Voices For Vermont Yankee
Meredith Angwin has been fighting to save Vermont from itself for several years. She has been publishing a blog at Yes Vermont Yankee, teaching adult education classes about energy, attending public meetings, giving interviews, and participating in debates about energy policy since about 2008. (She’ll let me know if I got the date wrong.) She…
Atomic Show #194 – What do you do with the waste?
The first Atomic Show of 2013 is a geeky, chemistry laden discussion aimed at helping to answer the question that many people who fight nuclear energy try to use as their trump card “What do you do with the waste.” It often makes their head spin or makes them put their fingers into their ears…
Atomic Show #349 – Josh Gillespie, COO National Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC)
Idaho National Laboratory (INL) was born in 1949 as the National Reactor Testing Station after the Atomic Energy Commission decided they needed a place to test controlled nuclear fission power systems. Before being taken over by the AEC, the land was controlled and used by the U.S. Navy to test refurbished weapons, up to and…
Markey is lying. The AP1000 design certification has been anything but “fast tracked”
A letter to the editor of the Asheville Citizen-Times published on January 6, 2012 got me riled up. The letter is intended to encourage people who live in Asheville to organize to resist the William States Lee nuclear power plant development project proposed for a site in Gaffney, SC., which is about 60 miles from…
Atomic fission technology is a terrible candidate for a “do not resuscitate” order. Antinuclear groups MUST not be granted right to put one in place
I’m going to beg forgiveness and literary license for the following extended, potentially inappropriate, and perhaps too personal metaphor. For several weeks, I’ve been struggling with finding my “voice” in dealing with current events related to the U.S. electricity production system. As part of my healing process, I went on a several day long reading…
The Atomic Show #078 – Armond Cohen, Executive Director, Clean Air Task Force Air
Armond Cohen and Rod Adams talk about coal power plant emissions, effort to require cleaner coal technology, and the Clean Air Task Force’s neutral position on nuclear power. On January 8, 2007 I chatted with Armond Cohen, the Executive Director of the Clean Air Task Force (CATF). Here is an excerpt from their About Us…
It’s good to see Isabel becoming a prominent fixture in the pro-nuclear, online presence. To me, the pro-nuke, zoomer, influencer, fashion model archetype she has created (hasn’t been imitated) seems strangely contrived, but she has been consistent about the cause for many years now. I’m used to this demographic producing materialistic and showy or otherwise insipid content (purses, jewelry, trips to Italy, un-boxings, mukbang). My theory is her online persona and content is ‘produced’ – that Isabel is a frontman for some non-governmental organization. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I have strange sensibilities and the contrived online world of social media chafes them.
I bought the book. Initial thumb-through looks good. I need a few hours to read it. I’ll post a review on Amazon.
The Atomic Show seems to offer insightful discussions on nuclear energy. I appreciate the efforts to promote this field, though I wish there were more diverse perspectives included. The comments section provides some interesting additional viewpoints.labubu live wallpaper
