- rectang 5y agoOh, come on. Give me a break with the lazy "citation needed" comment. I'm not going to go hunt up a reference to a paper which reasons that compared with wind and solar rays constantly around us, nuclear fuel rods are inherently dangerous, nor that a dammed river is inherently dangerous because the dam may burst. I expect people to be able to reason about such things themselves.
- CRConrad 5y agoIt's not as if windmills and solar panels are risk-free: If nothing else, they can fall over and crush people. Sure, they're smaller and lighter, so fewer people at a time; but that are a lot more of them, so many more chances for one to fall over.
