GEN-IV programs...and I've explained that the O&G Industry has lobbied Congress...and our President...to "Drill, Baby, Drill" in direct opposition to the path we need to take...NOW. CO2 stays in our atmosphere for many decades and significant percentage NEVER comes out...CO2 "Sinks"...i.e. our Oceans and Boreal Forests are approaching 'Saturation' which will Accelerate Global Warming...which leads us to Wind and Solar.

I am on record that Nuclear needs to be the choice for our electrical grid...but since no new plant will be licensed until ~2030...and it takes several years to complete each plant...we need to employ the 'Next Best Thing' that DOESN'T emit CO2.

Be objective...look at the official data from NOAA on atmospheric CO2 concentration increases...especially compared with the previous 800K years...then Dr. Roy Spencer's satellite global temperature readings since he started (1978) and see the steady...now accelerating rate of increase...then, sea temperatures and level increases. Human civilization as we currently know it, was not constructed to this evolving environment and the disruption can become immense if we don't do our best to mitigate what's happening...not so much for You...but your kids, grandkids, and all those who follow.
