Nuclear Power - just in case you still think it is the answer

[jnevin]

That's not so good. That shit hits the ocean and we have nuclear rain and snow all over both American continents.

It'll probably create monster sharks and sharknadoes that will surely fuck CA up. Poor Nef will be killed by what she's trying to protect.

But is it fair to say that it's a very old technology placed in a very high-risk earthquake zone?

I'm not professing to be a nuclear guru. But isn't this a true worst-case scenario?

A nuke powerplant has no business being that close to an active fault line, let alone an area that could be hit by tsunamis. I think when this thing comes to a head it'll be worse than Chernobyl.

Yeah but Canadians have been pushing this to 3rd world countries for years as the answer to all their energy issues. Japan is not a poor country and very advanced, can you imagine this in Thailand or Indonesia?

We have? I need to do some learning.

Nah, adopt my policy

i've figured out that only ugly people need to learn. When you look like this, who gives a flying fk what you know? Balee dat

 

[redsamurai]

it's way worse than they've been letting on. THat company is way in over it's head, this has the possibility to be a global thing shortly. We've all probably already been minutely dosed by it.

That would be a terrible idea in a third world country.

I've heard good things about the mini-reactors they've been working on at Oak Ridge National Laboratories. They claim to have a small reactor that fails worst case into the off state.

Yes - the biggest contractor for nuclear power plants is a Canadian company. They do a pretty convincing presentation on why it is the only way to go. I have sat through it a couple of times and was convinced they were right each time.
