"safety, security, safeguard"

title:  "Safety, Security, Safeguard"
date: Monday, 8th August 2011
time: 2:00-4:00pm
venue: BL Lecture Theater 


One intresting thing that i obtained from the talk is the approach that they took to make people to accept nuclear energy. First of all, create a powerful positive public opinion about nuclear so that it will affect the government decision making. Hence, the government will proceed in considering the nuclear as one of the future alternative energy resource. Then, to make this happen we need to educate people to be comfort with nuclear power. Try to change the misconception of nuclear power since they only see the after math of the nuclear disaster. By using, the current technologies and precautions, nuclear incident such in Three Mile Island and Chernobyl can be avoid. 

People tend to scare of what they can't understand for example of what happen when the electricity was first found. People still prefer of using lantern because they thought that electricity would bring harm but with proper handling it can really improve human's living. However, the decision is still depend on the majority. Keep on trying to open their mind so that they can see the picture clearly and not just rejecting the nuclear power blindly. In the end, eventhough the nuclear is being refuse but at least we have tried.
