  • Nuclear Power
    FEBRUARY 28, 2013 | No. 757 NUCLEAR POWER: LOOKING BACK, LOOKING FORWARD (NM757.4292) Last year marked the 20th anniversary of the fi rst edition of the World Nuclear Industry Status Report (WNISR). For two decades the reports have punctu- red the lies of the nuclear industry. Mycle Schneider and Antony Froggatt wrote the 2012 edition and both contributed to the 1992 edition − congratulations Mycle and NUCLEAR POWER: LOOKING Antony! BACK, LOOKING FORWARD 1 FUKUSHIMA PROPAGANDA 4 The predictions made in WNISR-1992 stack up well. After a 20-year period of signi- fi cant growth, the report correctly predicted that nuclear expansion would "slow to a URANIUM MINING ISSUES: trickle". From 1992 to 2012, worldwide nuclear power capacity increased from 326 2012 REVIEW 8 gigawatts (GW) to 374 GW − a 15% increase in 20 years. IN BRIEF 18 The nuclear industry is fi nally catching up with Mycle and Antony. The International Atomic Energy Agency's 'low' estimates have become a more reliable guide over the years, and the Agency's current 'low' estimate of 456 GW capacity in 2030 suggests very slow annual growth of around 1.5% (IAEA, 2012). Nuclear power's proportional contribution to world electricity production will certainly decline. Nuclear's contribution peaked at 17% in 1993, fell to 12.3% in 2011, and the IAEA estimates just 4.7−6.2% in 2030 (IAEA, 2012, p.17). By 2030, a majority of the world's reactors will be nearing the end of their operating lives and the nuclear industry will need to run just to stand still.

  • Functioning and Changes in the Streamflow Generation of Catchments
    Ecohydrology in space and time: functioning and changes in the streamflow generation of catchments Ralph Trancoso Bachelor Forest Engineering Masters Tropical Forests Sciences Masters Applied Geosciences A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Earth and Environmental Sciences Trancoso, R. (2016) PhD Thesis, The University of Queensland Abstract Surface freshwater yield is a service provided by catchments, which cycle water intake by partitioning precipitation into evapotranspiration and streamflow. Streamflow generation is experiencing changes globally due to climate- and human-induced changes currently taking place in catchments. However, the direct attribution of streamflow changes to specific catchment modification processes is challenging because catchment functioning results from multiple interactions among distinct drivers (i.e., climate, soils, topography and vegetation). These drivers have coevolved until ecohydrological equilibrium is achieved between the water and energy fluxes. Therefore, the coevolution of catchment drivers and their spatial heterogeneity makes their functioning and response to changes unique and poses a challenge to expanding our ecohydrological knowledge. Addressing these problems is crucial to enabling sustainable water resource management and water supply for society and ecosystems. This thesis explores an extensive dataset of catchments situated along a climatic gradient in eastern Australia to understand the spatial and temporal variation

  • Prof. Barry Brook − Brave New Climate
    PROF. BARRY BROOK − BRAVE NEW CLIMATE March 2012 Jim Green National nuclear campaigner − Friends of the Earth, Australia [email protected] 0417 318368 PO Box 222, Fitzroy, Victoria, 3065 www.foe.org.au 1. Introduction 2. Energy options 3. Nuclear power and WMD proliferation 4. Ionising radiation and Chernobyl 5. Safety and Fukushima 6. Terra Nullius 7. Radioactive waste 8. The responsible nuclear advocate 9. Conclusion 1. INTRODUCTION This is a review of the nuclear power advocacy of Prof. Barry Brook, a conservation biology / climate change scientist/academic at Adelaide Uni who runs the Brave New Climate (BNC) website. Prof. Brook has over 170 peer-reviewed publications to his name and expertise across a range of scientific disciplines and sub-disciplines. 1 His interest in energy debates stems from his interest in and concern about climate change. He isn't in any way connected to − or in the pay of − the nuclear industry. 2. ENERGY OPTIONS Prof. Brook's view is that "it's nuclear power or it's climate change". Here is a brief outline of how greenhouse emissions can be sharply reduced without recourse to nuclear power in Australia. One of the most practical Australian studies was produced by a group of scientists for the Clean Energy Future Group (CEFG). 2 It is practical in that it makes virtually no allowance for technical innovation, restricting itself to technologies that were commercially available in 2004. It factors in official projections of economic growth and population growth. It stands at the opposite end of the spectrum to studies which make heroic assumptions about technological developments and cost reductions, and those which assume heroic reductions in energy consumption through energy efficiency and conservation.

Friends of the Earth is a non-government, non-profit organisation committed to social justice and environmental sustainability. Friends of the Earth is active at local, regional and national levels and is also a member of the Friends of the Earth International network of 71 member groups, one of the worlds largest non-government environmental groupings. Friends of the Earth has been actively engaged on nuclear issues in Australia for over 30 years. Friends of the Earth is committed to phasing out of the nuclear industry based on the premise that it is an unsafe, unwanted and unnecessary impact on both people and the environment. Over 50 years the nuclear industry has failed to deliver it’s promise of safe, clean energy while in reality continued to generate hazardous waste and entrench the threat of nuclear weapons. Friends of the Earth works toward a nuclear free future; opposing major nuclear developments; campaigning for responsible management of waste and presenting clean safe alternatives.
