EUROPEANS AND RADIOACTIVE WASTE INRA (EUROPE) EGO SCOPE OF THE SURVEY- Europeans and radioactive waste This important survey investigated a mix of beliefs, knowledge and wishes of a representative sample of citizens of the EU. The survey considered value-based as well as specific factual questions, thus both opinions and levels of knowledge in the field of radioactive waste were investigated. The first two chapters report on how well the European Union population think they are informed about the subject and which sources of information they trust. The next chapter looks at knowledge about where radioactive waste comes from and other factual aspects. Chapters IV-VI investigate reactions to such issues as national versus regional disposal sites, reasons for the present impasse in developing geological repositories and people's concerns about such sites. Chapter VII looks at the level of knowledge regarding current management strategies for low-level radioactive waste in the various EU Member States. Chapter VIII presents the level of people's concern about radioactive waste management in general, not only in their own country but also in the rest of the EU as well as in the Central and Eastern European Countries (CEECs). Finally, Chapter IX looks at a mix of questions dealing with broader nuclear power and waste-related issues.
