After decades of being regarded as too expensive, too dangerous, or (in terms of generated waste) too unmanageable, nuclear energy appears to be making a resurgence as a “green technology.” The backdrop to its potential comeback is climate change: increasingly regarded as a threat to people, nature, and perhaps even civilization, climate change is prompting many analysts, from all political walks of life, to advocate non-carbon emitting energy technologies. With the United States, China, and European nations eyeing nuclear energy in a new light, are we on the verge of seeing the comeback of the industry? Does society want a nuclear resurgence? What might be the benefits and costs? What are the potential risks? Join us to discuss the technological, environmental, social, and ethical dimensions of nuclear power at the 2007 Choices and Challenges forum. |
