HowardGreenies Still Trying to Kill Nuclear Power

Indian Point plants in NY State
Greenies are still working hard to kill nuclear power. A New York State ruling would deny a new water permit to the two nuclear plants at Indian Point, 35 miles north of New York City. These plants supply 30 percent of the electricity to NYC and Westchester County. As the NY Times writes:
"The decision is a blow to the plant's owner, the Entergy Corporation, which now faces the prospect of having to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build stadium-size cooling towers, or risk that Indian Point's two operating reactors -- which supply 30 percent of the electricity used by New York City and Westchester County --could be forced to shut down.
Entergy officials said that they were "disappointed" in the ruling and that they might fight it in court. The original federal licenses for the two 1970s-era reactors expire in 2013 and 2015, and a water quality certificate is a prerequisite for a 20-year renewal by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission. But a prolonged appeal in New York could delay a shutdown, Diane Screnci, a spokeswoman for the commission, said late Saturday.
"An Entergy spokesman said that converting Indian Point's cooling system would cost $1.1 billion and would require shutting both reactors down entirely for 42 weeks. "
It's the usual greenie crap. NYC can be slowly losing bus route after bus route. Unemployment grows. Many new nuclear plants with more up-to-date equipment have not been built because of the greenie foundations and front groups. Yet, the public must be billed $1.1 billion to save a few fish this second, and screw everything else.

The Washington State nuclear waste dumps are all leaking into the Columbia River (check WS website) and they've tried all the present technology to contain it. Government is in a panic and is in talks with Australia to take the waste. They've discovered a granite in Lake Boga, Australia that can contain nuclear waste but it can't be broken up.
Will you guys take it over your back fence?

Anyway, if we do not have nuclear power we cannot go to fusion power. It's a process of transition to higher energy flux density, not ridiculous low density energy like the cultist solar, and wind.
We have to go back to the Moon and mine Helium-3. Then we will have the charged fusion process we need to get to Mars with constant acceleration.
Time for us monkeys to get out of the tree and the planet.
