil meets safety standards set by the Environment Ministry and the International Atomic Energy Agency. It will be covered with topsoil in a lawn garden to keep radiation levels negligible and monitored regularly. Saturday's delivery marks the first reuse of such soil outside Fukushima experiments (實驗). The government hopes this move will reassure the public of its safety as it seeks to reduce the massive volume of contaminated soil stored near the nuclear plant. That was the I.C.R.T.

The reuse of soil removed during decontamination work after the 2011 nuclear accident in Fukushima Prefecture in northeastern Japan began at the prime minister's office in Tokyo on Saturday.
Unbeknownst to most people, Japan recently released its 12th batch of radioactive nuclear wastewater into the Pacific Ocean.This latest batch of discharge weighed approximately 7,800 tons, or around 15.6 million pounds.Including this latest batch, it means that Japan has dumped an estimated 86,000 tons of nuclear wastewater into the Pacific Ocean thus far. This sounds like a lot, but it's actually only the beginning. Its plan is to continue doing this for the next 30 years, and in the process, dump roughly 1.3 million tons of nuclear wastewater.The reason for this stems from what happened 14 years ago, during the Fukushima nuclear disaster. That was when an earthquake and subsequent tsunami caused a near meltdown of the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant.The disaster led to the contamination of a million tons of water.For the past 14 years, Japan has kept this water inside the plant, where it has been slowly treating it. But it ran out of space. Therefore, the Japanese government began to slowly release this treated radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean.Let's go through the full story, as well as what the latest research has found, in terms of the effects that this wastewater is having on the local marine life.
Writer Thomas Bass is trying to wake us up. in his latest book Return to Fukushima, his is a compelling voice of opposition to the idea that atomic power will solve our energy needs. He talks with Rosemary on Armao on the Brink.
Today on the Hudson Mohawk Magazine: We start off with two segments about the dangers of nuclear power plants. First, we hear about why climate groups oppose Governor Hochul's plan to expand nuclear power. Then, Rosemary Armao discusses the Fukushima nuclear accident with Thomas Bass, author of “Return to Fukushima.” Later on, for our peace segment, we hear local efforts to make a film about the 2018 nuclear missile scare in Hawaii. After that, we have an interview with Youth FX and their Arts2Work Program, a year-long paid fellowship for young artists. Finally, Kevin Pryor talks about successful youth support.

Bei der Frauen-Weltmeisterschaft 2011 in Deutschland schrieb das japanische Nationalteam Fußballgeschichte: Nadeshiko Japan gewann gegen teils übermächtige Gegnerinnen sensationell den WM-Titel. Der erste Fußball-Weltmeister überhaupt aus Asien. Es war mehr als ein sportlicher Sieg: Nur wenige Monate nach dem verheerenden Tsunami und der Atomkatastrophe von Fukushima 2011 wurde der WM-Erfolg zum Symbol der Hoffnung für ein ganzes Land. In dieser Episode gibt es die bewegende Geschichte hinter dem Titelgewinn bei der Fußball-WM 2011 der Frauen. Außerdem geht es um das technisch brillante, taktisch überlegte Spiel der Japanerinnen, ihre emotionale Motivation – und den enormen gesellschaftlichen Druck, unter dem sie standen. Denn während in Japan tausende Menschen ihr Zuhause verloren hatten, trat das Team mit einer Mission an: Hoffnung schenken. Ganz vorne stand Japans Anführerin und Kapitänen Homare Sawa. Schon mit 15 Jahren trug sie das Nationaltrikot und sollte sich bei dieser Weltmeisterschaft die Krone aufsetzen. An Dramatik kaum zu übertreffen war das WM-Finale Japan gegen die USA, das erst in einem nervenaufreibenden Elfmeterschießen endete. Doch dieser Sieg war trotzdem kein Zufallsprodukt. Hinter dem Triumph stand jahrelange Aufbauarbeit, Disziplin, ein außergewöhnlicher Teamgeist und ein Land, das seine Heldinnen feiert. Was bedeutet ein sportlicher Erfolg in Zeiten nationaler Krise? Wie wurde der WM-Sieg 2011 in Japan aufgenommen? Und wie nachhaltig war der Einfluss auf Gesellschaft und Frauenfußball? In dieser Episode gibt es einen Rückblick auf eines der eindrucksvollsten Kapitel der Fußballgeschichte. Es zeigt, wie der Sport in dunklen Momenten Licht spenden kann.

