Just look at Europe

Letters to The Advertiser,20 Aug, 26

It is interesting that those who are in favour of nuclear power have been silent recently.
Could it be due to the shutdowns of power stations in Europe because of the lack of water.

AI has other options

Several writers advocate for AI data centres to be powered by nuclear small modular reactors (SMRs) (Letters, 20/8).
There are two problems with this.
First of all there are no commercially available SMRs.
Secondly, Australia has nowhere to put the nuclear waste.
It will be much easier and cheaper to power data centres with renewables, which are available now.
