Is the IRS willing to let companies make payments of the tax over years? Would would the IRS want to put companies out of business?

THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT FOR NUCLEAR for powering a country with low CO2 electricity. All the countries with the the lowest CO2 per kWh of electricity generated use nuclear and/or hydro. That isn't an accident. Germans just refuse

Then why is Germany emitting 6 times the CO2 per kWh than France is?

Your concern over the risks of nuclear energy should be inversely proportional to how severe you think the risk of climate change caused by CO2 emissions is going to be.

Obviously that you should have replaced all coal and gas with nuclear. That is why France emits 1/6 the CO2 per kWh as Germany does.

Watching Germany do anything related to nuclear energy or waste is like the people in in infomercials failing to do very basic tasks. Get your act together.

The risk of climate change is approximately infinite times worse than any risk of deeply buried nuclear waste.

Why is germany being so incredibly stupid about this?

Exactly, Germany shutting down nuclear reactors and burning a huge amount of coal is like a person saying they are extremely opposed to anabolic steroids but winning Mr Olympia 5 times.

Shutting down nuclear energy doesn't change the fact of Germany's investment in renewables but it DOES make it pretty pointless. They spent hundreds of billions of dollars to achieve zero reduction in CO2 per kWh.

Nuclear is a MUCH better alternative to coal, which Germany still gets about 1/3 of its electricity from. It would have made a LOT more sense to replace all coal electricity with nuclear.

Are they celebrating the fact that Germany emits 6 times more CO2 per kWh than France? They should be ashamed of themselves.

Worrying about the 'risk' of nuclear waste while we emit so much CO2 into the atmosphere is like worrying about a hangnail while you have a huge tumor on your neck. Modern reactors have very thick containment shells and have zero

Climate change activists opposing nuclear energy is like firefighters opposing water.

by HyperSane 3y ago
Opposing nuclear energy is the same as supporting climate change because the only alternative to nuclear base load is coal or gas. This is why Germany emits 6 times more CO2 per kWh than France. If humanity was sane and rational we would h

This is a solved problem. You bury the waste deep underground, preferably after reprocessing it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onkalo_spent_nuclear_fuel_repo...

Shutting down nuclear reactors while building more coal power plants is incredibly stupid. Germany emits 6 times more CO2 per kWh than France.

That jailing a very small number of naughty people would drastically reduce crime.

Penalties should double for every repeat crime committed, both in terms of fines and prison time.

The GOP may try to bluff about not raising the debt limit to try to get what they want but I believe the rich people who really run the country understand just how bad not raising the debt limit would be and won't let it happen.

The US also built at least one nuclear reactor and never used it.

Coal contains between 1 to 10 ppm of uranium. Globally about 8 billion tonnes of coal is burned every year to generate electricity. Thus between 8 thousand and 80 thousand tonnes of Uranium is emitted into the atmosphere every year.

The Greens fervent opposition to nuclear is a pretty big reason for why it was so unpopular in Germany.

As a result of this Germany emits about 6 times as much CO2 per kWh as France.

Nuclear is the ONLY gigawatt scale dispatchable very low carbon source of electricity humans have at the moment, other than hydroelectric damns but we have used up pretty much all available capacity. If you refuse to use it then you are goi
