Gegen menschliches Versagen in Atomkraftwerken ist kein Kraut gewachsen. Zu diesem Schluss kommt eine aktuelle Studie, welche das deutsche Öko-Institut im Auftrag von Greenpeace verfasst hat. An der heutigen Pressekonferenz präsentierte Greenpeace zudem eine neue Website zum Thema. In letzter Zeit ist die Welt ein paar mal haarscharf an einem Atomunfall vorbeigekommen. Menschliches Versagen im AKW ist jederzeit auch in der Schweiz möglich – denn Irren ist menschlich und nicht vermeidbar.

Nuclear Campaign Press Conference on the Risks of Human Error in Zurich

There is not much you can do to prevent human error in nuclear power plants. This is the conclusion of a recent study, which the German Eco-Institute has done on behalf of Greenpeace. At today's press conference, Greenpeace also presented a new website on the topic. Human error in nuclear power plants is always possible, also in Switzerland - because mistakes are a natural human attribute and unavoidable. But in nuclear power plants, mistakes can take the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. Therefore this subject is often discussed behind closed doors. But now, for the first time, the Eco-Institute Darmstadt has executed a recent study with a critical vision. The result is worrying.
