Summary
It's time to take a hard look at the current technology surrounding nuclear energy. To better understand Ohio's clean energy future, we'll dive into Conley's research into the safety and efficacy of nuclear energy, including small modular reactors (SMRs).We'll explore in plain, non-technical language a simple solution that resolves the bottleneck to the future of nuclear energy in Ohio and nationwide. Conley will quell concerns about low-dose radiation and dispel bad science that has slowed the progress and increased the cost of nuclear programs in the United States. ABOUT MIKE CONLEY Mike Conley is a writer living in the hills of Echo Park, a mile from downtown Los Angeles.Fascinated by science since he was a child, Mike was drawn to the ingenuity, simplicity and safety of the Molten Salt Reactor. To learn more, he became a member of the Thorium Energy Alliance, a close-knit community of MSR advocates. His approach to the brainiacs he’s met through the TEA is simple: If they explain their technology to him, he’ll explain it to the world. His latest book, The LNT Report, is part of that ongoing project.
