Quick recap The meeting focused on two major topics: voting rights and nuclear power. The discussion began with concerns about ICE's presence at polling places and the SAVE Act, which would require proof of citizenship for voter registration. The group then explored the dangers of reopening aging nuclear power plants, particularly Palisades in Michigan, where Holtec International faces significant challenges in meeting safety standards and documentation requirements. The conversation highlighted how both Democratic and Republican leaders are supporting nuclear power despite its cost and safety issues, with Trump personally taking control of nuclear regulations. The conversation ended with concerns about California's Democratic Party platform, which removed environmental protections and nuclear power restrictions, and the need for a renewed focus on solar and wind energy over nuclear power. Next steps Hedy Tripp: Persuade Minneapolis training organizers to consider putting their in-person ICE resistance training sessions on the internet (e.g., Zoom, Instagram) for broader access, as requested by Sunny. Andrea Miller: Share the link to the Virginia redistricting presentation in the chat and host the presentation on Thursday night as announced. Ellen Slavick: Put the link to the "Atomic Dragons by Swans" art exhibition at Pitzer College in the chat (confirmed done during meeting). Vina Colley: Connect with Ellen Slavick (and her husband) regarding radiation exposure assessment work and share relevant links or information as requested. Dorothy Reik and Susie Shannon: Reach out to the new Environmental Caucus chair (Sam) to educate him on the facts about nuclear energy and work to reintroduce anti-nuclear language into the California Democratic Party platform. Roger Rapoport, Susan Shapiro, Karl Grossman, and Sunny: Collaborate on writing and publicizing the findings about Holtec/Palisades and the lack of documentation, targeting both public education and the financial/investor community. Team: Organize and promote participation in the No King's Day march (March 28th) and link nuclear safety concerns to Donald Trump's role in nuclear regulation for public education. Team: Attempt to contact Joe Rogan (and/or Stuart Brand) to engage in public discussion/debate on nuclear issues, as suggested by David Saltman. Vina Colley: Work with Veterans for Peace, Chris Busby, and Paul Mobley to develop and share materials calculating radiation exposure for affected communities. Team: Revisit and discuss Don Mosier's research on low-dose radiation and breast cancer in a future meeting, as suggested by Myla. Karl Grossman: Publish and distribute the article on New York's nuclear push and the climate change misinformation to national outlets after Long Island distribution. Team: Focus public education efforts on the true emissions and climate impact of nuclear energy, as highlighted by Susan Shapiro and Karl Grossman. Summary Team Meeting and Event Planning The meeting began with greetings and technical adjustments, including addressing audio issues for Myla. Gree-Gree and Harvey discussed editing a video, which caused some frustration. The group briefly touched on current events, such as the Texas gubernatorial race and a power outage at a nuclear plant in Delaware. Hedy shared her experience attending a conference in Southern California. As the conversation ended, participants prepared for an upcoming event, with Sunny and others discussing logistics and welcoming attendees. Election and Nuclear Power Concerns The meeting focused on two main topics: election protection and nuclear power issues. The group discussed concerns about ICE presence at polling stations in 2026 and Trump's efforts to eliminate voting by mail. They also addressed the situation in Minneapolis, where Hedy Tripp reported on weekly rallies and a planned week-long training session for resistance activities. The second hour of the meeting will cover nuclear power issues, including the restart of the reactor at Three Mile Island and the Palisades nuclear plant situation. Vote-by-Mail and ICE Election Impact Melissa Bird, a candidate for Congress in Oregon's 4th Congressional District, discussed concerns about vote-by-mail processes and the potential impact of ICE presence on elections. She emphasized the importance of early voting and ensuring ballots are sent directly to county election offices due to changes in postal rules and the presence of ICE in Oregon. Andrea Miller, an expert on voting in the Southeast, expressed concerns about the reliability of vote-by-mail systems and recommended in-person early voting where possible. Melissa also announced endorsements from Progressive Victory and the Working Families Party of Oregon, adding to her growing support. SAVE Act Senate Passage Uncertainty Andrea discussed the passage of the SAVE Act in the House and its challenges in the Senate, highlighting concerns about proof of citizenship requirements for voter registration, which disproportionately affect women, rural residents, and people in poverty. Melissa emphasized the bill's impact on marginalized communities and criticized it as an overreach of federal authority in managing elections. Sunny inquired about the likelihood of the bill passing the Senate, and