What the green new deal overlooked.
"Ain't nothing clean about it."
We've dodged one folks.
Can't believe Hollywood made this.

I've been fighting this battle for nearly 50 years...DJT had better give Nuclear Power all the
support it needs, and not back off from what Biden's done with his bipartisan legislation...we've got to get to that source ASAP...but realistically it won't likely happen until close to the 2040-50 time frame. Meanwhile we judiciously use what we have (and import some)...meaning decreasing amounts of Oil and Gas, plus wind, solar and hydro where their use is appropriate...i.e. where Variability isn't a problem...so that we can save as much FFs as possible (for ALL those uses mentioned in the video). As for transmission, we need coordinated planning with the end goal in mind (i.e. Nuclear as our "Grid Level" source)
That "Drill, Baby, Drill" only meme heads us in the wrong direction...especially when you add in the reality of Global Warming/Climate Change.
I love nukes but petroleum is in “Everything!”
I’m all for generating power with nukes. But we still need carbon to sustain the modern worldl.
By the way… I worker for Bechtel building nukes before I went to law school. We overreacted to Three Mile Island.
Good to know (re: Bechtel)...it's the "Carbon in Everything" that drives me on this issue...and of
course the need for "BTU Slaves" instead of people to power and heat the world's population...it was obvious back in the day of Three Mile Island, but the issues of Safety, Proliferation and "Waste" were not sufficiently advanced at that time....although, my first project was on a Fast Breeder Reactor...a predecessor to the 'GE/Hitachi/Terrapower "Natrium Reactor" being constructed in Wyoming as we speak...sure has taken awhile ("Breeding" is a related issue for another thread).
Let me know what you...and others...have to say about the video below...it's not too long and VERY WELL presented...not too techy...
"Overlooked?" Or, ignored. Or, used for other purposes.

Best show on TV now, hands down. Billy was made for this role.

When I get home tomorrow my girl and I are going to start watching, we saw the first 10 minutes of
Episode 1…. We’re in
That’s a pretty good show. I watched that episode and said “Fuck Yeah” after he
Gave her that speech. I want to say Taylor Sheridan believes what he wrote but I think he may be pandering to Trumps base.
Her reaction to the rattler is the perfect metaphor for the snowflake generation's naivete.
The freeze when staring reality in the face.
Yep. And they make it worse for nature.
