We could have had a clean energy revolution years ago if the stupid fucking tree humpers hadn't demonized nuclear power.
Can you imagine if nuclear power was largely innovated and perfected over the past 20-30 years parallel to the acceleration of technology onward?
Thank the boomers. They regard their destruction of the nuclear industry as one of their crowning achievements of the 60s and 70s
You can kind of get an idea if you look at stuff on the cutting edge, fusion power (which now has a few functional designs and is only limited by shielding technology) and thorium reactors. Those would be commonplace.
costanza.
I wouldn't want to live anywhere near a nuclear plant.
Wuss
Considering diversity hiring, I don't think so.
It just takes one woman out of incompetence or malice to make a 100 mile radius uninhabitable.
They manage that just by being elected to local government.
If that is the case then the hiring rigor must be equivalent to that of someone handling nuclear detonation codes.
You bought into the fear porn of yesteryear. There is very little harm a modern nuclear plant can do, in fact there was very little harm American nuclear plants could have ever done. Surprised you fell for female propaganda of the 60s and 70s.
Agreed. Man made climate change is a Marxist lie made up while the Soviet Union was still around. We don't need to risk a nuclear accident by trying to combat man made climate change.
Who gives a fuck about climate? I just want to pay literal pennies for electricity. Nuclear is the closest thing we have to free energy
Imagine what we could do with cheap to run desalinization plants.