Andrea noted the uncertainty but expressed skepticism about Democrats supporting it, given potential legal challenges and opposition from both Democratic and Republican states. ICE's Impact on Voting Rights The meeting focused on discussions about ICE's presence in various states and its potential impact on voting rights. Participants expressed concerns about ICE's role in communities, particularly in low-income and minority areas, and discussed legislative efforts to restrict ICE activities. The group also touched on recent FBI raids on voting centers in Georgia and the need for stronger enforcement mechanisms to protect voting rights. Paul Johnson raised concerns about government subsidies for AI farms, and the conversation ended with a brief discussion about voting issues in California and the need for effective pushback against voter suppression efforts. Election Integrity and Voting Rights The group discussed voting rights and election integrity, with Lynn Feinerman sharing progress in Marin County where the county executive has removed ICE cooperation funding from the budget. Susie Shannon emphasized that once voters are prevented from casting their ballot on Election Day, there is no remedy for individual voters, while Paul Newman highlighted the need to address private prisons and their role in the criminal justice system. The conversation ended with Andrea Miller announcing her upcoming discussion on Virginia redistricting and warning about new election legislation that would require proof of citizenship and residence for voting. Voter Rights and Energy Concerns The group discussed voter suppression efforts and the importance of protecting and turning out the vote in upcoming elections. They highlighted the need for on-the-ground solutions to combat voter intimidation and the challenges faced by certain demographics in accessing polling places. The conversation then shifted to energy issues, including the transition to sodium-based batteries and the dangers of Donald Trump's regulation of nuclear power plants. The conversation ended with a brief mention of an upcoming art exhibit at Pitzer College. Palisades Nuclear Plant Restart Challenges The meeting focused on the challenges and risks associated with the Palisades nuclear plant in Michigan, which has been shut down due to safety and economic issues. Roger Rapoport explained that Holtec International, the plant's owner, has faced significant delays and financial challenges in attempting to restart the plant, with estimated costs of up to $1.25 billion for repairs and further delays of up to five years. The discussion highlighted broader concerns about the nuclear industry, including the lack of economic rationale for nuclear power compared to renewables, the safety risks associated with nuclear plants, and the influence of political leaders and the energy industry in promoting nuclear energy despite these challenges. The group also discussed similar issues at other nuclear plants, such as Indian Point in New York, and emphasized the need for independent regulation and transparency in the nuclear industry. Exploring Solar vs Nuclear Energy The group discussed nuclear power policies, with Susie Shannon explaining that the California Democratic Party's platform was weakened by removing protections for underserved communities and environmental measures, including nuclear energy safety provisions. They explored the possibility of shifting focus to solar energy as a more viable alternative to nuclear power, noting that solar technology has become significantly more cost-effective than nuclear. Ellen Slavick shared information about her husband's work on a UN radiation study that concluded there is no safe threshold for nuclear exposure, and mentioned an upcoming art exhibition at Pitzer College featuring work by seven women artists related to nuclear issues. Nuclear Safety and Regulatory Concerns The group discussed concerns about nuclear power plants, including inadequate record-keeping, missing welding documents, and the risks of accidents. They highlighted the need to address these issues, with David suggesting buying shares in companies like Holtec to influence decisions. The conversation also touched on the lack of regulation under Trump's administration and the potential for accidents, with Karl noting that extending the life of old plants is "asking for a catastrophe." The group agreed that they are now in "25th Amendment territory" due to these risks and the need to convince policymakers to change course. Nuclear Industry's Public Perception The group discussed the nuclear industry's financial viability and public perception, with Susan Shapiro emphasizing the need to educate the public about nuclear power's emissions and carbon footprint. They agreed to link nuclear safety to Donald Trump and planned to participate in the "No Kings, No Nukes" march on March 28th, aiming to draw 10 million people. The group also discussed attacking Joe Rogan's promotion of nuclear power and connecting with the solar industry to highlight nuclear's cost issues. Vina mentioned working with Veterans for Peace to calculate radiation exposure levels, and Tatanka shared information about a 50-year energy plan by big oil companies to control the world's energy supply.

