How many deaths for Chernobyl, Three Mile Island and Fukushima? Would that number change your mind?
- mdorazio 6y agoHow many people with increased cancer rates from solar? Stop quoting deaths from nuclear accidents - the harm from nuclear incidents goes far beyond killing people outright.
- V6HBGNQHU 6y agoHow many people die from loosing power during winters and freezing to death? How many more would that be if everyone was using solar which can't provide enough power in winter?
- quonn 6y agoI doubt anyone freezes to death in the EU, US, Australia, and Canada because of loosing power in winter.
- tonyarkles 6y ago> Canada Oh? I’m in Southern Saskatchewan, about two hours away from the US border. It reliably drops to -40 here in the winter. The vast majority of us heat our homes with natural gas furnaces, driven by electric fans. Long power outages in the winter are a very very big deal, and luckily are quite rare. A few years ago we had one that lasted about 12 hours, and the indoor temperature had dropped to about 7C. If it had continued to drop, the first thing would be damaged plumbing/flooding... followed by people who don’t have a large cache of warm clothes starting to have trouble.

- V6HBGNQHU 6y ago> During 2006-2010, about 2,000 U.S. residents died each year from weather-related causes of death. About 31% of these deaths were attributed to exposure to excessive natural heat, heat stroke, sun stroke, or all; 63% were attributed to exposure to excessive natural cold, hypothermia, or both; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25073563/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25073563/
