Remember Fukushima?

[MisterDeadeye 10+ year member]

I'm sure you do. Here's an excerpt of an article about Fukushima:

An estimated 14,000 excess deaths in the United States are linked to the radioactive fallout from the disaster at the Fukushima nuclear reactors in Japan, according to a major new article in the December 2011 edition of the International Journal of Health Services.

After Fukushima, I remember a topic in the dome about energy, and how nuclear is the only possible way to go. It seems that's no longer true. Solar energy may have finally caught the break it needed. Read this.

i dont know probably because im to young. My area dd just get a huge push in wind energy though.

It happened in March, and I really don't know how you haven't heard about it at all. It was all over the media. Bro, you should watch some news sometime..

Seriously, this is pretty big news. No one cares about the planet?

No. Thats the problem. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

It turns out that this hogwash has been discredited. It's just liberal bs. If it were true, that would mean more people died in the U.S. than Japan where it happened. They are counting on you being ignorant mind-numbed liberals so you'll just believe it without investigating or thinking critically. In the comments on this blog there are some decent links: Fukushima Disaster Led to 14,000 Excess Deaths? « Giant Robot

wind energy is unreliable and inefficient. The amount of energy it generates vs the amount of land it occupies will show you that. You could cover the entire US with wind turbines and not generate enough energy for New York.

I think natural gas is here for a LONG time. It is fixing to go up in price too. I heard CA has 2 nuclear power plants still running. There state congress is looking for 500K signatures to agree to shut them down. If those can't make enough energy for the state it is going to take alot of natural gas to replace the nuclear power. I work in the gas industry so it doesn't really hurt my feelings any.

Wind turbines are a joke. They are expensive and inefficient and only exist because the government subsides them. I guess the government forgot that the necessity is the mother of all invention. Alternative energy isn't a necessity yet so it isn't profitable. When they started putting the wind turbines in my area, the electrical company offered to all the residents that they could be switched over the the new green electricity and help save the plantet. The only down side was your electric bill was going to quadruple.

I never heard about that Fukushima **** either lol, I rarely ever watch the news.

I was kind of worried when I couldn't find a link to the actual study... Oh well. At least the solar cell story is real.

What is the solar cell story?

natural gas is all good, except where they pump chemicals into the ground to bust up shale to get it. any other way is fine by me. that's not the only source of natual gas, but it's a big one.
