I know it has sourcing and mining issues but we know
safe open crowd reviewed plant designs and open
inspections are possible for those bold enough to
set aside secret corp profit bullshit, and obviously there
are zero emissions, except for waste. And maybe
similar source reserve timescales as hydrocarbon fuels.

The issues I have with nuclear energy, are that when things go wrong...
they go *really* wrong. Sure, they may not fail as often as they used
to, but that doesn't mean shit isn't going to *really* go sideways when
it does.

Seriously, the Fukushima disaster makes the Exxon Valdez and Deepwater
Horizon incidents look like a few guys pissed in the ocean. Nom nom nom
radioactive fish...


   Sigh... Don't forget about the thousands of abandoned capped-off wells
   in the Gulf with deteriorated concrete casing leaking continually and
   unchecked (map and more on request)
   But about Nuclear Power...
   Just in, radioactive water plume hits West Coast:
   No danger seen from Fukushima 'fingerprint' on US West Coast

   But that report isn't REALLY 'breaking'. That report is based on Woods
   Hole findings it took a YEAR for CSM to get around to:

   And thanks for all the radioactive tuna, too.

   No matter ... since everything but the Southern Ocean is fished out.
   90% of the 'food fish' are gone, and that 'whitefish' in your
   fishsticks/patties/etc. is whatever they can find with white flesh...
   Off the coast of Chile.
   Ps. Peak Farming per Scientific American. Sixty Year until Soylent
   Green is reality.

   Fuck the kids. Just give 'em an iphone, PokemonGo and tell 'em to stfu.
