Interest is growing to establish an affiliate of Environmentalists for Nuclear Energy in Brazil. Radioisotopes are used in nuclear medicine and many other fields now in Brazil. Brazil has two nuclear reactors generating 3% of its electricity, and a third under construction. Its first commercial nuclear power reactor began operating in 1982. Four more large reactors are proposed to come on line in the 2020s. Source, World Nuclear Association.
