This is infuriating! Finland still uses 33% fossil fuels AND burns ancient forests for 31% of their energy. Europe still uses 70% fossil fuels overall. But put the brakes on new nuclear; those fossil fuels are too cheap to beat. We are so fucking cooked

I can never remember how many yards tall the nuclear waste could be stacked in a football field!

We cannot close a reactor for no good reason, driving up gas prices and outbidding poorer countries. We're at war with a gas-producing nation! It should be treason to intentionally drive up gas prices. Restart Doel-1!

We don't need baseload power, we'll just have micro-grids, and a combination of solar, wind, batteries, hydro, interconnected hydrogen grids, and strategically reduce demand in certain areas based on a smart meter system

I love how the new nuclear projects in Europe are at these beautiful Mediterranean spots, but every new nuclear project in the US is at like at the ruralest sundown city you can imagine Nuclear engineers take note

This is a very real problem, people having no sense of wanting to make a bunch of money!! Once this repository is up, it will be the historical Wyoming waste repository and people will protest it's removal. You just need a few key people to be bold enough to want to make some fucking money!

I had missed this! Let's go Ghana, I cannot wait for this project to be properly underway. Ghana deserves nuclear so much!

It was great going to the
@standupfornuclear.org
protest in Belgium, but depressing that there's so many of them for closures of nuclear power plants. Unbelievable that gas is getting this handout in 2025!!

Now, in this election year, Merkel's party, the CDU, now they're reconsidering their energy mix. Not in 2022 when we were all screaming at them to please pause the phaseout, for fucks sake

I wonder how this working paper stacks up 6 years later - They find the social cost of the phase-out to producers and consumers to be $12 billion per year. Most of the costs fall to consumers, and most is in increased mortality risk from air pollution exposure.

Belgian leaders must abolish the 2003 nuclear phaseout law and ensure the continued operation of all feasible reactors. 2024 was the hottest year on record, & the first to officially breach 1.5°C of warming, the case for urgent action is clearer than ever. Event details linked below.

If Westinghouse gets a microreactor on the moon before we get a commercial microreactor on EARTH, the objectively best planet in the galaxy, I just don't know what I'll do with myself

So many people - and politicians - wants these super clear answers, will nuclear drive electricity prices down? Do countries with nuclear have lower electricity prices? And nuclear helps, but this system is so complex, it's just not a one part solution

It's natural to focus on your home turf, but stuff like this, a big nuclear power plant getting the go-ahead in Pakistan, will really make the biggest climate impact. Good for China to export their technology, hopefully Pakistan can get their air quality under control

I really hope we get nuclear diamond batteries in my lifetime, for nature of course, but also diamonds are so... I love a substance that is so strong it can only be cut by the same material. Just the metaphor of it, how you forge the tools of your own destruction.

If you aspire to continue pushing the rock up the hill, as we're meant to do in the world, it's proper to mourn goodness rolling back down, and it's proper to climb down to push it back up.

I worry that I am getting too jaded. Years ago, I would have been so excited by this news. I remember that some people questioned the feasibility of reactors that could burn nuclear waste and not having enough examples handy. Now I question whether it will change anyone's mind, once it comes out.
