NUCLEAR POWER

         Some people today are calling for the resurrection of nuclear power in the United States.  Indeed, even some environmental groups have changed their minds.  They now suddenly believe the plants are safe and cost effective.  This is untrue.  Nuclear power is as dangerous and costly as ever.  Here is why:

 

1. Uranium is always unsafe. It is terribly unsafe for those who must mine it.  It is unsafe for those who work around it to refine it.  It is unsafe to transport it.  It is unsafe in the power generating plant, and it is extremely unsafe to reuse it, re-refine it and to store it for hundreds or thousands of years.  It tends to pollute the air, water and food supply during mining and it could do so during storage or usage as well.

Read Low Level Radiation by Sternglas and other books on this subject for confirmation.  Also, one wonders how safe the plants are if an earthquake or terrorist attack occurs.

 

2. Most uranium comes from unstable regions of the globe.  It is hard to locate and will cause wars over availability, just as we are seeing today with oil.

 

3. Uranium is not a plentiful material and will require tremendous and disgraceful mining operations. 

 

4. The power plants become too radioactive to use after 50-100 years.  Then they must be Òcleaned upÓ, which means tons of concrete poured over the entire plant.  This is dangerous for the workers and visually and radioactively pollutes the earth for literally thousands of years. 

 

5. Radioactive waste must be transported somehow to dumps deep within the earth.  If an earthquake occurs, which will happen from time to time, some could all be released into the air.  This is what we are giving our children and all their descendants for thousands of years, when it is totally unnecessary.

Some of the waste can and will be recycled due to the next reason to stop nuclear proliferation.

 

6. Nuclear plants are ridiculously expensive.  They have to be strong enough to withstand bomb attacks, if that is even possible, and to avoid mishaps that could easily kill thousands and spread radiation far and wide, as occurred at Chernobyl.

The reason America stopped building them was mainly financial, and this has not changed one bit. 

 

7. Nuclear is dangerous to national security.  It can be sabotaged, with thousands of deaths with a well-placed device like a small nuclear bomb.

 

AN ALTERNATIVE – BROWNÕS GAS

 

BrownÕs gas is a special mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, that works better than either of these as an auto fuel and for running all types of machinery, including the generation of electricity, cars, aircraft, ships, trains, etc.  It is made simply by splitting water with electricity.  This process is called electrolysis.

It can be burned in any internal combustion engine without any pollution or residue, except a little water.  Many website discuss this interesting fuel alternative that is available today at low cost, complete availability and that creates no pollution at all.
