"Here is information on the website of the "Nuclear Energy
Institute". . . .[[ <http://www.nei.org/>]]. . . . , a Washington
D.C. based pro-nuclear power information and lobbying group. They
send out a daily free e-mail newsletter five days a week. . . .[[see

attention to the situation with the reactors in Japan, including
making available the latest bulletins from Japan."
For a report on the Japanese reactor situation by the "Institute for
Energy and Environmental Research" (IEER) <http://www.ieer.org/>,

Roadmap for US Energy Policy" [Makhijani (2007)], see "Post-Tsunami

at <http://bit.ly/gs5sTe>: "In a world confronting global climate
change, political turmoil among oil exporting nations, nuclear
weapons proliferation, nuclear plant safety and waste disposal
issues, the United States must assume a leadership role in moving to
a zero-CO2-emissions energy economy. At the same time, the U.S. needs
to take the lead in reducing the world's reliance on nuclear power.
This breakthrough joint study by the Institute for Energy and
Environmental Research and the Nuclear Policy Research Institute
shows how our energy needs can be met by alternative sources. Wind,
solar, biomass, microalgae, geothermal and wave power are all part of
the solution. "Carbon-Free and Nuclear-Free" is must reading for
people concerned with energy politics and everyone who wants to take
action to protect the planet's future." Amazon.com information at
