Isabelle Boemeke, the author and one of Nucleation's featured Women in Nuclear, has already made an impact on the world of nuclear. She has single-handedly brought today's social media-consuming generation to have a much better understanding of nuclear power via her Tweeting, TikToking and extremely creative videos. Isabelle has given TED Talks and has become a very sought-after speaker. Importantly, her alter-ego, Isodope, has been able to speak candidly and collegially to the interests and concerns of a generation of young women who may be surprised at how seamlessly Isodope can weave a discussion of nuclear power and the importance of clean energy into a video with make-up tips.
Most importantly, however, Isabelle has aimed her prodigious talents at saving nuclear power plants, including the previously doomed Diable Canyon. Once Isabelle engaged along with her massive fan base, saving Diablo Canyon quickly became the politically-correct thing to do. She organized the pronuclear community into organizing a rally in San Luis Obispo, near the plant and secured extremely positive press. She didn't stop there, however, and organized a letter to Governor Newsom urging him to save Diablo Canyon for the sake of not reversing our climate progress, signed by 88 leading scientists. Her team also flooded the zone with one-on-one meetings with assembly members and gained political support from key constitutents of Diablo Canyon. Together with allies across the California spectrum, Isabelle successfully helped to persuade Governor Newsom to stop the premature closure of the plant, and a bipartisan majority of the California's very progressive state assembly passed legislation to that effect.
The publication of Rad Future is just one of the latest feats from Isabelle. Along with the publication of the book, Isabelle released 3 minute video showcasing her vision of the future on a planet that embraces nuclear power. This video is just a tremendous bit of creativity and we hope everyone can see it. Fortunately, you can still find it on Isabelle's X/Twitter account or on the Isodope.com website. It looks like this:
