When the scientists is told that he must be more responsible for his effects on society, it is the applications of science that are referred to. If you work to develop nuclear energy you must also realize that it can also be used harmfully. Therefore, you would expect that, in a discussion of this kind by a scientist, this would be the most important topic. But I will not talk about it further. I think that to say these are scientific problems is an exaggeration. They are far more humanitarian problems. The fact that how to work the power is clear, but how to control it is not, is something not so scientific and is not something that the scientist knows much about.