En Mauritanie, la petite société australienne Aura Energy entend commencer d'ici à la fin de l'année le développement de la première mine d'uranium du pays à Tiris, dans le nord-est du pays, pour une entrée en production en 2027. Le contexte est favorable, avec beaucoup de mines d'uranium en fin de vie. La Banque mondiale est également de nouveau prête à financer l'énergie nucléaire, considérée comme décarbonée. Le projet mauritanien est-il en mesure d'en profiter ? Le potentiel en uranium du bouclier de Reguibat, dans le Sahara mauritanien, est connu depuis les années 60. La société australienne Aura Energy s'y intéresse depuis 2008. « L'entreprise était en Mauritanie à ce moment-là, à la recherche d'or, raconte son PDG Andrew Grove. Elle a identifié une anomalie radiométrique à partir de l'étude, elle a trouvé de l'uranium et débuté des travaux. Mais il y a eu la crise financière mondiale et ensuite Fukushima, le prix de l'uranium est longtemps resté très bas, il y avait des difficultés à obtenir les fonds nécessaires. Mais aujourd'hui, le prix de l'uranium est en train de rebondir, on assiste à une nouvelle renaissance de l'énergie nucléaire. Je pense donc que c'est le bon moment pour concevoir une mine là-bas. » Absence de contrat avec des exploitants de réacteurs Un an après avoir obtenu son permis du gouvernement mauritanien, Aura Energy affirme être en passe d'obtenir un crédit de 150 millions de dollars d'une banque de développement, sur les 300 millions nécessaires au démarrage des opérations. Le contexte est propice au nucléaire. Le gisement mauritanien, certes modeste, un millier de tonnes d'oxyde d'uranium par an sur 10 ans, est peu profond, donc moins coûteux à exploiter que, par exemple, l'uranium nigérien. Mais selon Teva Meyer, il manque une étape importante pour qu'il soit financé. « La chose qu'on voit avec Aura Energy, qui me fait être un peu prudent, c'est que par rapport à d'autres projets de mines d'uranium, Aura Energy n'a pas encore signé de contrat avec des exploitants de réacteurs nucléaires. Pour le moment tout du moins. C'est absolument nécessaire pour que derrière, les financeurs de type banques privées aient une certitude que vous aurez des débouchés pour votre projet. » Une logistique de l'uranium à mettre en place Autre doute, l'absence de logistique en Mauritanie pour les matières radioactives. « Ce qui est clair, c'est que cet uranium ne va pas traverser le désert par le Nord, il va forcément aller jusqu'à Nouakchott, anticipe Teva Meyer. Pour le moment, il n'y a pas d'uranium qui passe par Nouakchott, Il n'y a pas non plus de matières radioactives qui passent par Nouakchott. Donc ça veut dire quand même toute une procédure administrative. Ça veut aussi dire trouver un armateur qui passe par cet endroit. On ne parle pas de volumes qui sont si importants, donc pas forcément un commerce très rentable pour les armateurs. » Beaucoup de défis à relever donc pour la petite société australienne. Mais Aura Energy pourrait aussi avoir en tête de céder la mine de Tiris à un opérateur plus grand. Son PDG Andrew Grove est d'ailleurs un ancien cadre de la filiale australienne du géant français Orano.

“Let me tell you about the very rich”, Scott Fitzgerald once said. “They are different from you and me”. One way they are different, the New Yorker staff writer Evan Osnos reports, is that they own yachts - very very big, expensive yachts. In The Haves and The Have-Yachts, Osnos' dispatches about today's ultrarich, he takes us on board these boats to reveal the obscenity of our new gilded age. From Mark Zuckerberg's obsession with Augustus Caesar to the thin-skinned grievances of figures like Marc Andreessen and Elon Musk, Osnos explores how the personal quirks and anxieties of just 19 American plutocrats - the 0.00001% - are now reshaping our entire society. He argues we're living in an era of "flamboyant oligarchy," where billionaires openly flaunt their wealth. Citing the extraordinary tableau of tech moguls lining up in homage to Trump at his inauguration, Osnos describes our age as "the complete and total fusion of politics and plutocracy in the United States." five key takeaways1. We're Living in an Era of "Flamboyant Oligarchy" Unlike past wealthy elites who stayed hidden ("a whale that never surfaces doesn't get harpooned"), today's billionaires openly compete for attention and flaunt their wealth, fundamentally changing the relationship between extreme wealth and public life.2. Just 19 People Could Control 18% of America's Wealth The 0.00001% - currently 19 Americans - control 1.8% of national wealth today. If current trends continue, this could reach 18% within 40 years, representing an unprecedented concentration of economic power in human history.3. Personal Quirks Have Massive Social Consequences Billionaires' individual obsessions and blind spots shape society at scale - from Facebook being blue because Zuckerberg is colorblind, to his Augustus Caesar fixation influencing how he thinks about power and empire-building.4. The Complete Fusion of Politics and Plutocracy Trump's inauguration, featuring tech moguls "lined up in homage," represents the total merger of political and economic power in America - what Osnos calls a "sultanistic oligarchy" where billionaires have elevated Trump to rule on their behalf.5. Billionaires Are Surprisingly Thin-Skinned and Aggrieved Despite their wealth, figures like Musk and Andreessen are easily offended and resentful about public criticism, leading them not to retreat but to actively seek control over politics and media to reshape the narrative in their favor.