In this episode of The Derivative, host Jeff Malec talks with uranium analyst Justin Huhn and mining and commodities commentator Trevor Hall of the Going Nuclear podcast about why uranium and nuclear power may be the most compelling long-term solution for clean baseload energy. They dig into the current uranium bull market, how AI and data centers are driving a step-change in electricity demand, what makes the uranium supply–demand setup unique versus oil and gas, and why life extensions of existing reactors matter so much. The discussion also takes its course exploring the future of SMRs and advanced reactors, the realities of nuclear safety and waste, the role of geopolitics and utilities, and what could propel the next major move in uranium prices.

The essence of nuclear governance is safety. That's not only because any accident can destroy thousands of lives – it's also because the harm unfolds over time, affecting generations. It can destroy entire regions, as nuclear radiation can make them uninhabitable for a long time. It is thus a matter of common sense that safety has to be a higher priority than any other consideration -- including energy security.  Now, the Parliament passed the Sustainable Harnessing and Advancement of Nuclear Energy for Transforming India (SHANTI) Bill. It was passed with minimal debate. This Bill repeals previous legislation that governed civil nuclear activity: the Atomic Energy Act 1962, and the Civil Liability for Nuclear Damage (CLND) Act 2010. The new Bill, for the first time in India, throws open nuclear power generation to private players. It also exempts nuclear suppliers from any liability.  Taken together, what do the provisions of the SHANTI Bill mean for the safety of Indian citizens? What happens in case of a radiation leak? And does India really need nuclear power at a time when other renewables are getting cheaper?  Guest: Suvrat Raju, a physicist associated with the Coalition for Nuclear Disarmament and Peace, who has written on nuclear issues for many years.

The Trump administration’s nuclear ambitions raise new questions about safety, speed, and regulatory independence. --- The Trump administration has made nuclear power a centerpiece of its energy agenda, launching the most aggressive federal push for new reactors in decades. Through sweeping executive orders, new federal directives and financing support, and an $80 billion deal with Westinghouse, it aims to quadruple America’s nuclear capacity by mid-century and position the technology as a pillar of national security. But the rapid expansion is testing the independence of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the agency charged with ensuring that nuclear power is developed safely and free from political pressure. As the administration prioritizes speed, competitiveness, and national security, the NRC is being pushed to do more with fewer staff and to prioritize faster reactor approvals, raising concern that safety and the public trust it underpins could be compromised in the rush to build. Former NRC Chair Allison Macfarlane discusses what’s at stake for nuclear safety, regulation, and the future of U.S. nuclear power.

Rachel Maddow follows the reporting on Donald Trump's reckless firing of federal employees who work in the nuclear industry, cleaning up nuclear waste, managing a nuclear power plant, and ensuring the safety of the U.S. nuclear arsenal, and the ridiculous situation of instantly regretting firing nuclear safety personnel but being unable to get in touch with them to rescind the dismissal.

with Brad Friedman & Desi Doyen

The latest cuts in the US Government have been described as a “total farce”. The Trump Administration has reversed the firings of hundreds of employees at the National Nuclear Security Administration, the department tasked with working on the nation's nuclear weapons programs. The cuts were part of a DOGE purge across the Department of Energy. US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking they attempted to walk back the sackings and rehire the workers, but were unable to contact many of them since they'd been cut out of the email network.

Bishop & Taylor explore the disconnect between attempts to remove red tape for house-builders while simultaneously burdening them with ever-greater levels of bureacracy. They also discuss news from a couple of regulatory authorities: the Office of Rail & Road is investigating the deteriorating performance of National Highways; and the Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) is on EDF's case after a series of safety failings at its power plants.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Nuclear safety/security: Why doesn't EA prioritize it more?, published by Rockwell on August 31, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. I'm dissatisfied with my explanation of why there is not more attention from EAs and EA funders on nuclear safety and security, especially relative to e.g. AI safety and biosecurity. This has come up a lot recently, especially after the release of Oppenheimer. I'm worried I'm not capturing the current state of affairs accurately and consequently not facilitating fully contextualized dialogue. What is your best short explanation? (To be clear, I know many EAs and EA funders are working on nuclear safety and security, so this is more so a question of resource allocation, rather than inclusion in the broader EA cause portfolio.) Thanks for listening. To help us out with The Nonlinear Library or to learn more, please visit nonlinear.org

Brandon Munro, CEO of Bannerman Energy, joins us to consider the impact on the uranium and wider nuclear sector of the Russia-Ukraine war as it continues into a second year. Munro sees a bright future for the uranium sector and also talks about the prospects for an expansion of nuclear in Africa and why he sees the Cameco-Westinghouse deal as a good thing, and one which gives more backing for the idea of nuclear energy being part of green taxonomies.And what about those people who are opposed to nuclear energy? Is it possible to change minds? Munro, who has around 20,000 followers on Twitter (@brandon_munro) says that conversations are key - in his experience once people know the facts they tend to be in favour.Never before has one country's military occupied another country's nuclear power plants.

Humanity's survival is at increasing risk of a global catastrophic nuclear event because the dominant strategy for preventing the use of nuclear weapons has not adapted to today's threats. This talk with Joan Rohlfing and Carl Robichaud explores pathways to a better, safer nuclear future, one where humanity's existence and flourishing no longer hangs in the balance, and one that relies on an effective system for managing nuclear technology into the long future – a new nuclear paradigm -- that can't cause a civilizational catastrophe if it fails.  Finally, it makes the case for why the EA community should prioritize reducing global catastrophic nuclear risks and describes how it can contribute to safeguarding the long-term future.This talk was taken from EA Global: London 2021.
