(13,685 posts)Solar is taking over. Nukes are too expensive, too dangerous, too polluting.
Now we just sit and wait for another big explosion. It will happen. The plants are doomed to explode. Ticking time bombs.
Sure, there are a few fucking idiots that are building new plants. Just as there are idiots who still deny global warming.
Japan's economy is being eaten alive by their nukes sitting unused. Here there is no private financing for nukes, it has to be subsidized. Germany is closing their plants and France will soon. Nukes cost too much.
Meanwhile the planet reels from the Fukushima pollution. It is pollution on the grandest scale. It took 50 years for the idiots to STFU about air pollution, it will only take another 2 years for the pro-nukers to be in the same boat.
People are rising up, casting off the lies of the nuke industry and saying no. The chorus is everyday a little louder. The real info is getting out.
