Nuclear engineer and author Dr. Arjun Makhijani presents his book Carbon-Free, Nuclear-Free:  Roadmap to a U.S. Energy Policy on a whirlwind seven day tour of Texas.

Makhijani’s information could not be more timely given the imminent threat Texas faces. Energy giant NRG is attempting to build the first nuclear reactors in the U.S. since 1984 right here in Texas.  Other energy companies are planning nine additional nuclear reactors in our state.  Contrary to the current popular myth, nuclear power is not a clean energy solution to global warming. 

In Carbon-Free, Nuclear-Free, Dr. Makhijani details why nuclear power is neither a safe nor cost effective energy choice.  He outlines the transition to currently available clean energy options. 

Share your opinion on the imminent threat that nuclear energy poses in Texas and around the world with Dr. Makhijani at any of his area appearances.

Dr. Arjun Makhijani has published numerous books and journal articles.  He serves as President of the Takoma, Maryland-based Institute of Energy and Environmental Research.
