Nuclear energy discussion
Why don’t we send the nuclear waste to space And I think nuclear technology
it’s our future
its going to have to be nuclear fission until they can get fusion working.
solar panals. make nice supplements the problem with them would be they
take up to much space. the other forms of energy production really depend
upon your location in the world and windpower itself is a dead end.
yup
Technology is advancing so fast in 10,20 years all this might be a settled
debate and nuclear could be considered obsolete. . However there seems to
no way of harvesting energy without some impact on something or someone. .
What ever you think what reality is that Greenpeace have helped to create
good working practices and have been a positive force in many industries.
4:04 PWNED!!!
We need nuclear as a transition, renewables are not feasible for mass
energy production at the moment.
i agree
we wont hurt the planet with nuclear power the planet is 4 billion years
old, we arnt going to hurt it remember that every form of life is
temporary, and its not the planets job to support life
@macspud28 Yes you are right it is, but operated in a completely different
way to the cool water reactors, but yes fission occurs in both, molten is
much much safer and produces a tiny fraction of the waste of traditional
methods, check it out there are a few good videos on the tube! Peace.
Consume less energy!
Any1 that believes that we need more nuclear plants should b locked up in
an mental institution. We’ve had Cold Fusuion 4 20yrs now. I sat in on the
meeting @ Sanford University after they did a demo. It’s here & nobody
seems 2 care; sad. Solar, wind, & ocean current pwr is cool but Cold
Fusuion is #1 and it’s not mentioned ever. Com’on ppl wake the hell up.
Mother Earth will save herself. She dosen’t silly mortals parasite @ all.
We r blessed 2 dwell here so we should respect this planet.
Nuclear is not quite clean when you have to plan on maintaining the waste
for a million years now is it?
To my understanding (which is limited) molten salt reactors are still
fission.
True.
funney. . . i was under the impression that nuclear power was the best
stand-in until true green power. So the ‘vs.’ seems a bit off.
Well done documentary. I was all for nuclear untill recently. When i found
out that it can be done with solar almost exclusively. This video seemed to
give a pretty fair assesment of the issues. Bravo.
U tell’em they don’t seem 2 get it.
Solar will fail considering there is a movement in Africa where they are
growing food in the desserts meaning less space for energu considering fun
is more important People fail to see the sollutions is not going green or
building taller houses but to start 1 child/family like in China and no use
so much energi
@macspud28 @macspud28 Oh yes I worked my comment wrong, thanks for pointing
that out! Can’t delete it I’m on my phone
not on a planetary scale… the earth is about 4 and a half billion years
old… 1 million is like one day for the planet nothing humans do is going
to ruin the planet… its not the planets job to support life, every now
and then an ice age or meteor will wipe out all life and it starts again
Too bad those solar panels are so damn expensive. I can’t understand why?
If the global warming is such bad and severe thing then why do we have to
pay so much from environmental friendly products? That’s what I wonder.
DOWN WITH THE HIGH TECH WORLD! NOW YOU WANT TO TURN OUR DESERTS INTO SOLAR
FACTORIES & WOODS INTO WINDMILLS???;..”'[[]]##%%@@?? TO LATE FOOLS!!!
Molten salt reactors! No substantial amount of radioactive waste and it’s
walk away safe. Governed by physics instead of pumps, if something goes
wrong the process shuts down, no meltdown threat. The US chose fission over
this in the ’50s so they could get weapons grade Uranium/plutonium 🙁 Such
a tragic mistake.
Not sure how many turbines it would take. People should consume less energy
and either supply their own energy or solve the problem in a regional or
better yet community level. I am building an efficient tiny home and will
be using solar to supply all my power. Yes I will live without A/C and
won’t have a huge fridge and clothes dryer. But if I believe people should
live with less, I have to live it myself right?
wow , next million years to secure that waste, thats very long time
aren’t generation III+ reactors equipped to use waste as fuel?
im all for clean energy , but now because the amount of demand nuclear is
the way to go , dont believed ? just shutdown those reactor and opinions
will change very very fast ,
too expensive to send that much waste up there right now. although
apparently moderen reactor designs can be used to cleanly incinerate waste
fule while at the same time provinding power.
they need to find a spot that will be secure for a “million years”, wtf.
humanity will be extinct long before a million years.