This episode of the IPS DEPROGRAM, recorded on May 30th, 2025, begins by noting that the date is "just 11 days out from what could be a very interesting day". While acknowledging there's "always a curveball", the speaker refers to the "consistent representation of the destruction of the Space Needle" in conjunction with themes like EMP, blackout, and earthquakes as strongly suggesting potential future events.A central theme discussed is the potential for a **nuke scenario involving water and a coast, specifically Seattle**. This idea ties into symbolism from various media, including the **Kraken** from *Hunt for Red October* and the **Poseidon weapon** from conversations about the Odyssey and the nymph Calypso. The Space Needle is linked to this through a sculpture at its base in *Final Destination* depicting a "massive crab coming out of the water". The speaker notes this "ties it together kind of neatly". **Godzilla is also presented as a metaphor for the nuke**, with the release of the film coinciding with *Oppenheimer*. An EMP event is considered part of this story, potentially originating "from the water". The conversation also touches on a Japanese comic book that allegedly predicted the Fukushima disaster and now points to July for a "major disaster," leading to tourists canceling plans. A participant, Diana Southard, suggests a "tsunami created by a nuked submarine".
From the BBC World Service: China has agreed to start lifting its ban on Japanese fish, almost two years after it blocked imports over the release of treated wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear plant. Russia made more than $25 billion last year exporting fossil fuels to the European Union; that's $4.5 billion more than the E.U. gave Kyiv in aid. The Super Bowl halftime show is iconic, but in soccer, it's a different picture. European leagues and FIFA are spending big on pre-match entertainment, with halftime shows planned for the next World Cup. But do fans even want it?

The nuclear industry and its boosters promise clean, abundant energy, but nuclear power delivers expensive electricity while posing catastrophic radiation risks and a constant threat of nuclear war. M. V. Ramana, physicist and author of Nuclear is Not the Solution, explains why respecting the limits of the biosphere means reducing our energy use and rejecting elites' push for endless growth. Highlights include: Why nuclear energy is inherently risky due to its complex, tightly coupled systems that are prone to catastrophic failures that can't be predicted or prevented; Why nuclear waste poses long-term threats to all life by remaining dangerously radioactive for thousands of years, with no safe, permanent disposal solution and frequent storage failures; Why nuclear energy is expensive, with projects routinely running over budget and behind schedule; Why the expansion of nuclear energy increases the likelihood of devastating nuclear war; How climate change and war-time accidents or direct targeting increase the risks of nuclear catastrophe; Why nuclear Uranium mining and its wastes often require ‘sacrifice zones' that are disproportionately found in indigenous land and less powerful communities; How the nuclear industry shapes nuclear policy and debate by capturing regulators and creating an energy ‘panic' based on one-sided narratives that block democratic discussion and scrutiny; Why, despite the hype from the nuclear industry, new nuclear plant designs like small modular reactors are subject to the same cost and safety concerns as the old designs; Why the best answer to dealing with renewable energy's variability is not nuclear or fossil fuels but reducing demand; Why renewable energy is no panacea for planetary overshoot and why we need to have a broadly democratic conversation about living within the limits of the planet. See episode website for show notes, links, and transcript: https://www.populationbalance.org/podcast/mv-ramana OVERSHOOT | Shrink Toward Abundance OVERSHOOT tackles today's interlocked social and ecological crises driven by humanity's excessive population and consumption. The podcast explores needed narrative, behavioral, and system shifts for recreating human life in balance with all life on Earth. With expert guests from wide-ranging disciplines, we examine the forces underlying overshoot: from patriarchal pronatalism that is fueling overpopulation, to growth-biased economic systems that lead to consumerism and social injustice, to the dominant worldview of human supremacy that subjugates animals and nature. Our vision of shrinking toward abundance inspires us to seek pathways of transformation that go beyond technological fixes toward a new humanity that honors our interconnectedness with all beings.

