Demystifying nuclear power is taking a critical look at nuclear power generation, a manipulative industry with seedy ties to government entities such as the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in the United States and the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) in Japan. By uncovering nuclear industry lies, demystifying nuclear power reveals the danger of nuclear waste and radiation from atomic energy to people’s health and the environment worldwide. Growing solar and renewable energy technology is a cost effective, carbon-free solution for our energy future that provides safer and cleaner power production than nuclear energy.
Our latest Nuclear Hotseat interview is a nuanced discussion detailing how Fairewinds and Dr. Kaltofen developed protocols used by the community-volunteer citizen-scientists who performed the data collection for the Woolsey Fire project…
Read MoreWe know how to help. We know how to set up a similar program to bring environmental oversight and analyses to needy communities. Now, as we approach the end of 2021, we reach out to each of you for support for Fairewinds Environmental Science Research…
Read MoreIt’s published! One of our findings is that the Woolsey Fire caused radiation from the Santa Susana Field Lab (SSFL) to become airborne and travel as far as 9 miles into surrounding communities. So, then, what makes our study unique? We are proud to announce the publication…
Read MoreWhen Hurricane Ida approached NOLA on Aug. 29th, Entergy’s Waterford Plant deliberately reduced its power level to zero.. However, even when a nuclear reactor produces zero power, it still relies upon electricity from the power grid…
Read MoreGovernments worldwide and the atomic power and subsequent weapons industries claim that almost no one died or was made ill from the meltdowns at TMI, Chernobyl, and Fukushima. They also claim that there are no lasting health or environmental impacts due to these five major meltdowns…
Read MoreToday, as highlighted in a quick post-two-weeks ago, Fairewinds releases the data and links to the Journal of Environmental Engineering Science peer-reviewed article…
Read MoreToday, Fairewinds is sharing several very personal essays and thoughts on our Demystifying Nuclear Power Blog and via Newsletter, Twitter, and Facebook. Several weeks ago, our friend and colleague, Dr. Norma Field, professor emeritus at the University of Chicago, published one of the best overviews any of us at Fairewinds has read about the impact of the meltdowns at the Fukushima…
Read More"... chemical spraying so heavy and contaminating that the men doing it were wearing hazmat suits and respirators, something I only think about in terms of atomic power plants and radioactive waste storage sites."
