Okay so I was scrolling through the PSL’s info page, and it is stated that they are to denuclearize the power grid. Why is this? I was under the impression that Nuclear Energy is the much more sustainable and frankly realistic source of power–even without Molten Salt Reactors and Thorium based ones.
Im finding it most orgs tend to stay away from Nuclear energy due to fear mongering from fossil fuel industries; Thus its stain in the imperial core, reaching from liberals to western "leftists". But I am surprised the PSL, a radical organization, is anti-nuclear.
FYI this isn't a deal breaker or anything--they seem to be taking the lead for vanguard party--just was curious of the stance on nuclear energy.
nuclear powers are bad… better?
Nuclear powers as in nuclear capable countries? Or nuclear power as in nuclear electrical power?
glowy rock spark-spark maker?
Ahhh, that makes sense.
Glowy danger rock make good energy though! Shove it in a box with some water and watch the funny little turbine spin!
you act like its more than that, but that’s all it is
That’s the point. That’s what makes it good.
the whole idea was that “one day” we could power the whole world with a thimble full of uranium and it will never run out. and that was like right after the nuclear bomb exploded so everyone was kind of afraid of scientists and agreed to their demands for billions of dollars. but we are no longer afraid of them, we know how their witchcraft is performed and we are all ready to defend ourselves against them this time.
Defend yourself against thermonuclear power? What are you? A chunk of lead? I’d like to see you try!
But yes, it is literally the best option we have. A 100% nuclear world is non realistic, but a society held up by nuclear as a base and also solar, hydro, and wind, is the best shot we have at a clean world.
like I said we have about 90 years left until its all gone… so how long is this base supposed to last?
