* Chernobyl and Nuclear Power *
****************************************
The upcoming issue of The GreenDisk Paperless Environmental
Journal will examine the nuclear catastrophe at Chernobyl ten
years ago in the context of broader issues of nuclear power,
safety, economics and waste disposal. How real is the threat of
another Chernobyl-type disaster occurring? What is the future of
nuclear power? Submissions of articles and resource listings on
this topic are welcome.
Twenty-three research compendia -- on subjects ranging from the
Decline of Global Fisheries to Environmental Building & Design --
have been published to date. Regular features of each issue disk
keep our readers (activists, journalists and educators) updated
on a broad spectrum of environmental subjects, informing them of
publications and other media that have been recently released,
upcoming meetings and events, college programs, employment
opportunities and new developments in the use of computers for
research and activism.
If you are involved in a project you would like our readers to
know about, please send us a description, press release or
article via email, on disk or by surface mail. We provide an
extensive index of environmental newsletters, journals and
magazines and will reference your organization if you place us on
your publication comp list.
