My biggest worry is I heard a quote from someone in the administration (I think it was President Bush although I am not positive) while visiting an upgraded nuke facility and saying now this plant is "completely safe". Sounds a lot like saying a ship is "unsinkable"! Also we still don't know what to do with the waste.
If we would have spent $400 billion giving away solar panels (instead of wasting it in Iraq) to every home in America (or at least giving MAJOR tax breaks) I bet our carbon footprint would be greatly reduced and the R&D push in the solar industry would improve efficency 10 fold and reduce costs.
you should do some fact checking about nuclear energy. more people have died from coal mining than nuclear plant disasters.
interestingly enough, it is the same environmentalists who made us stop using nuclear energy who now demand we stop using the sources of energy they forced us to use in the first place!
If you think there is a safe way to dispose of nuclear waste for however many millennia necessary for the radiation to wear off, there's a 50-year-old Plymouth Belvedere in Tulsa, Oklahoma I'd like to sell you.
well you know, congresswoman jean schmidt tried to propose the piketon nuclear waste recycling facility, and her opponents jumped all over it without understanding what the benefits could have been. personally, id rather recycle nuclear waste than store 100% of it in a mountain in nevada, but apparently thats what her opponents would prefer to have. the plant in piketon would have also reduced the amount of radiation of the waste, but hey, if playing politics is more important than national security and fixing the energy crisis, i guess there is nothing we can do, right?
