| HappySqurriel said: The truth about Nuclear power is that it can be some of the safest and cleanest power sources in the world but propaganda based on 1950s/1960s American/Russian styled nuclear power plants ... In part because Canadians didn't have the heavy industry, did not have the enrichment facilities, and were not looking for military applications of nuclear power, the Canadian designed Candu reactor is a much larger design which can use a much lower grade of fuel and is (over all) far safer than many other reactor designs. The real problem with Nuclear power is the time it takes to construct the facilities, and the resistance there is to any facilities being constructed ... If it takes 15 to 25 years to build a nuclear plant and you need 1 plant per 100,000 people to replace our dependance on fossil fuels how many nuclear plants should be under construction today to no longer need fossil fuels by 2030? |
I didn't understand the question, but it's ok. I can't participate in this discution cause i'm not well informed and i am not that interested in the solutions for this (temporary or not) "global warming".
And i say again, i just exposed my knwolegdements about the issue and should have left when the discution started to go outside my area of study.
sorry...
