The radiation from the Japanese nuclear plants aren't as severe as the media is proclaiming. Multiple safety experts have proven this if you look for more reliable sources i.e. not news shows.

As for nuclear power plants being an energy source of course it's not the safest or wisest but it's a very helpful source that if maintained can help produce a susceptible amount of power. No energy source will be safe like Routhy had mentioned in a previous post you made about the same topic (ironic double posting) that each power source also had multiple harmful effects to the environment. But there's always a price to pay for something.

That's very true, and I agree with you on that.

I just think we should rely on them less, and focus a little more on renewable energy sources.



Yes but the one in Japan had its reactors in the top of buildings i think. Of course i think we should get more into Solar power. My little sister insists that we get into it. Were also getting more advanced in solar technology. I believe that they should have them in more "remote" places. Maybe no houses or commercial buildings with in a fifty mile readius for example. But yes it isnt the best source of power. Also they can make power out of heated atoms =, thats how they power rockets.

What if they make powerplants in space.
I know it sounds farfetched, but if ever they could make some sort of solar-gathering satellite or something, it could make solar power more avaiable without the problem of area.

-----------Back to reality---------------

I prefer Solar Power more than Neuclear Power, but what can we do? Nuclear seems to be more viable, but Solar Power is advancing as well...

That would be an interesting concept. Still, many problems with that:
We can't really launch something like that into space, and it'd be extremely difficult to build it in space as well.
What would be collect in space, other than Solar Power, which is already being done.

Still, a cool concept.

If you are seriously worried about the effects of radiation, read this:

Nuclear isn't the final answer, but it is today's answer. We should spend the next 50 years phasing out fossil fuel power in favour of Nuclear Fission power. Then aim our technological advances towards Renewable power sources and Nuclear Fusion power, (Note: This is different to Nuclear Fission power) and move towards whichever is the most viable.

Thinking fossil fuels are the answer is living in the past, and thinking renewable energy sources are the answer is living too far in the future. We're nowhere near advanced enough to rely on them yet and we are in a crisis now.

^My opinion

Stuff like this happens becuase of earthquakes that keep increasing over the years, and were trying to make more of them.
Were taking off hours of human survival by the day haha Were goin to screw ourselves over one day abd im happy has hell that im not going to be there when the earth burns up or whatever happens xD

He is speaking about HARRP and saying we caused the tsunami by changing the weather pattterns?

Nuclear is only a temporary solution as I see it.I think solar is the best source of energy in the future.In the next 30-50 years,here are a few of my suggestions.Some may be a little far-fetched but I think they are posible.

1.A space chain of solar panels that would transmit power back to earth wirelessly.

2.An island purely for solar panels.

3.Solar panels on other planets.

Putting power plants in remote locations / other planets would require further T&D just for transporting/storting it, meaning it'll take even longer for it to become viable.

For the record, nuclear fusion is a long term solution. Look it up.

Yeah, but Nucleur Fusion is like...taking the Sun here.

And most methods of Nuclear Fusion bring more energy expenses than actual energy output.


But for now, yeah..
