We must confess that our adversaries have a marked advantage over us in the discussion. In very few words they can announce a half-truth; and in order to demonstrate that it is incomplete, we are obliged to have recourse to long and dry dissertations.
Thanks for sharing. The lost promise of nuclear power, which could have been an abundant, safe, and affordable energy source for the 21st Century, is something that future generations may never forgive us for.
"These fossil fuels also required to manufacture the fiat virtue toys (heat pumps, EVs, batteries, solar panels, wind turbines) that out of touch Coastal Elites believe will bring their salvation from Gaia."
Absolutely beautiful. To all of the climate alarmists, my standard statement is as follows:
"If you're so concerned about carbon dioxide emissions, either support nuclear generated electricity, or stop exhaling.....now.
Lets make it short then. It's still easier to reduce demand than increase supply. Plus when you factor in the slurping at public troughs of money thrown by everybody from cities, counties, states and the feds we could have done a great job reducing demand.
Billions of people around the world would like to have access to as much electricity as your fridge. India, China, Africa, South America, much of Indonesia are skyrocketing demand for thermal and electrical power. We should not “waste” energy, but that’s a relative thing. What are you going to reduce? And how does that help when coal power in these places is raising peoples’ standards of living. Nuclear energy, specifically fission (uranium) now has 80 years of use as a power source. It takes about 100 years for the next dense fuel ( wood, coal, oil, natural gas, uranium) to become more economic than it’s predecessor. Nuclear energy is simply about to take it’s turn. So, don’t reduce, rejoice. It’ll be fun.
I'm sure too that mining the product or making MOX fuel has no issues. How much problematic stuff is stored in already deteriorating Holtec casks or in Paducah? For what we spend on the nuclear crime syndicate we could have revamped much of the housing in the USA

Nope. It only encorages the supply side to try and increase demand.

Just saying once again.
