Discussion: 鈥淐hernobyl and Beyond: Past, Present and Future of Nuclear Energy鈥�
The Environmental Studies Book Club Discussion Series and Roberts Library Talks is organizing the discussion 鈥淐hernobyl and Beyond: Past, Present and Future of Nuclear Energy.鈥�
The event will start by showing a short video about the Chernobyl accident to reflect on the legacy of this event. We would also like to touch upon the popular HBO miniseries 鈥淐hernobyl鈥� and how its release in 2019 may have influenced public awareness about the Chernobyl accident, and more generally, attitudes towards nuclear power. Next, we will move to a more general discussion about the future of nuclear energy in Canada and beyond.
Dr. Yuliya Rashchupkina, Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science/School of Climate Change and Adaptation at 糖心原创, will join the discussion to provide insights about the historical and political contexts of the Chernobyl accident.
Date and time: October 30, 2019 at 5:30pm
Place: Robertson Library, room 312
All are welcome!
If you have any questions/suggestions, please feel free to contact Dr. Nino Antadze at nantadze@upei.ca