Julia Pyke is joint managing director of the Sizewell C nuclear plant and she thinks nuclear power has an image problem. She blames a lot of this on The Simpsons cartoon and in particular, the evil character Mr Burns. However, as Pyke explains to Dougal Shaw, she is trying to challenge that stereotype while building Sizewell C in Suffolk, which is due to switch on in the mid-2030s.The UK hasn't turned on a new nuclear plant for three decades. The climate crisis has made nuclear energy more appealing. However, nuclear disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima still loom large in the public imagination. Pyke explains how she is building a nuclear workforce that is diverse and reflects modern society, while also making the case for the safety of the nuclear industry. Hosted on Acast.

Decommissioning the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan began soon after it suffered a triple meltdown in March 2011. Fourteen years on, the work continues. This summer will mark two years since Tokyo Electric Power Company, the plant's operator, began discharging water that was used to cool the damaged reactors into the sea. In November last year, workers removed a few grams of radioactive debris from a reactor for the first time. A second extraction took place a few weeks ago. Neighbourhoods closest to the plant are still off-limits, but other areas are safe to live in. For some residents, life is slowly returning to normal. Justin McCurry, Alexis Bregere and Airi Futakuchi Report.
Dozens of new nuclear power projects are planned across the world, amid efforts to reduce the use of fossil fuels. But why build more reactors when renewable sources of generating electricity, like wind and solar might be cheaper?We explore why countries are turning - or returning - to nuclear fission, notably Japan, which dealt with a meltdown at its Fukushima plant in 2011. And we look at how Germany's decision to close all of its reactors has caused problems for the country's economy. We also learn how Amazon, Google and Microsoft are investing in nuclear power, with plans to use smaller modular reactors to run data storage centres in the United States, as demand for electricity is expected to surge when artificial intelligence is running at full capacity.If you would like to get in touch with the show, please email: businessdaily@bbc.co.ukPresented and produced by Russell Padmore(Pictures: A photo taken on November 6, 2024, shows the construction site of Units 7 and 8 of Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant in Lianyungang, China.

