Not too surprised Rolling Stone would publish a fear
monger pro green industry piece.
It mentions political rock stars of the green
industry Rep. Ed Markey of Massachusetts.
The fact is Fukushima despite lamestream media tout the
incident as a massive catastrophic nuclear disaster
prompting Japan government's response
overkill by it's treatment of its nuclear industry even as mistakes
have
been made recently over mSv dosages
received in areas for children.
A major problem in N.America is BIG crony business in
particular the hydrocarbon sector including the nuclear industry
itself
(sans any recent NPP nuclear incidences N.
American). It has consistently chosen to favor mega watt,
wet bulb light water or heavy water rankine cycle reactor
designs
over the alternative in small modular reactors
(SMR) which only recently given some light with the ANS position paper . Nuclear
big business is not too
interested in smaller NPP (Nuclear Power
Plants) up-front construction cost reductions or passive safety
features or recyclable spent fuels
or weapons grade proliferated resistant fuel or the
aspect of providing adequate electrical baseloading
or multi-use of SMR's for economies of scale.
AECL or Westinghouse or governments and its nuclear
agencies is really not interested in tailored efficient nukes
it's more interested in selling and training people to
dig giant holes in the ground to fill them with
LWR/HWR spent fuels from dinosaur type NPPs.
