European Tribune - Comments - Don't play with nuclear power

Don't play with nuclear power | 11 comments (11 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

Germans + nukes = panic.

Still, a healthy sign that the young generation goes out to "play nuclear power station", something their parents most certainly didn't.

Maybe I really should wear that "Bau Wyhl!" t-shirt next time I visit Freiburg... ;)

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

Yeah, like 30 years ago. But it was never built. It was the first major victory for the German anti-nukes.

Sounds like our victory against a nuclear plant in Carnsore in Wexford about 30 years ago. Ireland has been a nuclear free zone ever since - if you discount the emissions we get from the British Windscale (Sellafield) plant in Cumbria.
