ISBN: 9780593716328 - rad future: the untold story of nuclear energy and how it will save the world (41 resultados)

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. When most people think of 'nuclear energy,' they think of the stuff: bombs, disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima, and cancer-inducing fallout. But Isabelle Boemeke has found that science contradicts this narrative. Plot twist: turns out nuclear energy is our best option for ensuring the future of the planet. In Rad Future, Boemeke proves that nuclear is not just the most effective form of energy production, it's also the key to unlocking even more important and revolutionary technology. What's more, she shows why nuclear energy is actually safe, and how a negative public image paired with a few highly preventable disasters have led us to fumble the bag on the cleanest, most environmentally friendly and powerful form of energy available to us. In this quirky, fun romp through science and history, she answers all your burning questions about the risks (minimal) and benefits (huge) of increasing our nuclear production to power the whole world. And though wind, solar, and other renewables are part of the equation, nuclear energy is the secret sauce that could finally end our dependence on fossil fuels. We have the tools to make our wildest sci-fi utopia dreams a reality. Rad Future is the first accessible distillation of nuclear energy and it will leave you feeling stoked about what our future could be.…

The solution has been hiding in plain sight all along.We're running out of time. Fossil fuels are choking the planet and renewable energy isn't cutting it. The solution has been hiding in plain sight all along.Nuclear.When most people hear that word, they go to a very bad place: bombs, Chernobyl, hazmat suits, radioactive fallout. the stuff of nightmares. But what if everything you think you know about nuclear is wrong?In Rad Future, science influencer Isabelle Boemeke shatters the fear and misinformation surrounding this technology and shows how the actual science tells a different story. It turns out that nuclear-generated electricity-nuclear electricity-is our best option for ensuring the future of the planet. Nuclear can power cities, desalinate water, create carbon-free fertilizer, and heat homes, all with the smallest environmental footprint of any energy source.Boemeke exposes how decades of fearmongering, a few dramatic (but preventable) disasters, and relentless bad PR have convinced the world that nuclear is dangerous when it's actually the key to an affordable, sustainable future. We've fumbled the bag on the cleanest, most powerful energy source we have, and it's time to fix that.This isn't your typical science book. Boemeke's signature mix of humor, sass, and deep research makes Rad Future a wild ride through the science, history, and future of nuclear electricity. From Cold War politics to Hollywood-fueled paranoia to cutting-edge reactor designs, she details exactly how nuclear works and why it's our best shot at ending the climate crisis and creating a future of radical abundance. Rad Future is the first truly accessible breakdown of nuclear electricity, and it will leave you feeling stoked about what's possible. "We're running out of time.
