Some degree
of fear is rather normal given the way humans approach
risk, particularly with something like the
risks from radiation, and particularly given
inherent trust that comes from for - profit overlay onto the «common good» and (IMO) laying that
fear exclusively at the feet
of environmentalists, or simply labeling it as irrational, is more a product
of ideologically - driven identity - protective cognition and tribalism on the part
of nuclear proponents than a useful ingredient for making progress on energy policy development.
