Why would you deliberately delay progress on the climate crisis by choosing to prioritize the most expensive, slowest way to address it? #Nuclear will worsen affordability by raising electricity rates and won't get here for years, depriving job opportunities to tens of thousands
The New England governors, who recently gathered at UMASS Lowell for a nuclear energy “summit”, claim there is a crisis. There is, but our climate emergency won't be fixed with slow, expensive, dangerous #nuclear power and its unsolved waste problem.

Beyond Nuclear retweeted
The Dept of Energy wants to store nuclear waste from California and Washington in Idaho in perpetuity.
They're calling it a "Nuclear Innovation Lifecycle Hub".
That's a fancy name for nuclear waste ☢️ dump.

More #nuclearrenaissance news. US flagship small modular reactor project #NuScale collapsed in 2003, 18 years in after hemorrhaging $800 million of mostly taxpayer money. Now it's selling $750 million in shares after a second 1/4 revenue of $75,000.

There's nothing to be bullish about for the small modular #nuclear reactor guys, no matter how inflated their rhetoric. That hissing sound is due to some pretty painful headlines and a big “meh” from Wall Street. beyondnuclearinternational.o…

"lossmaking and have little or no revenue." "growing concerns over the lack of immediate revenue and the long build-out timelines for the technology." It's "The Small Short" with the modular #nuclear reactor fantasy backfiring badly beyondnuclear.org/the-small-…

You'd think dynamiting the Danube, turning off reactors, dried up rivers, wildfire smoke near Sizewell B and the reality of more intense heat, fires and droughts, would nail the coffin lid closed on new nuclear power plant plans? Nope. Dumb and reckless.

We've just commemorated 81 years since the unecessary, immoral, experimental and racist bombing of #Hiroshima and #Nagasaki. So why are the #nuclear armed nations rushing to increase their arsenals? Lawrence Wittner offers some thoughts. beyondnuclearinternational.o…

Everyone should watch A Short Vision, released in 1956 and as true today as then -- a powerful warning in just 6 minutes of simple but beautiful animations. The filmmakers made it on their kitchen table, a reminder that we don't need AI. @M_Star_Online morningstaronline.co.uk/arti…

This is what's happening -- solar and wind soaring; nuclear power stagnating -- compared to what you keep hearing ("it's the new, improved nuclear renaissance!") Thanks to a good analysis from @DaveToke and republished on Beyond Nuclear International. beyondnuclearinternational.o…

Oral histories conducted with atomic vets gives the lie to the "official" version of events. Atomic vets are still struggling to get recognition and compensation for the radiation exposures they were subjected to, both during atomic tests and "cleanup". beyondnuclearinternational.o…

By far the most forgotten and overlooked nuclear disaster in history. The answer as to why, lies in the racist, colonialist history of the nuclear power industry. beyondnuclearinternational.o… #ChurchRock
