Michael Shellenberger is regarded as one of America’s leading environmental advocates, but his avowed hatred of subsidised, intermittent and unreliable wind and solar puts him at odds with his contemporaries. To the extent that carbon dioxide gas concerns him, … Continue reading ‘Green’ Vandalism: The Mounting Toll of Wind Industry’s Wave of Ecological Destruction
Small Modular Reactors: Pint-Sized Performers Add to Long-Term Nuclear Solution
STT promotes nuclear power because it works: safe, affordable and reliable it’s the perfect foil for those obsessed about carbon dioxide gas - because it doesn’t generate any, while generating power on demand. One of the feeble ‘arguments’ against it, is that nuclear power plants are of such vast scale that they take longer … Continue reading Small Modular Reactors: Pint-Sized Performers Add to Long-Term Nuclear Solution
