    If there's one thing we know about Landshark it's that he's sexually open to anything

    Environmentalists here are super against nuclear power as well.

    But we get like 50% of our total energy from our own reactors. The environmentalists also don't want to ruin rivers by building dams, and also don't want us to buy energy from Polish coal plants (this is what the real alternative is).

    There's a reality bias against doing everything I think.

    please to be telling her that coal ash from coal based power plants (which the US uses a lot of) puts out more radiation into the environment than nuclear power plants could ever dream of.

    Pretty sure the yearly radiation output of coal ash is higher than fallout from all our radioactive disasters too, it just happens in a more more distributed manner, but I don't have the statistics to back that one up.

    yeah I got that in there, and cited

    I just threw this in

    "Comparing the safety of a power plant designed in 2016 to the safety of Fukushima is equivalent to comparing the safety of a Boeing 747 to a World War 1 biplane"

    I should probably actually verify that but it sounds right in terms of timescale

    man I've always been annoyed at environmentalists that are against hydro and how it's not counted as 'green' power

    everything we do is gonna have some effect! At least hydro is fairly contained. This river valley ecosystem becomes a lake ecosystem. Done. Now you have power at almost no cost, forever.

    I got a whole page about passive safety systems, simplified and safer than first and second generation designs, and even newer technologies like using inert gasses instead of water (which only exist in test plants, but if we had a new nuclear revolution we'd get all kinds of cool designs)

    Govt IT peeps are GS-12 and GS-13. Every govt contractor I know who does IT or programming makes way more than that. Some of the programmers I know who work for the govt make more than the SES does.

    but anything that takes CO2 that's safely locked away underground and tosses it into the atmosphere deserves neither the titles 'safe' nor 'clean'.

    And you know the insane thing about it is at least in my agency it doesnt matter. They will pay a boatload of money for a contract rather than just hire someone at a competitive salary. It's stupidity at it's finest.
