*i dont count three mile*
that shit didnt even leave the reactor bulding
"disaster" fukushima?
thats the one that got battered by a tsunami, aint it?
Chernobyl was from soviet engineering and politics.
yeah
majorly underfunded as well
Fukushima being a disaster is a little bit misleading.
*it sure as hell wasnt a normal event*
More paranoia then actual danger for the public.
hell the tsunami was more dangerous.
a earthquake AND an tsunami DURING a test?
yeah, of course something was gonna happen
the radiation from that one has basically cleared at this point as well
Pfft, it was the disel generators fault that the shit got bad.
lmao
The explosion did not even come from the reactor core it came from the disel generator being shitty.
***its the fossil fuel thats to blame***
In this case yes
yeah, most reactor explosions arent from the reactor its self
1 person has died from fukushima (radiation) ~2000 died because of government policy and fear of radiation psycological stress etc.
everything else has been onsite chemicals
The waste is only waste if you do not use it.
depleted uranium is used quite frequently for its high mass
also thorium reactors need plutonium to hold the reaction iirc
*the plutonium isnt really consumed though*
"The waste is only waste if you do not use it."
Waste is just underutilised resources Hahaha
So true @ᚠᚢᛖᛚᛖᛞᛒᚣᚳᚨᚿᚳᛖᚱ
when it comes to nuclear is it soo goddamn true but every goddamn time anyone mentions it you hear "i habe de cancer from radiation boss"; when you could use them for medicine let it rest for a while or put it into another reactor.
Environmental activists: Muh climate
also environmental activists: Ruin entire ecosystems with hydroelectric dams, solar and wind farms.
most climate activists these days are just using it a vehicle for communism
*no shit*
bunch of climate activists arent logical anyway
pretty much all of the politics with climate change is bollocks, left or right
funnily, the first politician to bring up climate change as an issue was the iron lady her self, margret thatcher
btw, in australia we tried a carbon tax... *it actually worked well*
because many companies did the smart thing and just became a bit more efficient
putting thermal skirting on fridges in grocery stores and such
its like leaving your fridge open all the time
the money from the carbon tax was then used a taxcut for consumers, and to subsidise solar implementation
