Small Scale, Big World: History, Culture, and Memory Hidden in Mini Crafts

The UN FAO has also built many policy reports around this claim. The UN FAO declared 2014 the ‘Year of Family Farming’ with a focus on developing agricultural policies and support mechanisms for smallholder farmers. It later launched the UN decade of family farming, which runs from 2019 to 2028. What the definition of a ‘family farm’ is, is not clear. These farms account for an even greater share of the world’s food supply – one-third (32%) of it. 10 This is because smaller farms tend to allocate a larger share of their crops towards food, rather than animal feed or biofuels.

Building a platform that collects problems, anybody can contribute and be curated by the community. The Small Modular Reactor Research and Education Consortium ( SmrREC) has been set up by Missouri University of Science and Technology to investigate the economics of deploying multiple SMRs in the country. SmrREC has constructed a comprehensive model of the business, manufacturing and supply chain needs for a new SMR-centric nuclear industry. Yu S, Huang D, Singer W, Nikolic D (December 2008).

The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has released a draft white paper on its strategy for reviewing licensing applications for advanced non-light water reactor technologies. The NRC said it expects to finalize the draft paper by November, with submission of the first non-LWR application expected by December 2019. By mid-2019 the NRC had been formally notified by six reactor designers of their intention to seek design approval. These included three MSRs, one HTR, one FNR, and the Westinghouse eVinci heatpipe reactor. In December 2019 the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) and the US NRC selected Terrestrial Energy's Integral Molten Salt Reactor (IMSR) for the first joint technical review of an advanced, non-light water nuclear reactor.

Nuclear proponents have argued net-zero emissions will be impossible to achieve fast enough without relying on nuclear energy. But there’s no consensus in energy policy that this is true: Renewable energy has expanded faster than expected, and as energy storage technology continues to improve, its potential is only growing.

Potential for sub-grade (underground or underwater) location of the reactor unit providing more protection from natural ( e.g.seismic or tsunami according to the location) or man-made ( e.g.aircraft impact) hazards.

Lower power leading to reduction of the source term as well as smaller radioactive inventory in a reactor (smaller reactors). To get to the 70-80% figure that was previously reported, we would need to include farms all the way up to 100, or even 200 hectares. These results shown here are in line with other studies which agree that the figure of 70-80% is much too high. 11 But SMR opponents maintain that no matter the size, nuclear power has unresolved cost and safety concerns. To realise savings through mass manufacturing, there would need to be a standardised SMR design, critics say; currently, there are dozens. And SMRs would also have to be built in large quantities. But for a company to invest in making reactors and their components, it would need a reliable market, and many private investors are still wary of the new technology. Andrew Storer, chief executive of the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Center, which forecasts markets for nuclear power manufacturers, says that as far as supply chain companies go, “We’re advising people, ‘Don’t invest yet.’”
