One of the things you can expect from dopey anti-nukes is hypocrisy.
I despise ignorance. I make no secret of that.
Instead of whining about me, you might try to find a single victim of the used nuclear fuel you're also always whining about.
There are still ZERO anti-nukes who can count exajoules, and there are still ZERO anti-nukes who could care less about dangerous fossil fuel waste.
DANGEROUS.
FOSSSIL.
FUEL.
WASTE.
BOO!
Rarely, very rarely, extremely rarely, there is a post from an anti-nuke that makes some sense.
I don't believe electric trains will save the world, but they will help, especially if they are powered by climate change gas free energy. I have long supported the rails, because it is my pleasure to live in New Jersey, where there is an excellent electric mass transit system, mostly powered by
nuclear energy.
You. Are. AGAINST... ...the world's largest source, by far, of climate change gas free energy. And like most anti-nukes you're just whining and whining and whining and stamping your little feet. The anti-nukes are trying to vandalize nuclear energy in my state, because they don't give a fuck about dangerous fossil fuel waste.
They never have. They never will.
If you can fucking produce a single rail system of this entire planet that is fueled by cute solar and wind yuppie toys, you're welcome to do so. But you can't. Like the rest of the anti-nuke crowd, it's all talk. You couldn't care less about
action.
It is absolutely amazing how much whining about civility there is from petulant little yuppie brats who most likely much of their time <em>driving</em> to "aren't I noble and gracious?" happy face pseudo-environmental love-ins. I note, with contempt, that few of them are able to intelligently discuss energy, because they are lazy and get all of their information by googling to happy talk websites.
By contrast, I spent part of my evening going over some recently published papers on the cute biodiesel industry's plans for for expansion of palm oil plantations, all of which were published in the upcoming issue of
Environmental Science and Technology and
Energy and Fuels and a pretty disturbing paper, also in
Environmental Science and Technology on the "reduce phosphate only" strategy for addressing the Gulf of Mexico dead zone, about which I expect you couldn't care less.
Now.
Why don't you have a nice glass of Allen's Coffee Brandy and a few glasses of locally grown whine with a few sockpuppets? You can all cry about mean NNadir is to you because you can't count exajoules, and because you couldn't care less what the world's sixth largest company is doing. I always hear from you guys all about the latest "world's largest" solar station - complete with "percent talk" and watt/joule confusion. And what is the sixth world's largest company? That would be Gazprom, Gerhard Schroeder's owners. With Gazprom's growth, it seems like the payoff paid off.
Heckuva job, anti-nukes! Heckuva job!
Here is a listing of the world's largest corporations:

Of those 3 companies, two, Gazprom and Royal Dutch Shell are oil and gas companies, and one is a "car culture" dependent business, Walmart. Gazprom owns Schroeder, and Royal Dutch Shell and Walmart - chipped in to buy Amory Lovins, because he's a little pricey, even for rapacious corporations.
Let me say it again: Heckuva job, anti-nukes. Heckuva job.
I couldn't care less what you and your fellow cute little Tesla Sportscar enthusiasts think about me. If you must know, I am in deep mourning, because the world spent too much time listening to your paid (off) anti-nuke friends. We're in a world of hurt, and you're still holding your breath until you turn blue because I don't like you because you're one of the anti-nukes trying to hurt my family. And let's be clear. It's
my children who will have to breathe that shit you're selling if you succeed in your ignorant quest to destroy the infrastructure at Oyster Creek. This is no fucking theory. This is my children's
flesh.
You haven't read a single life cycle analysis of energy production in your entire life. If you had read such a paper, you wouldn't be here with your cute little anti-nuke rhetoric and you certainly wouldn't be
proud of it.
Tough shit if you can't handle my anger. I couldn't care less. I am not here to make polite kissy face with ignorance. I am here to
fight ignorance. Ignorance KILLS.
Fly to Maine. Have a few glass of Allen's coffee brandy and talk all about "world's largest" solar installations. Maybe it will make you and your little friend feel better and give you some more guts. Don't worry about the peasants. They probably won't be able to find you in the sustainably managed forest, even when you light the wood fired oven.
