Keep Nuclear Power Plant Open, Urge 79 Scientists, Academics and Entrepreneurs bit.ly/3GxgI27
@slashdot Yup. Anyone who thinks climate change will destroy civilization in 12 years and that we need to completely reshape society but REFUSES to even consider nuclear is not being rational. That kind of person is just pushing eco-religion.
@slashdot yes they just have a bad wrap because of Chernobyl. Nuclear = Grand
@slashdot Will they take responsibility for any accidents? Doubt it
@slashdot What a great idea. Lets keep the nuclear plant that is 15 years beyond its designed lifespan open in the name of green energy bullshit cuz nothing bad ever happens from the nuclear energy production. Its all good but bombs will destroy the planet.
@slashdot Peoples aversion to nuclear power must be changed. There is not a cleaner source or access point for energy on this planet. Educate yourself, don’t be ignorant and then educate the ignorant
@slashdot Who decides to shut down these nuclear plants?
@slashdot Nuclear energy is not that made most present day technologies are really safe. The quantity of nuclear waste produced is manageable. Just keep the existing ones connected to grid, until we can find a better alternative
@slashdot Have we figured out what to do with nuclear waste? If so. I’m in.
@slashdot Yeah. Torium ones have no real reason to shut down ever tbh
@slashdot Wonder if the SpaceX rockets are reliable enough to safely take nuclear waste to the Sun? If so, we should go nuclear.
@slashdot well considering we do not have the capability of supporting a 100% electric society with our present systems we would have to otherwise no one will be able to afford elec.
@slashdot small modular reactors are ready for deployment as well its insane they do not get more coverage
@slashdot Nuclear energy emits zero carbon, causes the least harm to human beings and has the strength to power the worlds needs now and the entire 3rd worlds thirst for advancement. You can’t be fearful of man-made climate change AND be against nuclear energy without sounding like a dope.
@slashdot I would agree, at least until we build up enough other sources to just close them down. Aaanndd don't build new ones !!
@slashdot Safest and the only viable path forward to feed the energy hungry world while reducing the carbon emissions. Lot of misinformation about its relative safety and the storage of spent rods. Desperate need of some PR.
@slashdot Or find a better energy for cars than electric ones.
@slashdot I agree. Everybody’s worried about monetary inflation. I’m personally much more worried about energy inflation.
@slashdot Well, develop them even further so they might actually get cheap and can reuse all the waste that is currently not bred or refurbished.
@slashdot Look what Elon says here that is way more effective. No need fir nuclear plants. youtube.com/shorts/XfTRlJH…
@slashdot Germany is too busy convincing the EU to classify natural gas as renewable, to waste time on real solutions.
@slashdot When all of the smart successful people are demonized, things go sideways
@slashdot I think “we” should find a better solution as nuclear plants. Bit when coal is the alternative we should go for nuclear.
@slashdot We need nuclear energy and we kind a dependent on it so closing it jut because there is a danger is not smart #NuclearEnergy
