Gee, now who would think such a thing?
Germany has shut down its nuclear reactors. Yee haw, looks like we’ll be seeing $10 dollar per gallon gas sooner than we ever believed possible.
There's good reason for this: unlike conventional uranium-fueled reactors, LFTR's can't "melt down" and also no longer need expensive cooling towers or the reactor located near a big body of water, which means high levels of safety and far more flexibility in terms of reactor location.
But the most important thing is that China does have large thorium deposits, thanks to the fact the tailings of rare earth metal mining (China is a huge producer of rare earth minerals) contains a large amount of this element. They might as well put it to good use.
Barry led the way for 181 people to buy a Government Motors “Volt”.....now THAT’s leadership....WOW!
The energy policy is to transform the energy use and industry. That is very obvious.
The wackos have a president, an advocate and had a majority in both houses. They have no drilling. They have pressure on miners. They are developing no gas fracking. They have carbon tax via the EPA. They have massive, unknown how massive, subsidies on various green renewable energy projects.
They have energy policy. The author is just ignorant of them.
The islamist´s destruction of America is on track.
Seems to me we should expand coal and nat gas drilling ASAP and build more nuclear plants all places we don't have quakes or tsunamis. IIRC, we've never had damage here in MN from a quake.
Russia and China are cornering the energy market (Russian and Chinese firms are mining uranium and coal on our soil, and drilling for oil right off our coasts). Meanwhile, 0 continues to restrict our energy usage.
