Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:21:46 UTC Steve Biggs @pettter @tomas No. Fusion has been ~30 years away for ~60 years. AFAIK, gen III and gen IV fission have not been significantly delayed. -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:19:25 UTC Steve Biggs @pettter @tomas Excellent deduction Watson! Here you go: http://ow.ly/nEYB309fKkb Apparently quitter doesn't like links ending in brackets -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:16:51 UTC Steve Biggs @pettter @tomas And next gen (Gen IV) fission is planned to be ready sooner (2030) than fusion (2050 - ????) http://qttr.at/1p9h -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:13:28 UTC Steve Biggs @pettter @tomas Fission plant designs with passive safety features such as EPR are being built now. http://qttr.at/1p9 -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:08:10 UTC Steve Biggs @pettter @tomas Not just smaller devices but passive safety features - feedback loops so e.g. as things get hot they automatically cool. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:05:17 UTC Steve Biggs @pettter @tomas I agree completely. But changing *almost everyone's* behaviour to achieve this is simply not going to happen quick enough. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:03:27 UTC Steve Biggs @pettter @tomas Certainly is :( In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:03:12 UTC Steve Biggs @dogjaw @pettter @tomas Yes, it's annoying. Would be more annoying to move instance though. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 16:02:15 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas @pettter Didn't say not enough energy in solar - only wind & hydro. The problem with solar, as you said, is storage & transmission. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 14:47:16 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas @pettter 4/4 Next gen fission designs have inherent safety features so *will* be safe. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 14:47:06 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas @pettter 3/4 Fusion and solar are great but won't be ready in time so we need renewables and fission in the short term. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 14:46:39 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas @pettter 2/4 There is simply not enough energy available from wind and hydro so alternatives are needed. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 14:46:21 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas @pettter 1/4 All good points. But worst case, no, MOST LIKELY scenario of NOT using nuclear is catastrophic climate change. In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 14:36:49 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas but as u say "the question [is not] are sufficient ... resources available, but ... can [they] be extracted economically" (same link) In conversation from quitter.se permalink -
Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 14:36:17 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas "some experts [say] resources will be exhausted by ... 2070" http://qttr.at/1p98 In conversation from quitter.se permalink Attachments

Steve Biggs (thestevebiggs@quitter.se)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Feb-2017 12:54:19 UTC Steve Biggs @tomas I know. Intentionally provocative. Sea U does satisfy definition http://qttr.at/1p90 Real problem with mining is finite resources. In conversation from quitter.se permalink Attachments
