...how I feel about discussions about Chernobyl, Fukushima, etc.

Chernobyl took place in 1986, 38 years ago.

Fukushima took place in 2011, 13 years ago.

The general figure for deaths attributed to air pollution is 7 million people per year, 19,000 every damned day.

This suggests that more than a quarter of a billion people, more than six times the population of Ukraine have died since the Chernobyl explosion. Roughly 90 million people have similarly died since Fukushima from air pollution. Note I am excluding deaths from extreme global heating that are now becoming prominent.

Given these numbers, it offends me that I even have to talk endlessly about these "concerns."

The solar industry is a trillion dollar scale waste that has done nothing, zero, to address the destruction of the planetary atmosphere which is now accelerating.

I have no use for selective attention.
