Show detail Hide detail

Unedited interview with John Spinner, head of Energy Probe, on the subject of nuclear power. Spinner says that widespread use of nuclear electrical generating would be a disaster - that to begin with, using uranium to heat one's house is like "using an electric chainsaw to cut butter". "We have no national energy policy, nor any real forethought", says Spinner; he sees the answer to the crisis in solar, biomass, etc.. Then there's the real crunch - the impossibility of safe waste disposal. He thinks the only hope, and what will happen, is a minor but terrifying accident in the United States (U.S.) that will put the kibosh on the nukes. (Extensive break in tape while Paul Soles practices asking questions). Spinner says that he doesn't know which of the Canada or U.S. systems are safer, because AECL won't release its studies. The worst case accident world be a rupture of the reactor safety vessel so that radioactive steam gets carried over a city. If we choose nukes, we foreclose future options, but he thinks the wisdom of the common people will triumph over the technocrats. <60mn>
