Nuclear Safety in Our Changing World - 11/10/2011 PDF Print E-mail
   With a growing movement towards clean, sustainable energy, nuclear power has become a hot topic lately.  Nuclear energy is a valuable and important aspect of our society and given the recent incidents in Japan, new safety precautions are being implemented at sites around the world and here at home.  This evening will take you through the history and future of nuclear energy in our everyday lives and as we continue our journey into the sustainable energy age.
