Sažetak
During the academic year 2007/08 the Department of Applied Physics of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing conducted a public opinion survey entitled “ Energy – The Present and the Future” among the student population of 1439 individuals age 18-20. The tested population consisted of the University of Zagreb nine faculties’ students. The questions in the survey covered several different energy issues, including the present and the future energy resources, the acceptability of different fuel type power plants, the environmental protection and global warming, the radioactivity, the waste issues, as well as the reliable information sources. In this paper we present the basic results of survey analysis for nuclear oriented questions. The participants are demonstrating deep lack of knowledge which results in a belief that the nuclear energy is non-economic, environmentally unacceptable and operationally unsafe source of energy, and the radioactive waste management proves to be the main source of fear from nuclear technology in general.
