I thought this article:
http://www.spacedaily.com/news/nuclear-civil-02k.html
fairly enlightening.
Are the folks over there *crazy*? (No offense to citizens
in the respective countries intended.) This is interesting
because it would seem to cast Sweden and Germany on courses
quite opposed to France with the U.K. someplace in the middle.
>From the Swedish perspective I think it is really unrealistic.
How do they think the are going to produce the necessary
energy? I don't know what the tides are like in the Gulf
of Bothnia, but this seems really unrealistic.
What is the problem? Russia certainly has ample supplies
of materials that could be used to fuel nuclear reactors.
So it has to be either a perspective that nuclear power
is unsafe, or a waste disposal issue that radioactive
isotopes cannot be transformed into nonradioactive variants.
Feedback?
Robert
