TVA at the least seems careless and sloppy if not outright incompetent and irresponsible.

TVA operates three nuclear plants. Should we expect leaks and spills from these facilities?

Scary stuff!!!

Let’s hope no one is seriously pushing nuclear a “greener” energy source. That hope unfortunately is too late; already quiet yet hard-sell campaign going on to start cranking up the forever waste plants.

Nuclear waste is indeed forever in the time frames of human life and of most of our capacities for imagination.

There is an often repeated saying among the shills for the nuclear industry that “there is no such thing as nuclear waste.” Bullshit.

Brown’s Ferry and Bellefonte are two close at hand reminders of how nuclear power generation is a failed concept. A person close to the development of nuclear anything was Albert Einstein , who defined insanity as “doing the same thing again and again even though it doesn’t work.”

Beware of who is insisting on change, and exactly what changes they might have in mind.