Hola amigos, tengo el placer de anunciar que por fin he podido entrevistar a un insider que estuvo en el desmantelamiento de Vandellós I tras el mayor accidente nuclear ocurrido en España. Tuve una ventana de oportunidad para poder entrevistarlo, ya que se trata de una persona que viaja por todo el mundo. Esta próxima semana salía de viaje para dirigir un equipo durante 3 semanas. Intente entrevistarlo por skype y luego por teléfono…pero parecía que el destino no quería ayudarnos. Tenía que ser en persona. No me lo pensé dos veces. Así que fui directamente a entrevistarlo al hotel donde estaba en ese momento…y tras una cerveza en el bar del hotel logré por fin la entrevista. Me ha costado poder entrevistarle, y aunque él sigue creyendo en la energía nuclear incluso tras haber sufrido en sus propias carnes las consecuencias de un accidente por negligencia de la empresa para la que trabajaba, sus declaraciones dejaran bien a las claras la forma chapucera de proceder en dicho desmantelamiento. Nadie que haya trabajado en un entorno así ha hablado tan claramente de lo que allí dentro se cuece. Les voy a presentar una colección de enlaces para poder saber que fue aquel accidente según la versión oficial, que podrán ver en un artículo en la sección de enlaces. Les aseguro que les interesara escucharlo…es una grandísima persona. Ojala tuviésemos otros muchos técnicos como él. El año pasado a raíz de un artículo de VozPopuli explicaba como supuestamente tuvieron que ventear el aire de dentro del cajón de Vandellós I (que no del sarcófago como explicaré)…y ventear significa liberar gases a la atmósfera. Mi artículo titulado Vandellós I empieza a inflarse pero son radiaciones sanas nos mostraba claramente la chapuza que nos habían mantenido oculta y que nos habían empaquetado con un «cajoncito con lacito». Ahora por fin sabremos que se cocía allí dentro…quizás nuestro insider sea alguna de las personas que aparecen en las fotografías oficiales del informe de ENRESA… El informe oficial de aquel desmantelamiento lo tienen aquí pero les aseguro que nada de lo que nos contara este insider estará allí reflejado. Ya sabemos para que valen los informes oficiales. En una noticia del jueves 22 de febrero de 1990 veis como el presidente del CSN habla de que se menospreciaban las prácticas de control general que si se practicaban en otras centrales. ¿Qué fue lo que provocó el accidente? ¿Fue una negligencia o se decidió realizar una modificación que se sabía acabaría en tragedia? ¿Por qué no volvieron a sustituir solo la turbina que parece ser que fue lo único totalmente dañado y así seguiríamos «disfrutando» de la única central nuclear que como bien apunta el artículo del blog Ataque al poder ¡Alerta! A un suspiro de Chernóbil y Fukushima podría producir plutonio de calidad militar? !!Ay de esos cohetes Capricornio que tenían enamorados a nuestros militares¡¡ De como España fue potencia nuclear durante un tiempo y sobre mi hipótesis de que provocó este accidente hablare en otros futuros artículos. Desde luego en prensa de la época se dijo que algunos técnicos huyeron de la sala de control, gritando… ¡¡¡Se va!!!, ¡¡¡El reactor se va!!! Y no lo digo yo…lo cuentan los bomberos que se metieron a apagar el fuego. La cuestión es que aunque solo tres años antes de producirse este «accidente» de Vandellós I se había producido el de Chernóbil en 1986 nunca se llegaron a ejecutar las modificaciones que exigió el CSN (Centro de Seguridad Nuclear) y que quizás hubieran impedido este accidente. Lo mas curioso es ver como la prensa repitió que solo dos bombas turbosoplantes habían quedado dañadas en el incendio…nuestro insider nos contara como de las cuatro instaladas solo sobrevivió una por azares del destino, ya que el agua llegó a la altura de los cuadros eléctricos que la energizaban. Si aquellas mas de 3000 toneladas de grafito, cientos de uranio y algunos kilogramos de plutonio hubieran alcanzado la temperatura de no retorno…hubiéramos tenido nuestro propio Chernóbil en España. ¿Por qué no citó la organización ecologista la presencia de plutonio en aquel reactor? ¿Por qué en ningún periódico se habló de contaminantes radiactivos como el uranio, el radio o el americio…que también estaban presentes en aquel cóctel letal? En fin, que nunca nos contaron la verdad y por fin vamos a conocerla de manos de un insider, de una persona que trabajó en el desmantelamiento de dicha central y que ya había trabajado antes allí. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Part 2 of the Nuclear Mini-Series This is part two of my mini-series on nuclear power and whether it could be the clean energy solution we've all been waiting for.As I said before (and it bears repeating): fossil fuels kill about 8 million people every single year — more than the populations of Aotearoa and most of the Pacific Islands combined.Despite that, nuclear power remains the energy source we fear the most. But should we?In the last episode, we explored the science of nuclear — what it is, how it works, and why it's not nearly as scary as it sounds. In this episode, we dive into its history — a sometimes horrifying, sometimes absurd, and often misunderstood timeline that shaped our collective anxiety around nuclear energy.In this episode, I cover:The early discoveries of nuclear materials and radiationHow public fear around nuclear energy really beganThe rise of nuclear bombs and the race for atomic powerWhat actually happens inside a nuclear reactor (in plain English)The major nuclear disasters that shaped global perceptionWhat went wrong at Three Mile IslandWhat made Chernobyl so catastrophicWhy Fukushima shook public confidence in nuclear safetyKey quotes:“Nuclear energy got its hideous reputation before it had even powered a single light bulb.”“Creepy green glows and mutant fish? That's science fiction, not reality.”“Public anxiety about nuclear energy didn't actually start with power stations.”Books & Resources Mentioned:Here are the books and materials I mentioned for anyone who wants to explore:The Radium Girls by Kate MooreA gripping and enraging true story of the young women who painted glow-in-the-dark watch faces with radioactive paint — and paid the ultimate price. The Woman Who Knew Too Much by Gayle GreeneA biography of Dr. Alice Stewart, who studied radiation risks and stood up to the nuclear establishment. (Recommended for broader radiation safety context).Atoms and Ashes: A Global History of Nuclear Disasters by Serhii PlokhyCovers Six major nuclear incidents — including Chernobyl, Fukushima, and Three Mile Island — with historical and political analysis.If you want to go down the rabbit hole, I also recommend googling:“Radithor” (yes, that glowing bottled water was real)“Clarence Dally and Thomas Edison” (the first radiation death in the U.S).Find our full podcast via the website here:https://www.nowthatswhaticall.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nowthatswhaticallgreen/You can follow me on socials on the below accounts.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannemwest/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@briannemwestLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/briannemwest/For our latest big project, find out more about Incrediballs here: https://incrediballs.com/

