Film Screening and Panel: Atomic Bamboozle

Monday September 30th 2024 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Join PSU professor emerita Jan Haaken and the Sierra Club for a free screening and panel of her documentary film, Atomic Bamboozle: The False Promise of a Nuclear Renaissance.

As political pressure mounts in the US to meet net zero carbon goals, the nuclear power industry makes its case for a nuclear “renaissance.” This documentary by Jan Haaken follows activists as they expose the true costs of the new small nuclear reactor designs. For more information on the film, go to https://www.atomicbamboozle.com.

The 46-minute-long film is available on Eventive, free with registration though Sept. 30. The screening includes access to a webinar panel on Sept. 30 from 5-7 p.m. PST. Panelists include:

  • Jan Haaken, director and professor emerita of psychology at PSU; 
  • Cathy Sampson-Kruse, associate producer; 
  • M.V. Ramana, physicist and professor of public policy and global affairs at University of British Columbia; 
  • Mark Z Jacobson, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford University; and 
  • David Schlissel, engineer and director of resource planning analysis at the Institute for Energy Economics and Policy Analysis. 

The panel is moderated by Mike Carberry, co-chair of the Sierra Club Nuclear Free Team.
