Launch of the 10th "light of charm" Cup National Nuclear Science Popularization Activities Dong Baotong: popularizing nuclear science knowledge and resolving the "neighbor avoidance effect"

On the occasion of the 53rd world earth day, the launching ceremony of the 10th "light of charm" cup nuclear science popularization and the live broadcast public welfare activity of academician science popularization, jointly sponsored by China Nuclear Society and China National Nuclear Power Co.Ltd(601985) and hosted by Jiangsu Nuclear Power Co., Ltd., were held in Beijing on the 21st.

"The nuclear industry is an important part of the strategic high-tech industry, an important support for national security, and an important support for implementing the new development concept and achieving high-quality development." Dong Baotong, deputy director of the National Atomic Energy Agency, said at the event that it is very important to popularize nuclear scientific knowledge, create a good public opinion atmosphere and social environment for industrial development, resolve the "neighbor avoidance effect", do a good job in nuclear science popularization and improve public acceptance. (Note: "avoidance effect" refers to the aversion complex and emotional opposition aroused by residents worried about the negative impact of construction projects, including nuclear facilities, on their health, environmental quality and asset value.)p align="center">

The above-mentioned activities lasted for more than 4 months, aiming to promote the public's participation, understanding and support for the high-quality and sustainable development of the nuclear industry through the popular science activities participated by academicians and experts, and better increase the public's awareness and recognition of the achievements of China's nuclear industry in the extraordinary decade.

Dong Baotong said that under the guidance of the goals of "carbon peaking" and "carbon neutralization", nuclear energy, as a clean and low-carbon base load energy, is of great significance for optimizing the energy structure, ensuring energy supply and promoting the construction of ecological civilization.

Wang Shoujun, President of China Nuclear Society, pointed out that the innovation and development of nuclear science and technology has entered an important historical period. Nuclear power plays an important role in enhancing the country's comprehensive economic strength and improving the energy structure. Gu Jun, general manager of CNNC and Deputy Secretary of the Party group, believes that under the "double carbon" goal, the development of low-carbon, clean, safe, reliable and cost-effective nuclear energy is the strategic need to ensure China's safe energy supply and the most realistic strategic choice for a large country's energy strategy and response to global climate change. At present, as China enters the high-quality, positive, safe and orderly development of nuclear energy, only by doing a good job in nuclear science popularization can the public understand, care about and support the development of the nuclear industry and create a good public opinion atmosphere and social environment for the development of the nuclear industry.

" China National Nuclear Power Co.Ltd(601985) has always regarded doing a good job in nuclear power science popularization as an important support to promote the safe development and innovative development of the company, and has always adhered to positive innovation and long-term contribution to carry out science popularization and publicity." Lu Tiezhong, assistant general manager of CNNC, chairman of China National Nuclear Power Co.Ltd(601985) and Secretary of the Party committee, said that in the future, China National Nuclear Power Co.Ltd(601985) will continue to actively, safely and orderly develop nuclear power, make good use of nuclear power, enable a better life, and make greater contributions to achieving the double carbon goal and building a beautiful China.

At the event site, Du Xiangwan, academician of the Chinese Academy of engineering and former vice president of the Chinese Academy of engineering, and ye Qizhen, academician of the Chinese Academy of engineering, shared special topics on the topic of "nuclear energy and a better life under the dual carbon goal".