Amerykanie chcą, by Teheran całkowicie wyzbył się możliwości rozwijania energii nuklearnej. Irańczycy nie chcą jednak słyszeć o zakazie prowadzenia badań nad wykorzystaniem wzbogaconego uranu do celów pokojowych i gospodarczych. Rozmowom przygląda się Izrael, który grozi, że jeśli nie dojdzie do porozumienia, samodzielnie zniszczy irańskie obiekty atomowe. Czy te rozmowy mają szansę powodzenia? Na ile obie strony są gotowe na kompromis? I czy rzeczywiście Ameryka jest gotowa wziąć udział w ewentualnym ataku na Iran?W Argentynie trwa strajk generalny w proteście przeciwko polityce zaciskania pasa prowadzonej przez prezydenta. To już trzeci strajk w ciągu półtorarocznych rządów Javiera Milei. Mimo to poparcie dla prezydenta utrzymuje się na wysokim poziomie. Dlaczego?Japonia zapowiada znaczne zwiększenie udziału atomu w krajowej produkcji energii. Czy w tym kraju opadły już obawy związane z awarią elektrowni Fukushima podczas tsunami w 2011 roku? I czy rzeczywiście tak wiele państw wiąże przyszłość swoich gospodarek z energią jądrową?Jon Voight, Sylvester Stallone i Mel Gibson to ambasadorzy prezydenta Trumpa w Hollywood. Ich zadaniem ma być uczynienie Fabryki Snów „na powrót wielką”.

He is the author of books like Nuclear is for Life: A Cultural Revolution, Radiation and Reason: The Impact of Science on a Culture of Fear, and Fundamental Physics for Probing and Imaging. In this episode, we talk about nuclear energy. We start by discussing the link between energy and life, and four energyrevolutions that occurred on Earth. We then get specifically into nuclear energy, and talk about what it is, whether there is a link between nuclear energy and nuclear weapons, the accidents of Chernobyl and Fukushima, the risks of ionizing radiation, the pros and cons of renewable energy and nuclear energy, how we deal with nuclear waste, and common misconceptions surrounding nuclear energy. We also discuss why some environmentalists are against nuclear energy, the consequences of not using nuclear energy or moving away from it, and how we can rehabilitate the way people think about nuclear energy.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Why doesn't the media name and shame the real villains of the climate change story? How can tobacco industry-like litigation impact fossil fuel companies? What are the obstacles of transitioning to a clean energy future? Zachary and Emma speak with journalist, author, and founder of the Heated Substack, Emily Atkin. They discuss the Trump administration's impact on worldwide climate policy and financing, the power of 24 American states participating in fossil fuel lawsuits and Paris Agreement goals, and how Germany walked back its renewable energy stance after Japan's Fukushima nuclear disaster. Emily also emphasizes the need for transparent journalism when covering climate issues. What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.

This week, we talk Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs) with James Krellenstein, the CEO of Alva Energy. We dive into the engineering, history, and physics of these reactors, how they differ from other designs, and why the United States may have erred in not choosing the Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR) instead of the Westinghouse AP-1000 for the Vogtle nuclear power plant.For this episode, we've included a glossary below to help with unfamiliar terms:ABWR: Advanced Boiling Water ReactorATWS: Anticipated Transient Without ScramBORAX experiments: Historical experiments testing reactor limits through deliberate failuresBWR: Boiling Water ReactorCOPS: Containment Overpressure Protection SystemCRDM: Control Rod Drive MechanismESBWR: Economic Simplified Boiling Water ReactorFLEX: Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies (post-Fukushima enhancements)FOAK: First of a kindIGSCC: Intergranular Stress Corrosion CrackingNOAK: N-nth of a kindNRC: Nuclear Regulatory CommissionNSSS: Nuclear Steam Supply System (N Triple-S)PRA: Probabilistic Risk AssessmentPWR: Pressurized Water ReactorRCIC: Reactor Core Isolation Cooling System RPV: Reactor Pressure VesselSLC: Standby Liquid Control SystemRead more on Substack!
