The current polarization puzzle originated in 1996, when astrophysicists Jan Stenflo of ETH Zurich in Switzerland and Christoph Keller (then at the US National Solar Observatory in Arizona) used an instrument called ZIMPOL (Zurich Imaging Polarimeter) to study solar radiation at a wavelength of around 589nm.

The Trump 2026 proposal constitutes an abdication of environmental governance and mocks the thoughtful, intentional, hard-fought process of setting up a system upholding public health priorities.

Indeed, it is understandable why people might fear radiation given that you can’t see it – yet the same can be said of the air that we breathe. Despite these benefits, nuclear power tends to suffer from relatively poor public perception and not knowing it is low carbon could be due to a lack of education.
