Why the nuclear lobby spruiks about climate change (when they really couldn’t care less) – theme for August 2021
It’s a breathtaking hypocrisy, in this month when we remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki – but the real purpose for new ”advanced”nuclear technology is simply support for nuclear weapons. ”Small nuclear reactors” have no hope of affecting global heating – quite the reverse – as they take funding and human energy away from genuine solutions.
Why does the nuclear lobby bang on about climate change?
Simply in order to get tax breaks and other financial incentives that go with being accepted as ”green” and ”sustainable”
This is why the nuclear industry, IAEA, and all the associated bodies and governments are bent on convincing everybody that the goal of nuclear power is to fight climate change.
The journalists buy their arguments, because those arguments are cleverly dressed up in technicaljargon – avoiding discussion of matters that journalists might understand better, (such as the costs, waste disposal problems, environmental and health impacts)
The essential connection with nuclear weapons is obscured, making everybody involved feel better.

The pyroxene genius.upon us. The kids know it and the.kids are alright
Not sure what you mean.
Unbelievably dark times
Dogs around los Alamos national plutonium pit manufacturung laboratory, only live to be 4 to 5 years old. There is the highest incidence of lung, skin, pancreatic cancer, in the world there. It’s right by Santa Fe, new mexico, the capital of new mexico. People suffer from diseases there that don’t exist in other places. Like dissolving esophaguses. There is plutonium and americium in the water table. Wipp.on the other side of the state, is worse. Massive amounts of plutonium that has caught fire and exploded and will continue to do so.

No one talks about radionuclide pyrophoricity
There have been and are, worldwide, expansive wild fires on All major continents, is burning trees that have accumulated pyrophoric nuclear fallout, over the past 75 years. Bomb detonation-fallout, chernobyl, fukushima and all the other meltdowns and radioactive ☢️ fallout, radionuclides, they lie, about. It is all going back into our food supply, air, and water. It is going into the air we breath, the food we eat, the water we drink. It is making climate change, much worse.
The wild fire areas are doubling in ferocity and breadth every year. There are, wildfires adjacent to major cities and in towns.
The first rainstorm ever recorded, has occured at the.summit of Greenlands largest glacier.
There are probably only 5 years left for humans on earth.
I was in a mountain valley, after a 9000 acre wild fire struck there, this summer. The heart of the rocky mountains on fire, leading to paralyzing floods in mountain valleys, from the loss of the trees, that keep soil and water in the mountains..
House flies are impacted and largely gone in the valley I was in, whereas there are usually significant housefly problems , in the summer. Fly reproduction cycles are the most vulnerable to radionuclide mutation and toxicity.
There were 4 hummingbirds coming to the feeders in the spring and beginning of the summer. No hummingbirds now.
People simply ignore it. It is getting far worse than this pandemic. Soon systems will fail massively. There is other pestilence that is out of hand. People won’t be able to breath or survive because of the heat and smoke. How stupid humans are. Many insect and bees already gone. A mass of insane deluded, gluttous, evil-monkeys.
If trump, were in power , our world would already, be over. He may get back. It is a time of mass insanity. They want to end things in a sadistic bloodbath. The Sooner, the better for them. One small tac nuke will start it. Russians had another accidental, nuke explosion. A several hundred acre, wildfire, is advancing to one of their top secret nuke facilities. The facility has plutonium, bombs, nuke engines that explode so easily. A great deal of Siberia , is on fire.
