How Nuclear Energy Works

   Radiation at EACH STAGE




                             home
Fuel Enrichment


Uranium Mining




                                Power Generation

        Waste Disposal   RADIATION INCREASES multifold at
                                   each stage!
Radioactive Waste
• Generated at each stage - Mining, Enrichment, Power Generation
   – Waste from Enrichment has been used in Depleted Uranium (DU)
     bombs used in Iraq

• Even 21st century science has NO ANSWER for Nuclear Waste
  Disposal
   – Waste contaminates (beyond scope for inhabitation) a huge area in its
     vicinity for 1000’s of years


                                              What about the
                 Is it Safe?
                                              Environment &
                                                 People?




                                                                             home
Radiation Contaminates Always
• Even if there is NO NUCLEAR ACCIDENT
   – Around a Uranium Mine

   – Around an Enrichment Facility

   – Around a Nuclear Plant

   – Around Nuclear Waste




               An area of 30-35 km radius gets
          contaminated by nuclear radiation regularly!



                                                         home
Radiation Spares Nothing
• Impacts Vegetation - Agriculture
   – Trees near Jaduguda Uranium Mines have DEFORMED SEEDS
   – Agricultural produce is bound to carry unacceptable amounts of
     radioactive content


• Impacts Animals
   – Radioactive Boars on the rise in Germany (thanks to Chernobyl)


• Impacts Human Beings




                                                                      home
Nuclear Accidents Are Worse!
• Chernobyl : An area of 1,00,000 sq km is UNINHABITABLE for
  20,000 years. FOREVER.




                                                Date: 26 April 1986
                                                Plant Capacity: 900 MW
Nuclear ‘Meltdown’ in the USA
• Three Mile Island, Pennsylvania: Happened in 1979 due to the
  meltdown of fuel rods

• Health effects mostly unstudied or kept clandestine




                                                                 home
Impact of Nuclear Radiation
             on Humans
 • Cancer in the next 2 to 60 years
 • Deformed babies - FOREVER!

OK, If Not Nuclear Then What?

 Feeding Electricity to the Super Power
              in making…



                                          home
Improving Existing Energy Efficiency
• India can save 30-40% of its electricity deficit by simple
  Conservation techniques
    – Improving the efficiency of existing power plants (we are way behind
      international standards at the moment)

    – Decentralizing electricity generation to reduce long distance
      transmission losses


 The cost of implementing these Efficiency Improvement
Measures is MUCH LESS THAN that of setting up New Plants




                                                                             home
Conserving Electricity
• We can save 30% increased demand of electricity by 2013 by
  using energy efficient electrical infrastructure at home
   – Fans, Incandescent Bulbs, Tube Lights

   – Refrigerators, ACs, Air Coolers

   – Electric Water Heaters

   – Computers, TVs, DVD Players, Set-Top-Boxes (active mode)




                                                                home
Use Renewable Sources
• They are Cheap
                                      Spend the millions & billions on
• They are Unlimited                  research of Renewable Energy
                                          rather than on Nuclear

• They don’t Kill

• They are ‘un-researched’

                            America is the world’s largest
                             producer of Wind Power

                 Solar Energy has the potential to
                       feed Earth 1000 times

    Solar Water Heaters in Bangalore save
       900 MW of peak load. Already!
                                                                         home
India’s Electricity Scenario




Government declares
• Projected energy by all Nuclear Plants = just 60,000 MW
   – Hardly 10% of the electricity deficit


                                                            home
Why RISK Indian lives for just 10% of electricity?




                                                 home
The Potential of Renewable Sources
• Latest studies indicate that Wind Energy & Solar Energy hold
  the keys to sustained development!




                                                                 home
The Politics of Nuclear Power in India

         Ever heard of a lucrative
        Wind or Solar Scientist post?
Why is Nuclear Power Promoted in India?
• Current energy policies are designed to benefit foreign MNCs


      General Electrics     Westinghouse          Areva


   Newspapers admit that THEY ARE HERE FOR A $40 BN BUSINESS




                                                                 home
Why is Nuclear Power Promoted in India?
• Profit for MNCs who will provide reactor designs
• Commission for Indian Politicians, Intellectuals, Scientists


   Investment at the
   9,900 WM Jaitapur             ` 10,00,00,00,00,00,000
     Nuclear Plant                         One Lakh Crores only!




              All Nuclear Plants in India offer

                          lucrative prospects

                                        for these Patriots!

                                                                   home
Why is Renewable Energy Unknown?
• Very less or No Scope for Investment (read profit)

• Giants MNCs in the Nuclear Power sector are too strong to let
  the Renewable Energy sector grow
   – And hence, almost No Solar or Wind Scientists




                                                                  home
Why SPOIL Indian lives for their Profit?




                                           home
And Our Government’s Gift for US
• The Nuclear Civil Liabilities Bill by our government says that:


                    Any foreign company WILL NOT be held
                    liable for any nuclear accidents on Indian
                    soil, whatsoever

                    They WILL NOT pay any Compensation

                    We CAN NOT sue them in Indian or
                    Foreign courts




                                                                    home
The World Has Started Protesting

          Nuclear Energy
The ‘West’ is Disowning Nuclear Power
• Most Americans are against Nuclear Power
   – Major concerns:
       • Continuous radiation emitted in normal functioning of Nuclear Plants
       • Nuclear Waste disposal
       • Threats of nuclear accidents


• Australia has never built a Nuclear Power Plant!




