FOG BLOG RIDICULOG: NUCLEAR ENERGY , THE REAL CLEAN ENERGY??

PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME HOW SAFE , 21ST CENTURY NUCLEAR POWER IS! YES IT , NO DOUBT WITH OUR COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY AND SAFETY SYSTEMS THAT ARE IN PLACE NOW THAT IT IS SAFER THAN EVER. I REALLY DON'T LIKE NUCLEAR ENERGY, THERE ARE AREAS OF THE EARTH THAT CAN'T BE INHABITED FOR 1000S OF YEARS. YES , I KNOW THAT THAT WAS THEN BUT ACCIDENTS CAN HAPPEN! LOOK AT FUKUSHIMA , THAT WAS WELL INTO THE 2000S, THEY WERE'NT READY FOR THE TSUNAMI AND THE DAMAGE IT WOULD CAUSE TO THE ELECTRICAL AND THE STOPPAGE OF THE COOLING PUMPS. WHAT THOUGH IN OUR SAFE PLANT AT LEPREAU IS HAPPENING AFTER THE REFURBISHMENT. IT SEEMS EVERY FEW WEEKS OR MONTHS IT IS IN THE NEWS BECAUSE IT HAD TO GO OFFLINE? I KNOW AT SOME POINT IT WILL GO BACK ONLINE AND PRODUCE ELECTRICITY FOR A LONG TIME TO COME! BLAINE HIGGS WANTS TO GO FURTHER AND THINKS IT IS A GREAT IDEA TO BUILD SMALL MODULAR REACTORS USING USED , SPENT RODS TO POWER IT. GREAT IDEA, BUT HOW MUCH SHOULD WE BE SPENDING ON SOMETHING THAT WILL NOT BE REALIZED FOR 10 YEARS, IN THE MEANTIME, WHERE IS THE SPENT FUEL ROD WASTE GOING! YOU KNOW THERE WAS A PROPOSAL TO PUT NUCLEAR WASTE IN ONTARIO IN A DUMPING GROUND THAT WOULD BE BURIED NEAR THE GREAT LAKES . THIS WAS MET WITH BIG OPPOSITION TO THE IDEA! THERE WERE PROPOSALS TO EXPAND WIND FARMS WHICH IS REAL SAFE ENERGY! TIDAL ENERGY HAS TAKEN A BACK SEAT TOO! I UNDERSTAND THAT MORE RESEARCH IS NEEDED TO SEE WHAT THE IMPACT OF TIDAL TURBINES WOULD HAVE TO THE AQUATIC LIFE! BACK TO THE WIND FARM, THE GREEN PARTY PROPOSED THAT AND BLAINE HIGGS TURNED DOWN THE IDEA! BIG SURPRISE!!!!! WE NEED TO INVEST IN ALL FORMS OF SAFE CLEAN ENERGY FOR THE FUTURE!
