UK Public Opinion on Nuclear - NIA Infogrpahic

 We tend to like our infographics here at Nuclear Hitchhiker and it appears another one has recently cropped up on the intersphere. The Nuclear Industry Association (NIA) has published a piece which canvasses UK public opinion on nuclear energy, highlighting some of the concerns and conceptions around the energy source. A trade organisation for the civil nuclear industry, the NIA has conducted this poll via YouGov in November 2013.

I'll leave the infographic below (as well as a link if it isn't clear) for you all to peruse over but what do you think? Do you agree with the statistics? Are there other positives/negatives regarding nuclear not indicated on the chart? Let us know what you think!

 Here's a link also to the NIA website where you can find a wealth of information on a number of nuclear issues.

Public Engagement - Nuclear Outreach

This is a very quick blog to mention what a lot of our members do as part of their course and in their spare time. Public engagement is very important to us as we find a lot of people hold misleading views and are genuinely interested in what we have to say. Why they're interested I have no idea,  maybe because we're young and fresh faced; not ageing academic or industry types with vested interests.
