we need nuclear …
we need nuclear energy bud, were runnin out of oil and coal, so unless your like 60 you should be worried bc theres gonna be an energy crunch if we no1 supports nuclear energy, and were basically fucked. Theres not enough energy in what your proposing, its too costly. Also what you say might be more credible if you spelled ’solar’ correctly.

ok toxecryz that …
ok toxecryz that won’t happen
the problem with nuclear power is it’ safety
if a nuclear powerplant has a SMALL leak on the misessippi we wood make that we can’t fish in the guilf of mexico,in the rivers in the us, and contamanait a good deal of our drinking watter

steel and concreet sopose to hold nuclear rods …….. WTF no lead lead is the only meatal dens enuf to stop nuclear rays

the waste goes deeper into the earth

What happens if we get a earth quake and the land splits right where we put all the waste ?

Im guessing that’s because it costs money to make a freezer work. Factories do the same thing… they cool down their things in water.

Excellent vid, thnx …
Excellent vid, thnx for posting. I wonder what the radiation level is of those used fuel rods? Anyone know?

Tritium and …
Tritium and Deuterium. Its water with extra neutrons that can be used for a variety of things

its a terrible …
its a terrible answer because there are so many things we can do with the waste to reuse it and reduce the radioactivity. the US doesnt do it because its ‘afraid’ we will have plutonium on the black market. to be honest, now that korea kinda has a bomb, really i tihnk who cares.

so, it will all …
so, it will all just end out getting stored underground?. and thats it? does not anyone see the flaws in those plans? it takes only a moron to support nuclear power!!! now-, soler, wind and river/lake-dam powers are the answer!!!

It’s great to be …
It’s great to be informed about this kind of stuff. I had no idea that handling even the slightest of radioactive waste was so precise and complicated.

Undoubtedly expensive…but I’d say cleaner than most other methods of power generation…if handled and later disposed of properly, of course.

really? whats heavy water?

it makes heavy …
it makes heavy water, heavy water is valuable

there isnt enough …
there isnt enough radioactive materials in the world for us to fill more than a few square miles with waste.

instead of putting …
instead of putting the used fuel in pools, why don’t they just put them in a freezer?

Nuclear NRG is so efficient that it will take centuries upon centuries to generate that much waste.

i live in pickering and seen the power station a few times me and my friend took our pedal bikes and rode down to a beach right by it.

so nuclear energy …
so nuclear energy is just going to cause us to “honeycome” the earht til it collapses? i don’t like some of these ideas but very informative vid thanks for posting


johnpaulinjapan on January 11th, 2010 at 11:23 am #

very informative …
very informative video. thanks opg. i think we should all be discussing these types of issues – about energy supply. education is the way to find the best way to go green.
