As far as I know there is no question of a ban. If nuclear is not used then coal will have to be increased.

What is a Nuclear Free Zone?

See the following taken from wikipedia 'Nuclear free Zone' The meaning is what the local group decides, but it would certainly encompass being free of nuclear weapons. If a local authority which included a military nuclear weapons facility decided to ban it, it would introduce some farcical scenes, but this would probably not happen. Presumably the local group would not go so far as to ban medical use of radioisotopes. ''A nuclear-free zone is an area where nuclear weapons (see Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone) and/or nuclear power is banned. The specific ramifications of these depend on the locale in question. Many local authorities worldwide have declared themselves "nuclear-free". However, this label is largely symbolic, since most local authorities would be powerless to stop the construction of a nuclear plant if one was planned for the area. In the case of New Zealand its status as a nuclear-free zone is not symbolic but enshrined in the nation's legislation. New Zealand was the first Western-allied nation to legislate towards a nuclear free zone, effectively renouncing the nuclear deterrent.''


What is an example of a common technology that does not efficiently convert energy?

Incandescent light bulbs are inefficient at converting energy into light. They are so inefficient that in many places there is no a ban on the sale or manufacture of incandescent light bulbs in favor of higher efficiency CFLs, LEDs, or halogen lights.


How does a nuclear powered rocket work?

A nuclear powered rocket is a special type of very high temperature gas cooled nuclear reactor. Because it will probably be used in space, it will have to carry its own tank of coolant (probably in the form of liquid hydrogen). The coolant makes one pass through the reactor core, then exits through an expansion nozzle much like that on conventional rockets to produce thrust. Several prototypes were built and tested in the 1950s and early 1960s, but no production models were made as research stopped when the Limited Test Ban Treaty was signed in 1963, which banned atmospheric nuclear tests.


Do the energy saving light bulbs cause headaches?

I'm suprised there hasn't been more of a response to this question. On the 30th August 2009, a Europe-wide ban on traditional incandescent bulbs began its roll out, starting with a ban on 100W bulbs and old-style frosted or pearled bulbs. So, IF these bulbs trigger migraines, then there's going to be tears before bedtime, isn't there? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-505571/Energy-saving-bulbs-cause-migraines-warn-experts.html


If energy is indestructible then why is there an energy crisis?

The energy Crisis isn't a lack of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed, it only changes its form. the energy crisis comes from not having renewable fuel/power sources, the amount of people is increasing, and fossil fuel (gasoline) is not unlimited, if you research how fossil fuel is "made" this will make more sense. The energy crisis is due to poor policies that listen to people outside of the industry for direction. When you listen to environmentalists for policy regarding drilling offshore, you get problems. Problems occur when you ban nuclear power then demand more energy from fossil fuel plants. We could have virtually unlimited power for all of our needs if we had better planning and use of our existing resources, We have hundreds of years of oil left and thousands of years of nuclear energy left. The alternative sources of power may someday become a real power source, until then we must continue to use what actually works and allow their use. The use of hydrogen fuel cells seems promising, but there needs to be further development. People are spending too much time on trying to improve pure electric power and hybrid systems. Hybrids don't work because they still run on fossil fuels. Running on pure electric doesn't work because that has proven to produce numerous problems that conflict too much with daily life.
