The topic of nuclear ethics runs through the development of human economy and society,concerning the vital interests and destiny of mankind,it reveals the good and evil of human nature and the pursuit of interests.With the continuous progress of human social economic level,cultural level and scientific and technological level,new ethical problems will appear in the development opportunities of nuclear power project.Regarding ethical issues,we should maintain normalization of the ethical construction of nuclear engineering,adapt the ethical system of nuclear power to the ethics of responsibility,and constantly adjust the theoretical content along with the development,so as to make the nuclear power industry develop vigorously and healthily.At Match 2011,the massive earthquake and tsunami in Fukushima,Japan,led to a major nuclear meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant,which has triggered an international debate on whether nuclear power should continue to develop and what to do next.By analyzing the Fukushima nuclear leakage accident and the development of nuclear power engineering in the world as a whole,from the point of view of sci-tech ethics,the development of nuclear power engineering is worthy of support.However,this development is not without conditions.The development requires us to improve the ethical norms of nuclear power engineering as soon as possible,and build an ethical system of nuclear power engineering.The first thing to be made clear is that some general nuclear ethical principles should be followed in the construction and development of nuclear power projects,and these principles should have wide applicability.It also points out that all responsible subjects in the ethical issues of nuclear power engineering include the Japanese government,nuclear power enterprises(Tokyo Electric Power Company),nuclear engineers and the public.After the establishment of the responsible subjects,the ethical responsibilities should be gradually clear.On this basis,combined with the existing problems and difficulties in the practice of nuclear power engineering in the world today,the paper discusses some specific topics that should be included in the ethical construction of nuclear power engineering,and tries to give some suggestions.Through in-depth research on the ethical issues of the Fukushima nuclear accident,a major nuclear accident,this paper analyzes the ethical issues in the accident through the tool of responsibility ethics,and hopes that through timely discussion and solution,the future of nuclear power engineering will be more safe and efficient,so as to better achieve the ultimate goal of seeking the well-being of human beings.
