James Lerager
Fotofest International Exhibition
Tens of thousands of nuclear weapons have been constructed and deployed
since 1945; some 2,000 devices and bombs have been detonated in 'nuclear testing'. Today nearly 400 nuclear power reactors are operational. Our
governments have asked us to trust their decisions about nuclear weapons and
nuclear power. Yet, for decades, governments around the world have kept their
decisions about nuclear weapons and energy highly secret.
Today the world faces many problems and risks from those nuclear technologies
- from the possibility of accidental or intentional nuclear war, from
nuclear power accidents including Fukushima, Chernobyl and Three Mile Island,
from nuclear waste that can be dangerous for more than 100,000 years, from
nuclear weapons and fissile material (highly enriched uranium and plutonium)
proliferation. Nuclear History - Nuclear Destiny is a global perspective
on the human and environmental impact of the nuclear age,
and has been exhibited
and published widely.
