Rate this video up. It's linked up to Druge and is getting hammered by those who believe the earth is 6,000 years old and don't believe in science.

1. Nice, I recced it up, but also the longer version, which has more views... Hoping others here will..
watch and recommend it.

I love my state, not tickled about overdevelopment, but love it still.

My county is partly below sea level, and I live on a river and watch the tides go up and down every day.

I wonder what will be left of it by the end of the century.

K and R.

3. It was a great video until all the greenwash bullshit about electric cars and "renewables".
Those electric cars are not the answer, and I'm sorry but wind and solar are nothing but pipe dreams, especially because they both need substantial amounts of coal or gas power for backup, anyway. Nuclear's risks are barely discernible against the number of deaths from fossil fuel pollution, accidents and so forth and that is despite TMI and Chernobyl which are disasters of a sort which really can't happen with the newest reactor technology. Of course, there's a contingent of people here who react with pure emotion upon hearing the word "nuclear", so I suspect they will be here in short order trying to hammer at this post.

Let me help you then: Frankly my dear, I don't give a fuck. Spare your efforts, kthxbai.

Massive light rail deployment and nuclear energy for the win.

4. the same people who hold up france
as such a model country, and so much better, more progressive, more civilized, bla bla than the US eerily change their tune when it comes to nukes.

the "no nukes" mantra drowns out the rational arguments for nuclear with them
