Really? I’ll believe it when it happens, and then it probably will get less press than “climate change”.

And so as the molten core of the last nuke power plant sets like the sun in the western sky..

We now look to the sky for our wind and solar and the oceans for wave and other new technology to deliver..

No one wants billions of fish eggs destroyed either. But that’s what happens every year with Diablo Canyon’s seawater intake-outtake operation to cool the turbines in the reactors.

Is there a hint of bias on the authors' part? I think so. No complaints about the trillions of fish eggs destroyed by the EPA when they destroy rivers. (Heck, if they can say billions then I can say trillions, after all who is counting?)

My wife worked as a boss at PG&E before retiring, and has visited Diablo Canyon in the past as part of her job. Very safe place, but always besieged by protesters who hate nuclear. Guards there are very on the job with their rifles pointed at visitors to make sure no one causes trouble. Nuclear is safe, and is not causing a problem for fish - far fewer problems than overfishing or toxic sludge coming north from Mexico.

3 people in a line is a “march”?

March? please...

Cost per Kilowatt-hr of Wind and Combined Cycle Gas Plants have an advantage over Nuclear from the research I have done recently, but let that go.

With that said, their is more too it, but a number a scheduled to be closed in Illinois.

So these Marchers really want to do something?

Good hook up with all the Silicon Valley VC / Angel Money crowd and if some of you marchers have deep pockets put your money where your mouth is and get moving on LFTR, aka liquid fluoride thorium reactor.

That is what we need not a March.

Until then, get in sit down shut up and hold on.

They didn’t get the message that three nuclear power plants melted down, the molten cores are release radioactive waste into the environment (tons of contaminated water flowing into the ocean daily), and TEPCO along with other experts agree the technology does not exist to clean it up and so the active release of radioactive waste into the environment is projected to last another 40 years.

This is not to mention the nuclear fuel TEPCO says it blew out over part of Japan which will contain isotopes that have half-lives in the tens of thousands of years? No hope of cleaning up 3 nuclear power plant meltdowns and someone thinks NOW is a good time to “go nuclear?”
