Deary me. You do have your undies in a twist. What you say is true, but it's not the issue at hand, i.e. what to do about nuclear power and dealing with its waste. Try reading the rest of what's been written here and and get with the program. If you want to talk about climate change, start a new thread. The ad hominem attack now has you breaking two of the Ten Commandments of Rational Debate, #6 & #1. Tsk, tsk.

Let's be honest. Bloomberg is doing his beyond carbon thing because he thinks it'll make him the world's first Trillionaire. Which I can live with, if it keeps the planet habitable, and we institute a wealth tax.

It's still a framework, not specific policy.

As I wrote below, the Fukushima design was flawed from its inception. Not only the siting of the power plants but the complacency that 'even with a big tsunami, the waves will never get that high'. Human stupidity in all its glory.

That Nova doc is excellent. I need to watch it again.
