     There is a shortage of potable water around the globe. Hundreds of million people are at risk. Only about two and a half percent of the water on Earth is fresh. Demand for drinking water is estimated to exceed supply by trillions of cubic yards by 2030. Desalinization plants which remove the salt from seawater could help supply the fresh water that is desperately needed.

Nuclear Reactors 1039 - China Working On A System To Recycle Spent Nuclear Fuel

      The Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Modern Physics has recently completed the prototype for what they call a “particle beam cannon” (PBC). The PBC is a new nuclear technology that promises to recycle dangerous radioactive waste. The PBC is a product of China’s huge investment in advanced nuclear energy systems.

Nuclear Reactors 1038 - New Reuters-Ipsos Poll Assesses U.S. Attitudes About Nuclear Power

      About half of the citizens of the U.S. support the use of nuclear power to generate electricity. The nuclear industry in the U.S. has been in decline for decades.
