Antinuclear

Britain’s leading nuclear scientist has said research into nuclear fusion is something all nations of the world should be putting money into…… Critics say it is another example of how fusion is always only “20 years away” and that in reality it will never be realised. RTE News World, 12 August 13 

  Another decade of what may turn out to be false hope is just not on

Fusion sounds great but building nuclear plants at the rate they are needed will produce a great deal of CO2 and coming when fracking is reaching maximum production that will make matters much worse. Making households independent energy producers with battery powered domestic appliances, recharged with pedal power perhaps, would be a giant step in that direction, job creating and exercise inducing too, that’s if the power companies don’t have the politicians too tight over a barrel of course. MichaelMcPhillip  The Irish Times, 12 Aug 13
