There’s an article at FoxNews talking about the plans to bury the Cherynobyl reactor under a new “coffin” that should last 100 years, yada yada yada.
At the very end we get a money quote:
“Nuclear energy has shown how expensive it is,” said Vladimir Chuprov of Greenpeace Russia.
Money quote for us, that is. The actual fact is that UNSAFELY IMPLEMENTED nuclear energy has shown how expensive it is. No other nuke plant in the world (as far as I know), not even the old Hanford plant, and certainly not Three Mile Island — the site of the U.S.’s only nuclear accident that released radioactivity into the air — was built as unsafely as Chernobyl.
So Vladimir Chuprov of Greenpeace Russia and the rest of the Luddite anti-nuke jackasses can stick that in their pipe and smoke it.
