00:00- First, we install some wind and solar. NEXT, we shut down our #nuclear plants. FINALLY, we burn lignite coal to make up for the loss of #cleanenergy from nuclear.🇩🇪 euractiv.com/section/energy…

00:00 - All this in the last 2 weeks: 🇧🇪 Belgium delays nuclear exit by 10 years 🇰🇷 South Korea elects pro-nuclear president 🇯🇵 Japan policymakers call for faster reactor restarts 🇨🇿 Czech opens tender for an atomic plant
- Friends from Poland and Germany are traveling to Phillippsburg #Nuclear Plant *right now* to protest the early and unnecessary closure of 1.4GW of clean power. This is like chopping down 4000 (2MW) wind turbines. It's an environmental tragedy. #Energiewende #fota4climate
Germany faces a power crunch 🇩🇪 ⚡️ The nation isn’t adding green energy quick enough as it exits nuclear/coal That means its ability to meet peak demand could shrink over the next 2 years, increasing risk of blackouts Via @vanessadezem @josefinefokuhl bloomberg.com/news/articles/…- "Nuclear power is not just a low-carbon energy source but a low-resource energy source, with a total environmental impact per kilowatt hour similar to that of renewables, according to a new study." #NuclearEnergy #CleanEnergy #nuclear #NuclearPower
- It's #mememonday, and man there is a lot of bad reporting on the #FukushimaWater . You know what that means-- lots of opportunities for letters to the editor and comments on their social media. Drinking a gallon of the Fukushima water before dilution would result in the same
- If Germany would have spent $500B on nuclear, they could have built roughly 100GW of it, which would produce about 800 TWh of electricity a year. Germany consumed 588TWh in 2021. If they went nuclear they could have totally decarbonized and had extra juice for millions of EVs.Germany pushed the snooze button on the global warming alarm clock. It's burning 13% more coal since last year. Coal is making a comeback & shows why spending nearly $500 billion on unreliable wind & solar power was a bad investment. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
