...math skills, and their faith based denial of reality, their tiresome chanting and their gaslighting, the word "gaslighting" in this use being a pun, since all antinukes in effect push for the use of fossil fuels.
The tables in my recent post from the most recent edition of the IEA's World Energy Outlook demonstrates that the expensive and destructive solar and wind industries are trivial forms of energy, despite squandering vast economic, material and land resources. Solar and wind junk, all of which will be landfill within 20 to 25 years, soaked up 5.689 trillion dollars for no result in addressing the collapse of the planetary atmosphere, more than all other energy sources combined.
Understanding that the fossil fuel promoting antinukes cannot read, add or subtract, or think clearly and don't give a shit about the collapse of the planetary atmosphere, I indicated the numbers behind this disaster, again from the IEA, in this post, including the output of solar and wind junk and the cost here:
World Energy Investment 2015-2025, by Energy Type, read it, and if you don't weep, you should.
I am also aware that they don't give a flying fuck about fossil fuels and are only interested in attacking the only solution that has ever existed to address the collapse of the planetary atmosphere, nuclear energy.
There is not enough copper, cobalt, lithium, indium, neodymium, dysprosium or gallium on the planet for the useless solar and wind industry to match the land and material parsimonious output of nuclear energy, 31 Exajoules as of 2024, never mind enough to match the output of the coal industry, about which antinukes couldn't care less, the petroleum industry, about which antinukes couldn't care less, or the gas industry, about which antinukes couldn't care less.
Nuclear power plants are complex instruments, involving highly educated, highly trained, scientists and engineers. These people do not emerge instantaneously as well as I know, because my son is a emerging Ph.D. in nuclear engineering. The results of their work is to provide energy for many generations to come, unlike the solar and wind scam hyped by people with contempt for the future of humanity, since every solar and wind plant on the face of the Earth will be a decaying liability before today's toddlers get out college in 20 to 25 years.
China's nuclear powerplant construction capabilities are now the best in the world, scaling at an accelerating pace, but the building of the human resources to effect this change, decimated by years of ignorant propaganda by antinukes largely decimated this human resource all over the world. As antinukes have no respect for science and engineering, matched only by their contempt for humanity and the planetary environment, they don't grasp this.
Recently I referred to a Ukrainian apostate antinuke, who like me became pronuclear as a result of his understanding of the events at Chornobyl and understanding who and what nuclear engineers are:
WePlanet: What did you discover?
Serhii Kurykin: First, the people. There are no "accidental" professionals in the nuclear field. Those who work there are exceptionally educated, extremely dedicated, and fully aware of the immense responsibility they bear. You don’t survive in this field otherwise. Second, the systems. When nuclear plants are properly built and properly managed, they are remarkably safe. Routine operations are designed with prevention in mind. Constant vigilance is part of daily life at a nuclear plant. The Chornobyl reactor — the RBMK-1000 — was deeply flawed, partly because it was dual-use: designed for both civil and military purposes. Modern reactors are different. Lessons have been learned.
I added the bold:
Serhii Kurykin Reflects on Chornobyl, Change, and Ukraine’s Future
Serhii Kurykin is a Ukrainian environmental leader and former Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources. A co-founder of the Green World association and the Party of Greens of Ukraine, he has served as an MP, a member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, and later as Deputy Minister of Ecology. Today, he is a freelance consultant on environmental policy and co-founder of WePlanet Ukraine.
Every time an antinuke opens their mouths to chant dogma and demonstrate energy illiteracy, the result is clear enough, as is their contempt for humanity and its future, their contempt for
all ecosystems, and
their future and their contempt for science and engineering.
Thanks very much for another demonstration of this sad reality.
Have a great weekend.
