The Atomic Green Revolution: Harnessing Nuclear Technologies for a Resilient Food System and Clean Environment

Muhammad Mahran Aslam (Author) ISBN: 9781041159988 Published: 24 June 2026 Format: Hardcover Language: English Publisher: CRC Press Description Nuclear technology is re-entering the climate and food-security conversation — not only as a low-carbon power source, but as a tool with applications across agriculture, food preservation, and environmental remediation. The Atomic Green Revolution examines how nuclear techniques, from radiation-based food technologies to isotopic tracing and clean energy generation, can support a more resilient food system and a cleaner environment. The book brings together the engineering, agricultural, and environmental dimensions of nuclear applications at a moment when energy security, food security, and decarbonisation are converging into a single policy and engineering challenge. Key Features Cross-disciplinary treatment linking nuclear engineering, agriculture, and environmental science. Coverage of nuclear applications in food preservation, pest control, and crop improvement. Analysis of nuclear power as a clean-energy pathway alongside renewables. Discussion of isotopic and radiation-based techniques for environmental monitoring. Positions nuclear technology within the broader sustainable development and food-security debate. Coverage Nuclear technologies for food preservation and agricultural productivity. Isotopic tracing and radiation-based environmental monitoring. Nuclear power generation in the context of clean energy transitions. Resilience of food systems under climate and resource pressure. Policy and regulatory considerations for nuclear applications beyond power generation. About the Author Muhammad Mahran Aslam writes at the intersection of nuclear technology, agriculture, and environmental sustainability, examining how techniques developed for the energy sector can be applied to food security and environmental resilience challenges. Table of Contents Introduction: Nuclear Technology Beyond Power Generation Nuclear Applications in Food Preservation and Agriculture Isotopic and Radiation-Based Environmental Monitoring Nuclear Power and the Clean Energy Transition Food System Resilience in a Changing Climate Policy, Safety, and Regulatory Frameworks Toward an Integrated Nuclear-Food-Environment Strategy Why buy this book? As governments revisit nuclear power amid rising electricity demand and decarbonisation targets, this book offers a distinctive angle most energy collections lack: the connection between nuclear technology, food security, and environmental resilience. It is a timely addition for institutions covering energy policy, agricultural science, or environmental engineering. Keywords Nuclear Technology, Nuclear Energy, Food Security, Agricultural Sustainability, Environmental Resilience, Clean Energy, Isotopic Techniques, Climate Change, CRC Press Target Audience Energy engineers and researchers, Environmental policy experts, Agricultural scientists, Academics, Sustainability professionals, Government and regulatory officials Genre Nuclear Energy, Sustainability, Environmental Science, Energy Policy, Agricultural Science Q&A Q: What does The Atomic Green Revolution cover? A: It examines nuclear technologies — from food preservation and isotopic tracing to clean power generation — and their combined role in building a more resilient food system and environment. Q: Why is nuclear technology relevant to food security? A: Radiation-based techniques are already used in food preservation, pest control, and crop improvement; the book situates these alongside nuclear power's role in decarbonisation to argue for an integrated view of nuclear's contribution to sustainability. Q: Who should read this book? A: Energy engineers, environmental policy researchers, agricultural scientists, and academics working on the intersection of nuclear technology, sustainability, and food systems. Q: Is this relevant to current energy policy debates? A: Yes — as nuclear power regains attention amid rising electricity demand and decarbonisation goals, this book broadens the conversation beyond power generation alone.
