The Global Nuclear Awareness program addresses questions and concerns about ionizing radiation and nuclear energy. Questions and concerns that represent personal and global public health, geopolitical and human habitat challenges. A majority of American and Canadian residents live within 50 miles of a nuclear reactor. North Americans are exposed to twice the dose of nuclear radiation they were 20 years ago. All peoples globally live within reach of nuclear weapons effects and potential nuclear contamination.
Are our leaders and our communities adequately informed about the consequences and likelihood of nuclear war? Could our families protect themselves from an industrial nuclear accident? What is the nature and extent of man-made radiation in our environment? Nuclear power is heralded as the solution to growing energy demands while offsetting the effects of global warming and even preventing climate change. This course provides multi-disciplinary, rational, research-based information about ionizing nuclear radiation and technologies and the personal and public risk and policy challenges of living in the globalized nuclear age.
Public Presentations
Wondering how nuclear technology will impact our future, for better or worse? Should we embrace the promise of nuclear power? Or worry about war with North Korea or another Fukushima? These engaging, science-based presentations will give you a broader view of the current nuclear reality and the opportunities and threats we face.
