The catastrophic nuclear meltdowns in Japan cast a shadow over the future of nuclear power that was undergoing a renaissance as a possible "clean energy" solution to the global warming crisis. Albert Carnesale, the Chancellor Emeritus of UCLA, Victor Gilinsky, a former commissioner of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and nuclear physicist Arjun Makhijani, head of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research, discuss the future of nuclear power. Moderated by Ian Masters, journalist, author, screenwriter, documentary filmmaker, and radio host.

Hammer Forum is made possible in part by Bronya and Andrew Galef.
