3. Insult all you want

And insincerely tell me to have a nice day, but your junk science posts that no one reads but me, is telling why there is a lot of “pee on my leg and tell it’s raining” given the amount of nuclear waste you want to bring to this country…with no where to go. Nevadans don’t want it.

I am not just a dumb tree hugger and all the other insults you assume about people like me. I work in the waste field. The world is filled with short sighted “progress” that ignores the Precautionary Principle of sustainability. And even the sustainability world ignores the threats of waste in an all forms….and we have a litany of problems as a result to show for it. We shouldn’t build economies and “solutions” from dysfunction. Emissions are a problem but reducing methane is also a serious step in reducing the heating effects of ghg.

Solve the waste problem. Solve the legacy waste storage issue. Be self sufficient and not have to relay on the Price Anderson Act to bail out the industry for their failures. Don’t release nuclear waste into the ocean, build these facilities away from waterways. Protect them with military oversight so we don’t have the threats or attacks like what is going on in the war in Ukraine.

But please, solve the waste issue or even mandate it’s recycled.
