The News That Matters about the Nuclear Industry Fukushima Chernobyl Mayak Three Mile Island Atomic Testing Radiation Isotope

TODAY, Nuclear power stopping climate change? IT’S THE OTHER WAY AROUND!

Climate change makes the nuclear industry EVEN MORE DANGEROUS!

Bad enough that nuclear facilities run the risk of catastrophic nuclear meltdown. Admittedly, that is a risk for some, but not all nuclear facilities, and it is a very rare event.

But while the probability of such an event is rare, the consequences of such an event are severe. That is why nuclear facilities can’t get insurance

Bad enough that nuclear facilities, even when running well, release low level ionising radiation, which increases the risk of cancer for millions of people. Bad enough that nuclear workers have a higher risk and rate of cancer and other radiation-associated diseases.

Bad enough that the nuclear industry’s only real raison d’etre is to produce nuclear weapons, thus endangering the whole world.

But now we’ve got climate change.

This week’s news carries not only the wildfire danger to nuclear facilities, but also some of the drastic risks of sea level rise- Buried Nuclear Waste From the Cold War Could Resurface as Ice Sheets Melt. And that’s only one of the “water effects” of global heating.

On the one hand – there’s the danger of sea surges, rising sea levels, floods. On the other hand – the shortage of water when nuclear reactors require continuous huge amounts of water for cooling. ( Do they think of this as they bound into the Artificial Intelligence Age, with its plans for huge data farms powered by nuclear?)

It sure is time, as a global human community, that we really took global heating seriously.

It’s also time to put a stop to this nefarious nuclear industry – before climate change puts a stop to it, in a very nasty way.

  1. The world is so polluted by dementing toxins like radionuclides, heavy metals, and other neurotoxins that darkness disintegration and social breakdown is encompassing the most polluted and supposedly most developed countries. It is visible in all aspects of people and societt
