The Atomic Show #054 – Russian – Canadian nuclear cooperation

April 5, 2007 By Rod Adams Leave a Comment

Shane and I jumped around a bit, but spent most of the time on Russian interest in nuclear power

Shane and I also discussed some of the historical reasons why nuclear power had a tough time getting started in Europe during the 1960s – a big contributor was the flood of cheap oil from North Africa.
