Meanwhile, hundreds of coal-fired plants were built in their stead, and those are currently spewing radioactive waste into the air in normal operation.

- lispm 16y agoCoal-fired plants were not mentioned by me as an alternative or as desirable. Please stop that. I see that you are confused when somebody has not the view of the nuclear industry. You are brainwashed by the corporations. Even thinking that there are alternatives that are not coal seems to be not possible.
- evgen 16y agoIt does not matter what you happen to think are good alternatives or are desirable, because those of us who live in the real world have to deal with "what is", not "what could/should be." For base electric load in the US you really have three options: nuclear, coal, gas. One produces a lot of radioactive toxic waste over the course of normal operations, one produces lots of CO2, and the other is nuclear.
- lispm 16y agoWhen will the US start with alternatives then? Never? How about some energy saving???
- lispm 16y agoWe hear nothing about the coal power plants currently. The nuclear reactors seem to make much more trouble right now.
