Special Eurobarometer 324: Europeans and Nuclear Safety

Directorate General for Energy and Transport, Directorate for Nuclear Energy launched this Eurobarometer study of European public opinion on nuclear safety. It follows two former studies on radioactive waste carried out in 2005 and 2001 and one survey on nuclear safety conducted in October-November 2006. This survey covers both the wider theme of nuclear issues in general and the topic of nuclear safety in particular.
The energy challenges of the European Union are many. It is essential for the EU to respond to:
a) An increasing energy demand;
b) The need to diversify and ensure energy supply at reasonable prices;
c) Meeting the commitments related to greenhouse gas emissions.

The results by volumes are distributed as follows:
