Eisenhower‘Atoms for Peace’

Speech to United Nations

2008Dr. ElBaradai

for IAEAMakes the same

proposal

So what is stopping the

PEACEFUL USE of

NUCLEAR ENERGY ?

There is a belief by a small powerful minority“EARTH IS OVERPOPULATED”

1798 Thomas Malthus overpopulation theory- ‘population outstrips food production’

1968 Population Time Bomb (Paul Ehrlich)

1972 Limits to Growth (Club of Rome)

2008 Prince Philip... “Everyone thinks it’s to do with not enough food, but it’s really that

demand is too great – too many people”

There is only one barrier to Malaysia & World Going NuclearThe Green environmental movement led for

47 years by Prince Philip’s World Wildlife Fund

They Love Nature But Hate MankindPrince Philip is on record

“If I am reincarnated I want to return as

A DEADLY VIRUS

in order to contribute something to solve over-population”

American Economist & StatesmanLyndon LaRouche (85yrs)

“Prince Philip and the late Prince Bernhard’s stated commitment (is) to wipe out 80% of

the human population, through a combination of wars, diseases and famine”

“If Prince Philip…and Al Gore were to succeed, the population of the planet would be reduced, in the next several

generations, to well-under 2 billion people”

Co-Founder of Greenpeace

in 1970s now says Greenpeace was a

mistake

Dr. Patrick Moore

“Greenpeace is against fossil fuel, nuclear and hydroelectric

THOSE THREE TECHNOLOGIES

PRODUCE OVER 99%OF WORLD ENERGY”

Back to the Stone Age !

Now Active Campaigner for nuclear power

However many are passionate about protecting the environment

1. Solar panels

2. Wind turbines

3. Biofuelsand believe

these are sustainable, renewable

green alternatives to fossil fuels

Solar is a Sad Alternativefor a modern nation

“Solar panels are not viable as

industrial energy sources”“Maybe they are good

for small-scale applications such as parking meters or street lamps”

Dr Nahrul Khair, Deputy Director General

Nuclear Malaysia Agency, The Star 15 June 2008

Leo Moggie Case Study*

Solar power for Sabah50,000 solar panels on 90 sq km land

are required to produce 300 MW electricity*Leo Moggie, CEO Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd, NST 11June2008

By 2028 Sabah needs 3000 MW electricity

900 sq km of Solar Panel Farms (1.3 times the size of Singapore)

This will supply Sabah withDAYTIME ELECTRICITY ONLY

Perhaps 8 hours per day on sunny daysPerhaps 4 hours per day on rainy days

Wind Turbine FarmAlternative energy source?

to our energy picture?”Howard C. Hayden, Professor Emeritus of PhysicsUniversity of Connecticut, USA

WIND TURBINES in Malaysia will be

USELESSfor electricity generation

WIND SPEED IS TOO LOW

Even in Texas & North Sea wind fluctuates greatly

so always needBACK UP POWER PLANTS

USING FOSSIL FUELS

BIOFUELSgreen alternative to fossil fuels

Biofuels are largely produced from HUMAN FOOD

CORN, SUGAR CANE, PALM OIL but Biofuels consume more energy to farm

& process than they produce as fuel!1 tankful of ethanol from corn will feed

1 person for 1 yearBiofuels destroy food for 500 million people

With the Nuclear Renaissance a whole new world becomes

possible

all the pent-up technology of the last 50 years can

now be exploited

1. Implement transition to

NUCLEAR ELECTRICITY 15 year program

nuclear scholarships and mentoring by 1970s nuclear scientists & engineers

2. PRIVATE TRANSPORT

But it is running out and is better used for chemical feedstock

2. Reduce Petrol dependency for Private Vehicles

Is it feasible toCHANGE TO NATURAL GAS ?

Encourage conversion to gas cars(Malaysia has more gas than oil)

Until nuclear electricity and hydrogen comes on stream

4. Role of Nuclear desalinated water

Doubling World Food Production

Agriculture in most countries relies on underground water

from previous ice-ages‘Fossil water’ fast depleting

Impossible to feed the worldWithout Nuclear Power

World agriculture has depended for 200 yrs

on underground fossil water from ice ages

water fast running out

ONLY solution-Nuclear Desalinated Water

Human food (corn, wheat) increasingly fed to grass eating animals

Cows, beef cattle, sheep

A sad history of Food Production

Malaya-Malaysia has NEVER in 500 years

produced more than half its food

The Malaysian Irony

Malaysia has developed the agricultural capacity to produce

60% of the world’s Palm Oil

YetCannot feed its own tiny population

of 27 million ! (in the world economic collapse we face ‘Japanese Occupation’ type starvation)

World food crisis is now recognised

But Malaysia grossly under estimates

the problemIt cannot be fixed

simply by

increasing RICE productionwww.mohdpeterdavis.com

Malaysia Is 100% Dependent on Wheat & Corn ImportsWITHOUT WHEAT IMPORTS

(for bread, roti canai cakes etc)

we loose half our carbohydrate diet

WITHOUT CORN IMPORTS

we loose in 2 weeks our

Chicken, egg and pork industries

and left only with fish

“Malaysia produces ONLY HALF of its current food consumption

using its own resources”“ In the world economic melt down

Malaysia will face

mass starvation far worse than the

Japanese Occupation”March 2002 National Conference

Mohd Peter Davis & Makhdzir Mardan, UPM

Malaysia Food Self Sufficiencywithout imports or exports

• Bread, roti canai etc 0%• Milk 1%• Beef, Mutton, Pork 4%• Chicken & Eggs 5%• Vegetables 45% • Rice 70%• Fruits 90%• Palm Oil and Fish 100%

traditional kampung diet but willonly feed HALF THE POPULATION

Malaysia’s new agriculturalbreakthroughCombined with

nuclear desalinated water

Can dramatically increase
