OKAY GUYS.

NOBODY is going to like this but I am OLD SCHOOL and I am all in favor of bringing BACK the COAL industry full steam ahead.... WHY?

WE HAVE LOTS OF IT. JUST LIKE OIL. RIGHT here in the USA.

WE have WATER and lots of it. Hydro power. Created by water propelled turbines that generate electric.

I am NOT a FAN of either SOLAR or WINDMILLS. IF someone could actually show me the numbers for the electric generated by ONE windmill as to effectivity, I could change my opinion.

WHY do we always rush headlong into changing things that work?? Things that are not harmful, and things we have been blessed as a nation to have in such great abundance?

I am not a big fan of fission either but am aware of it. Very dangerous. Good results when it works right...

However as pointed out, trying to keep spent rods which are KILLING MACHINES seems to be an ongoing problem.

Solar panels are among the least effective in generating electric. Worst investment anyone could make for their home because they produce so little electric per one panel...

ANyway, that is how one older engineer sees it.
I am no expert. I only know that I always have used in manufacturing machinery and methods that were correct and efficient for what we were making, and that was not many times the latest lazers cutting machines, water jets, or other nonsense.
So that is where my perspective comes from....

I guess I am a throwback to practicality and effective use of what's available to accomplish the most...

You like fission? Why, in God's name would you like fission?

The sailors on the Ronald Reagan, which was 50 miles from Fukushima are dying. The fish are radioactive in the Pacific and some aren't reproducing at all. Looks like Europe's having a secret Chernobyl. No place to put the waste. Output is nuclear bombs. Who needs it?

Nuclear accident alert after high levels of radiation over Europe — “Major release” of radioactive material reported; Over 100 Trillion becquerels — Official: “An unusual isotope… I don’t think we have seen it since Chernobyl” (VIDEO)
