In other words, projects such as ITER in France should only be fully disclosed and discussed with the public after results are conclusively proven. The potential of this energy should be disclosed in as honest a way as possible, while not deceiving the public about the potential hazards involved. Although it is one of the safest forms of sustainable energy, there are safety precautions and potential hazards that the public must be aware of. This integrates Canon #5, which is to "Avoid deceptive acts." Withholding important information can also be considered a deceptive act, which engineers should avoid.
When relating my own experiences and opinions to this, I would consider how I feel about the energy needs of the world and how this affects everybody on earth. Energy is vital if we as a society are to ensure healthy and happy living for all our citizens. So from both a personal and ethical viewpoint, it is important to find energy...
As evidence, I could mention today's energy challenges, such as environmental pollution, fuel shortages, rising prices, and so on.
For my readers, I would then suggest that they educate themselves and find out as much as possible about alternative ways to create sustainable energy. They should also take a critical viewpoint of everything they are told by officials and make sure that they have all the facts about energy before forming opinions. Readers can also get involved in advocacy groups to help promote these ideas to the public. It is important to create sustainable energy sources that are safe and affordable for everyone.
