Nuclear Delusions

With record flooding on the shores of the Great Lakes Basin, scientists are lamenting that the lakes themselves have been heading for “empty” since the 1990’s.  They want you to believe that the flood deluge cannot keep up with evaporation caused by … you guessed it … Global Warming.

Nobody wants to admit that GIANT “one percent efficient” nuclear power plants line the shores and every one of them has an easily measurable and substantial heating effect on lake water.  Too many nuclear plants are cooled by water from the Great Lakes.

It’s a monumental tragedy.  Want to do something to help?  Stop bitching and start lobbying to shut down a nuclear plant.  If we could shut them all down the lakes would go past flood stage overnight.  The downside?  Your power would also go off.  So let’s be practical here.  You can begin by simply turning off a light.

First we had nuclear power.

Now nuclear power has us.
