US Nuclear Regulator Opposes European Moves to Tighten Nuclear Safety Post-Fukushima

7. I think you have missed the point of what is dying because of the wishful thinking about...

... so called "renewable energy."

What is dying is the planetary atmosphere. I note that while burning gas and coal to post nonsense about the solar and wind industry, its adherents almost never open the data page at Mauna Loa to check on CO₂ levels.

This is because they are all, every single one, in some kind of narcotic haze of wishful thinking and day dreaming.

Defenders of the expensive, failed, and essentially useless wind and solar energy industries, which have yet to produce five exajoules of the 560 exajoules of energy now being consumed on this planet talk really really big and deliver really really really small.

Their ignorance of history is roughly comparable to their ignorance of science.

What country in Europe essentially shut all of its coal facilities but one, this decades ago? Any idea? Clueless again?

The fastest growing sources of delivered energy on this planet are not wind and solar. They are coal and gas. Congratulations.

Your comments about China are also clueless. I note, with due contempt, that a significant portion of the Chinese rice crop is now contaminated by cadmium. The solar industry is not only useless, it's pretty damned dirty as well.

You will be dead, I will be dead, and everyone reading this post will be dead before the solar industry becomes a significant source of commercial energy. This was true in 1976 when the moron Amory Lovins was saying solar will be significant, and its true as well in 2015.

Have a nice day.