                                                                                home
Wondering What You Can Do About This?
• Understand the politics of promoting Nuclear Power in India

• Spread awareness about this massive public betrayal

Nuclear power & india

  • 1. It’s here - the Nuclear Industry!
  • 2. How Nuclear Energy Works Radiation at EACH STAGE home
  • 3. Fuel Enrichment Uranium Mining Power Generation Waste Disposal RADIATION INCREASES multifold at each stage!
  • 4. Radioactive Waste • Generated at each stage - Mining, Enrichment, Power Generation – Waste from Enrichment has been used in Depleted Uranium (DU) bombs used in Iraq • Even 21st century science has NO ANSWER for Nuclear Waste Disposal – Waste contaminates (beyond scope for inhabitation) a huge area in its vicinity for 1000’s of years What about the Is it Safe? Environment & People? home
  • 5. Radiation Contaminates Always • Even if there is NO NUCLEAR ACCIDENT – Around a Uranium Mine – Around an Enrichment Facility – Around a Nuclear Plant – Around Nuclear Waste An area of 30-35 km radius gets contaminated by nuclear radiation regularly! home
  • 6. Radiation Spares Nothing • Impacts Vegetation - Agriculture – Trees near Jaduguda Uranium Mines have DEFORMED SEEDS – Agricultural produce is bound to carry unacceptable amounts of radioactive content • Impacts Animals – Radioactive Boars on the rise in Germany (thanks to Chernobyl) • Impacts Human Beings home
  • 7. Nuclear Accidents Are Worse! • Chernobyl : An area of 1,00,000 sq km is UNINHABITABLE for 20,000 years. FOREVER. Date: 26 April 1986 Plant Capacity: 900 MW
  • 8. Nuclear ‘Meltdown’ in the USA • Three Mile Island, Pennsylvania: Happened in 1979 due to the meltdown of fuel rods • Health effects mostly unstudied or kept clandestine home
  • 9. Impact of Nuclear Radiation on Humans • Cancer in the next 2 to 60 years • Deformed babies - FOREVER! The pictures that follow may be disturbing Jump to Existing Nuclear Plants in India only if you are extremely week-hearted home
  • 10. 40 Years Old Uranium Mines in Jaduguda, Jharkhand home

  • 25. Approximate Impact Area of Nuclear Accidents In India home
  • 26. Impact of Nuclear Accidents in India Can you imagine the massive loss of Human Lives, Forests, Agriculture, Animals, Econ omic Activities? For 1000’s of years! Existing Plants Proposed Plants home
  • 27. OK, If Not Nuclear Then What? Feeding Electricity to the Super Power in making… home
  • 28. Improving Existing Energy Efficiency • India can save 30-40% of its electricity deficit by simple Conservation techniques – Improving the efficiency of existing power plants (we are way behind international standards at the moment) – Decentralizing electricity generation to reduce long distance transmission losses The cost of implementing these Efficiency Improvement Measures is MUCH LESS THAN that of setting up New Plants home
  • 29. Conserving Electricity • We can save 30% increased demand of electricity by 2013 by using energy efficient electrical infrastructure at home – Fans, Incandescent Bulbs, Tube Lights – Refrigerators, ACs, Air Coolers – Electric Water Heaters – Computers, TVs, DVD Players, Set-Top-Boxes (active mode) home
  • 30. Use Renewable Sources • They are Cheap Spend the millions & billions on • They are Unlimited research of Renewable Energy rather than on Nuclear • They don’t Kill • They are ‘un-researched’ America is the world’s largest producer of Wind Power Solar Energy has the potential to feed Earth 1000 times Solar Water Heaters in Bangalore save 900 MW of peak load. Already! home
  • 31. India’s Electricity Scenario Government declares • Projected energy by all Nuclear Plants = just 60,000 MW – Hardly 10% of the electricity deficit home
  • 32. Why RISK Indian lives for just 10% of electricity? home
  • 33. The Potential of Renewable Sources • Latest studies indicate that Wind Energy & Solar Energy hold the keys to sustained development! home
  • 34. The Politics of Nuclear Power in India Ever heard of a lucrative Wind or Solar Scientist post?
  • 35. Why is Nuclear Power Promoted in India? • Current energy policies are designed to benefit foreign MNCs General Electrics Westinghouse Areva Newspapers admit that THEY ARE HERE FOR A $40 BN BUSINESS home
  • 36. Why is Nuclear Power Promoted in India? • Profit for MNCs who will provide reactor designs • Commission for Indian Politicians, Intellectuals, Scientists Investment at the 9,900 WM Jaitapur ` 10,00,00,00,00,00,000 Nuclear Plant One Lakh Crores only! All Nuclear Plants in India offer lucrative prospects for these Patriots! home
  • 37. Why is Renewable Energy Unknown? • Very less or No Scope for Investment (read profit) • Giants MNCs in the Nuclear Power sector are too strong to let the Renewable Energy sector grow – And hence, almost No Solar or Wind Scientists home
  • 38. Why SPOIL Indian lives for their Profit? home
  • 39. And Our Government’s Gift for US • The Nuclear Civil Liabilities Bill by our government says that: Any foreign company WILL NOT be held liable for any nuclear accidents on Indian soil, whatsoever They WILL NOT pay any Compensation We CAN NOT sue them in Indian or Foreign courts home
  • 40. The World Has Started Protesting Nuclear Energy
  • 41. The ‘West’ is Disowning Nuclear Power • Most Americans are against Nuclear Power – Major concerns: • Continuous radiation emitted in normal functioning of Nuclear Plants • Nuclear Waste disposal • Threats of nuclear accidents • Australia has never built a Nuclear Power Plant! home
  • 42. Wondering What You Can Do About This? • Understand the politics of promoting Nuclear Power in India • Spread awareness about this massive public betrayal Jago Re !
