.@moms4nuclear discuss the scare tactics used to sway people against nuclear energy and how they reconsidered their position once they researched the facts. #FueledByFacts https://t.co/AZSLt3EwrF
Despite common misconceptions, radiation from nuclear waste repositories is almost 50 times smaller than the average background radiation from our natural environment. #FueledByFacts https://t.co/VbLHh3Nsdk
“Nuclear energy is safe, cheap, plentiful, clean, and efficient. It has the capability to stop and reverse climate change, while addressing the ever-growing demand for electricity globally.” #FueledByFacts Learn more about Americans for Nuclear Energy: https://t.co/mE1Tgnq78A
Nuclear energy is an expanding industry with a need for up-and-coming talent. Feed your curiosity with these resources for students and educators: https://t.co/pNICk7Bh9f
After 18 years of working at Diablo Canyon, Heather Hoff has become a passionate advocate for nuclear energy, including co-founding @moms4nuclear in 2016. Read her story here: https://t.co/rQctnffvS4
DYK? The amount of nuclear energy you need to power your entire lifetime can be contained in the size of a single hockey puck—including all the waste generated in the process. #FueledByFacts https://t.co/DI0gdwBFbA
Nuclear energy supplies reliable energy when intermittent sources such as renewables are unable to generate. Learn more nuclear basics from North American Young Generation in Nuclear (@NA_YGN): https://t.co/1HH0RBX6UB
A recent study shows that the majority of respondents living next to nuclear plants view them favorably and understand the benefits, such as jobs, tax revenue, and affordable, clean energy. #FueledByFacts https://t.co/dqxXw8zsuN
Savannah River Mission Completion (@SRMCompletion) is working to train new nuclear operators with its Nuclear Fundamentals Certificate program in partnership with Aiken Technical College (@Aiken_T_College). Congratulations to the first graduating class! https://t.co/pMou8DmTsB
Tim Cavanaugh urges leaders to set aside their misguided opposition to nuclear energy and reconsider it as a powerful solution to their goals: https://t.co/twJqvfMNfW @thehill#FueledByFacts
The nuclear industry is constantly developing new innovations. A @TAMU nuclear engineering researcher funded by @NEUPDOE is currently creating cost-effective methods for the development of physical protection systems for nuclear microreactors. @ENERGY https://t.co/ryG9nsgCdB
Nuclear safety is more than technology; it’s a culture created by organizations and upheld by every member of the team. Learn more about @NRCgov’s standards and oversight for nuclear safety culture here: https://t.co/HbslRuY7Px
The shipping industry is a significant contributor to global emissions. To solve this, @ENERGY contracted the American Bureau of Shipping to research #AdvancedReactors for commercial ships. @NRICnuclear@INL@W_Nuclear_News https://t.co/Gy7dtUiQP9
Nuclear transport casks are designed to withstand extreme accidents by rigorously testing two features: 1) internal structure that maintains the separation of fuel rods and 2) external structure that ensures safe containment. #FueledByFacts Learn more: https://t.co/vdClTVB5Hr
Did you know that @UTAustin has its very own nuclear reactor? It’s located in the Nuclear Teaching Laboratory at the J.J. Pickle Research Campus, has been in use since the 90s and is one of the most active research reactors in the country. #FueledByFacts https://t.co/lWLv1KjxSu
With recent nuclear plant upgrades, nearly 20% of U.S. energy still comes from nuclear even with fewer reactors—and equals nearly half of our clean energy production. #FueledByFacts@PopMech https://t.co/tG8uNnXIY9
Nuclear plays a crucial role in the path to zero emissions, providing reliable energy when wind and solar power are lacking. Read more from The Department of Global Ecology at the Carnegie Institution for Science: https://t.co/Ponyo6fjC3 #FueledByFacts
Even with a very conservative and unlikely assumption about a nuclear waste “leak” from a geologic repository, the resultant amount of radiation would be almost 50 times smaller than the average background radiation that naturally exists. https://t.co/EgO5cM0Qs2 #FueledByFacts
Nuclear energy will soon power colonies on the Moon and Mars. @NASA has selected IX, a joint venture between Houston-based @Int_Machines and @xenergynuclear, to design nuclear fission reactors to power astronauts for 10 years on the #Artemis mission. https://t.co/StoHEaG7tK
