Nuclear Weapons Issues Copenhagen focuses on the moral questions of the development of nuclear weapons. Today, we are faced with the dangers of new nuclear nations. We also have questions of limiting or expanding our own nuclear weapons. We are also rapidly constructing an ABM system. New agreements on limitation and treaties have been made. Is it time for more public concern and discussion on these nuclear issues?
3
Nuclear Power Issues We will examine the dramatic growth of nuclear power reactors since the events of Copenhagen. Faced with global warming from fossil fuels in this century, or their shortages, we examine the possible role of nonpolluting nuclear power. We will also examine other new power solutions.
