Film: The Atomic States of America (90 minutes, Don Argott and Sheena Joyce, 2012)

Free - donations kindly accepted.

In
2010, the United States approved the first new nuclear power plant in 32 years, heralding a "Nuclear Renaissance". But that was before the Fukushima accident in Japan renewed a fierce public debate over the safety and viability of nuclear power.

The Atomic States of America journeys to nuclear reactor communities around the country to provide a comprehensive exploration of the history and impact to date of
nuclear power, and to investigate the truths and myths about nuclear energy.
