There is an old saying which likens ‘Fighting for Peace’ to that
of screwing for virginity.
There are co-called ecologists who claim that the problem of
climate change can only be solved by the use of nukiller
power.
They would seem to of forgotten that mining of Uranium,
and every thing else about nukiller power produces Climate
changing damage.
This says nothing of the other long term ecological mess
which nukes produce.
We can stop climate change
– by cutting our energy use,
– by building wind farms,
– by better insulation of our homes,
&
– reverse things by growing more trees.
What we can not do is work out how to safely store the
radioactive sludge which result from the use of nukiller
power,
or
guarantee to safeguard this very toxic waste into the coming
millenniums.
So when the likes of George Monbiot states that Nukes are the
answer to Climate change,
then all I can do is sing the words to that popular old song:
‘and the band played believe it if you can’.
