I kinda like the fact that Occidental powers are starting to realise how much of a bully the US actually is. We’ve never really been allies, more like vassals.
Big emphasis on Occidental powers, the rest of the world kinda knew that already.
That’s the great thing about trickle down economics, when it goes up, they get richer and we get poorer. When it goes down, we get poorer and they get richer !
Better rising up about money than not rising up at all
I’m talking about Gravelines in France. The first reactor was plugged into the national grid 6 years after construction began. The 6th reactor in 1985.
The EPR2 is already designed, and in service in Flamanville. Flamanville 3 took a long time because we had to rebuild our whole nuclear industry, by lack of political vision back in the 90’s-00’s.
We’re building it again, two by two this time, and hopefully in less than half the time and budget.
I was talking specifically about plant and animal life.
It’s obviously not a paradise, but what I mean is, ionising radiation is literally less harmful to them than human presence. That’s pretty bonkers to think about.
Leave that zone alone, let nature take over again and make it a monument to human hubris.
I don’t think I talked about growing food in irradiated ground though? But, we currently are growing food in polluted ground thanks to fossil fuels (microplastics, coal dust, oil leaks, fracking in some backwards ass countries, etc.).
Our largest power plant, with 6 reactors, was built in 6 years. To this day it provides us with around 6% of our global power requirements. It’s been running for 45 years, producing 32TWh per year with 0 carbon emissions.
It’s like we could build them faster if we wanted to ? We’ve done it already, we can do it again.
Well, good news, because I’m not the one saying it. That’s coming from our Transmission Operator. Everything is detailed in their 992 page report:
What it says is that 100% renewables in France by 2050 is not possible, as the technology is not quite there yet, and also because our energy consumption ever keeps growing.
What they propose is a mix of nuclear and renewables to reach carbon neutrality, then phasing out nuclear over decades.
Completely moving away from fossil fuels with just renewables is a pipe dream. Nuclear is not a panacea and it has its problems but it’s part of the solution to get rid of fossil fuels entirely.
And ironically enough, Fukushima and Chernobyl have not been that bad for plant and animal life. The area around Chernobyl is thriving because most humans are gone.

Wait until you see the price of climate change and not moving away from fossil fuels then
Now list all the fossil fuels related incidents.
Nuclear + renewables is the way to go to stop the climate crisis in the foreseeable future.
Well, TB, GB, MB are decimal (powers of 10). TiB, GiB, MiB are binary (powers of 2). So that’s correct.
When you’re the ones manufacturing the crisis, it’s easier to prepare and profit from it

For information, Framasoft is a french non profit that fights really hard to protect our privacy rights and the right to free software.
They have a bunch of FOSS apps to replace some of the FAANG services, they’re also the creators of PeerTube if I recall correctly.
That’s exactly the reason why laws for more surveillance, more repression, harsher sentencing, etc. are ALWAYS a trap. They can always redefine what makes you liable. And at some point they will.
Funnily enough, they keep complaining that French justice is too lax. But now that they’ve been convicted (by a law they partly wrote and voted for) it’s unfair and undemocratic. Fuck them
JWST doing exactly what it was supposed to do ! That’s both exciting and terrifying !
