Japan closes last reactor, 'energy crisis looms'


Japan is set to turn off its last working reactor this weekend, leaving one of the world's largest industrial nations without a source of nuclear energy for the first time in almost 50 years. The government has bowed to public pressure following last year's disaster at the Fukushima power plant after the catastrophic earthquake and tsunami. For more on the impact of the shut-down, RT talks to James Corbett, editor of The Corbett Report. RT on Twitter twitter.com RT on Facebook www.facebook.com

Radiation Safety in Nuclear Energy Explorations - 1962 Educational Documentary


The United States Public Health Service (Division of Radiological Health) in cooperation with the United States Atomic Energy Commission created this educational film in the early 1960's to show the general public the health programs and other activities designed for protection against radiation. Film in the Las Vegas, Nevada area and at the Nevada test site. Many of the safety methods outlined in this film would no longer be deemed acceptable.

Kenya`s Nuclear Energy series2


When you hear about nuclear energy, what comes to mind first? Well, the risks associated in the event of an accident, more than the benefits of nuclear energy. Well, it happened in the Fukushima plant in Japan, after a series of earthquakes and a tsunami which triggered the shutting down of three reactors that were operational at that time. That accident in March 2011 has elicited varied views, on whether time is right for the African countries to adopt nuclear energy. In part two of the series "Tapping the nuclear energy potential," Rosalia Omungo Opondo reports on the renewed clamor for nuclear energy.

'No Japan without nuclear energy'


Despite concerns over Japan's government hushing up the dangers, the second highest-ranking nuclear official in the country thinks the issue is simply too complicated for the general public to come to terms with. RT takes a closer look at the nuclear crisis in Japan in an interview with Hidehiko Nishiyama, a spokesman for the Nuclear Industry and Safety Agency. "The Japanese government tried to distribute or make available all the information we got from TEPCO [Tokyo Electric Power Company] and from our monitoring assistants..., [but ] we have to explain [the situation] in the manner which people can easily understand," he told RT. The Japanese official noted that, despite all the figures on the situation around the country's nuclear crisis being distributed to the public, it is not always easy for ordinary people to understand what these figures actually mean -- how dangerous or safe a particular situation is. "We think that, except for places very close to the nuclear power plant, Fukushima Daiichi, there is no big risk for ordinary people. So we should make them understand that point," he said.

What's Radiation : Nuclear Energy Prof.McInerney 1


What is Nuclear Radiation? Gamma Alpha Beta Nutrons? Really how dangerous is Radiation to health? "Fossil fuel is millions of times more distructive than Nuclear power could ever be." Recent events in Japan have focused attention once again on radiation -- what effect it can have and whether nuclear power is a viable solution for our growing energy needs. Professor John McInerney talks about radiation -- what it is, what it does and doesn't do, and how it impacts our lives. About the speaker: John McInerney is Professor and Head of Physics at University College Cork, Ireland and also co-director of the opto-electronics group at the Tyndall National Institute. Before joining UCC he held academic positions at the University of New Mexico (USA) and the University of Cambridge, and is an adjunct professor at the University of Arizona. He has also worked in industry, both in large photonics and electronics companies and in small start-ups. He received his BSc in Physics from University College Cork and PhD from Trinity College, Dublin Ireland.

Stop Nuclear Welfare


Via The Guardian: "The US is facing a $15 trillion national debt, and there is no shortage of opinions about how to move toward deficit reduction in the federal budget. One topic you will not hear discussed very often on Capitol Hill is the idea of ending one of the oldest American welfare programmes -- the extraordinary amount of corporate welfare going to the nuclear energy industry...".* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down, including comparing this to subsidies for new forms of energy (wind, solar, etc.) along with conservative outrage over Solyndra. *Read more from Bernie Sanders and Ryan Alexander: www.guardian.co.uk Subscribe to The Young Turks: bit.ly Find out how to watch The Young Turks on Current by clicking here: www.current.com The Largest Online New Show in the World.

UAE Peaceful Nuclear Energy Program


The UAE needs electricity to maintain its rapid economic growth. In 2008 the UAE Government conducted an extensive study into the nation's growing energy demands and electricity generation capacity. The study found that by 2020, the UAE's energy demand will rise to more than 40000 MegaWatts -- a rate of 9% per year, which is three times the global average. With the existing and planned capacity to produce less than half of this demand, the UAE was faced with an urgent need to develop additional sources of energy. The government reviewed multiple energy options -- oil, gas, coal, renewables and nuclear energy. These were assessed in terms of relative costs, the environment, security of supply, and the potential for long-term economic development. Nuclear energy emerged as the right choice for the UAE because it is a safe, clean and proven technology, it's commercially viable, and it delivers significant volumes of base-load electricity. Nuclear energy will diversify the nation's energy supply while ensuring our future energy security. Investment in nuclear energy will also drive the growth of a major, high-tech industry in the UAE and provide high-value jobs for decades to come.

Nuclear Energy: Today's Misunderstood Power Source


Entry for the TSA National SciViz Competition Event 2011 By Alise Isaksen, Mitchell Williams, Maria Garcia, Albert Chung, Omar Ahmed, and Derreck Artega NOTE: In addition to the "dioxide atom" error in the script, the animation at 0:30 shows a uranium-235 nucleus splitting with apparent spontaneity. However, this fission occurs when the nucleus is bombarded with an additional neutron to create the unstable uranium-236 nucleus. As soon as the nucleus captures the neutron, it splits into two lighter atoms and throws off two or three new neutrons (the number of ejected neutrons depends on how the U-235 atom splits). The process of capturing the neutron and splitting happens very quickly. U-235 decays naturally by alpha radiation: It throws off an alpha particle, or two neutrons and two protons bound together. It's also one of the few elements that can undergo induced fission. Fire a free neutron into a U-235 nucleus and the nucleus will absorb the neutron, become unstable and split immediately. The decay of a single U-235 atom releases approximately 200 MeV (million electron volts). That may not seem like much, but there are lots of uranium atoms in a pound (0.45 kilograms) of uranium. So many, in fact, that a pound of highly enriched uranium as used to power a nuclear submarine is equal to about a million gallons of gasoline. The splitting of an atom releases an incredible amount of heat and gamma radiation, or radiation made of high-energy photons. The two atoms that <b>...</b>

Exit Nuclear with Consensus and Cash.mov


If we use our existing infrastructure in an innovative way, then we can not only speed up the exit of nuclear energy, we can even pay for it. Costs are converted to revenues. This generates cash and if money is available, then consensus can be reached to put an end to this expensive source of energy. This Simple Show explains how The Blue Economy can be applied to provide cheap and renewable energy with what we have - and a touch of creativity.
