Quotes

Instead, Mr. Grad signed a letter threatening legal action against Tadeusz Pastusiak, president of " Lubiatowo Dunes ", a tiny environmental tourism organisation. Grad's letter accused Pastusiak of spreading lies that would tarnish the good name of giant PGE and could lead to social unrest!"
"An additional 25 countries are either considering or have already decided to make nuclear energy part of their power generation capacity. Most (over 80%) of the expansion in this century is likely to be in countries already using nuclear power."
"The Agency continues to work hard to help Japan deal with the consequences of the accident. Member States are also making serious efforts to implement the lessons learned from this and from previous accidents" noted Mr. Amano
"The reactors (are) cooled by non-explosive helium gas instead of depending on a steady source of water â a critical problem with the damaged reactors at Japan's Fukushima DaiichiFukushima Daiichi power plant. And unlike those reactors, (pebble-bed) reactors are designed to gradually dissipate heat on their own, even if the coolant is lost."
