Exposing Nuclear Reactions (Part 1 of 5)
A lecture by Dr. Douglas McGregor exposing the lies and myths of the anti-nuclear energy movement. Filmed in 2002 and produced by The John Birch Society.
Douglas S. McGregor, Ph.D., is the director of the Semiconductor Materials and Radiological Technologies (SMART) Laboratory at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, where he designs, fabricates, and characterizes radiation detectors and systems. Dr. McGregor has over 15 years of experience with radiation detection and measurement, semiconductor physics, and semiconductor device fabrication, and he is recognized as an expert on semiconductor radiation detector design, fabrication, and characterization. He presently holds records for semiconductor detector results and designs, and has introduced novel concepts for neutron and gamma radiation detectors. Many neutron detectors developed at the SMART Laboratory are used and tested at the Ford Nuclear Reactor facility, where graduate students working with Dr. McGregor characterize their properties. Mr. McGregor has authored or co-authored over 36 research publications on radiation detectors, and presently has six patents filed on various detector concepts. He has a B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M University and a M.S. and Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering from the University of Michigan. Dr. McGregor has also performed research for the Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratories.

The “Other” Renewables
Environmentalists often refer to wind, solar, and “other renewable sources” of energy. What are these “other sources”? How can they contribute to our energy future?

Energy’s Future
The world need never run out of energy. In fact, technology and private enterprise are poised to bring us an abundance of energy—if government will just get out of the way

Energy for America
We can achieve energy independence for the 21st century without destroying the environment. There’s no need to de-industrialize or sacrifice our standard of living.

Science, Politics and Death
Environmental extremism kills. Millions die annually because of restrictions on DDT, and imposing the “Kyoto” regulations would kill many more.

Behind the Environmental Lobby
It may seem stranger than fiction, but it’s a documentable fact: the eco-socialist movement is financed by the super-rich as part of a comprehensive agenda for global control.

Pressure From Above and Below
Decades of documentation demonstrate that the environmental movement is advancing with a hidden agenda that has nothing to do with “saving the earth.”

It is so sad they …
It is so sad they build these things. They kill birds and bats. When they provide power, they just put another power plant on standby, meaning the power plant still burns fuel but doesn’t provide power. They put the power plants on standby because the power the provide fluctuates and it takes 2-3 days to restart a coal-fire power plant. Wind and solar wont work with our grid and current technology. Investments in solar and wind only increase everyone’s electric bill. Nuclear is the answer.
