global warming, energy use, and relasted government policies.
Here is a lifestyle example of individuals who are against use of fossil fuels and support man-made global warming alarmist politicians. They eat locally grown organic fruits and vegetables when in season to reduce use of fossil fuels for transportation. They go on frequent vacations around North America and to Europe using vast amounts of fossil fuels. Are they following the principles they profess are necessary for a better world? Are they helping the poor in Africa and elsewhere? Are they helping the environment? Are politicians they vote for helping the world?
The readers of this report can decide for themselves.

There is no recognition whatsoever [in Flannery’s book] of the enormous benefits to humanity from such [cheap] energy use. What would be shocking would be a return to the short and brutal existence before 1800. Even with his thousands of servants, France’s King Louis XIV could not be as well-informed, entertained, transported, engaged in as many recreational activities or enjoy as great a variety of food and beverage as the average Australian of today, thanks to our main servant – coal.]

Restarting an Industry: Nuclear
[It does not make sense to restart the nuclear industry in the United States as long as the anti-nuclear activists are able to continued doing what they have done since 1970, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission uses the same review standards regarding low dose radiation, and the NRC does not have a competent staff to quickly review new nuclear technologies.
Certain leaders and organizations in America’s nuclear power industry have to stop kidding themselves that nuclear power has any influence over Earth’s climate and that nuclear power can be expanded fast enough to “rescue” the world from “man-made global warming catastrophic tipping points.”
It is going to take far longer than many pro-nuclear organizations talk about for nuclear power to be generating most of the world’s electricity. That will then be still less than most of the world’s uses of fossil fuels.
Nuclear power advocates, organizations, and key people must work for three things:
1) Promote nuclear power as the cleanest, most environmentally friendly, most price stable source for generating electricity.
2) Clear away all the hurdles the anti-nuclear power alarmists have put in front of the nuclear industry since the 1970s.
3) Learn from successful nuclear power programs and regulatory agencies in

The United States Government needs a major house cleaning. Many politicians won’t do that.
The United States has been very successful with its nuclear power program in spite of all the obstacles. Our real nuclear power leaders are among the best in the world. But where our nuclear power program is in 2023 is very disappointing and a disgrace.

⤊ Fossil fuels
Fossil fuels are absolutely essential for the modern world. To insist that the world abandon them and use only wind, solar, wood chips, biomass, and hydro is to demand a great “reduction” in population and forgoing all the by-products and services from fossil fuels and nuclear power.
⤊ Nuclear

These two scientists are certain that carbon dioxide from fossil fuels is causing catastrophic global warming and sea level rise. Man-made CO2 will stay there a long time. Their thinking about man-made carbon dioxide and fossil fuels has had tremendous influence on women in nuclear professions around the world. To reduce use of fossil fuels is to return the standard of living back to that in the 1700s.

CLIMATE has always changed. We know for sure that today’s climate change has nothing to do with the increase of CO2 atmospheric concentration. We know this because:
a) During the interglacial periods of the last 500.000 (one each 100,000 years or so) global temperatures reached values higher than global temperatures of the present interglacial period, yet CO2 atmospheric concentration was always below 300 ppm,
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 28
whereas today it is above 400 ppm.
b) During the present interglacial period global temperatures reached values higher than that of the last 100 years (Holocene Optimum, Roman Optimum, Medieval Optimum).
c) The present warming started since the minimum (1690 ca.) of the Little Ice Age.
d) During the years 1940-80, the Earth suffered global cooling, in spite of the fact that we had a baby boom, an industrial boom and an emissions boom.
e) For a dozen years (2000-12) there has been observed no warming, although emissions have relentlessly increased.
f) The models predicting a man made warming a) fail to reproduce the Holocene, Roman and Medieval warming; b) have failed in predicting the no-warming during the years 2000-12; c) have predicted a hot-spot in the equatorial troposphere at around 10 km above sea level, but satellite and balloons measurement have detected a cool spot in that area.
⤊ Fossil fuels
We should thank God for living in the fossil fuels era (rather than in the stone ages, the iron ages or otherwise). The world energy needs has been satisfied 100% by the solar energy since the beginning of the world, and this was thanks to a little wind, some wood, and a lot of slavery. Thanks to fossil fuels and technology using them, slavery is today a taboo (it was not so until 200 years ago: the “Gone with the Wind” story occurred less than 200 years ago in an America with 30 million people and 4 million legal slaves). Today’s world energy needs are satisfied by solar energy by less than 10%. Solar energy is the energy of the past, when the world population has always been less than 1 billion people. Today we are 8 billion: for solar energy to become the energy of the future (no fossil fuels, no nuclear) 7 billion of us have to die, and 90% of those surviving become slaves.

COP27: Joe Biden issues climate rallying cry to world leaders
Biden is pitching a much vaster climate plan than Obama ever attempted, with calls for trillions of dollars in new spending along with efforts to make combating global warming a prime mission for the entire executive branch.
Biden claims that the U.S. is now the world’s second-largest current climate polluter. China ranks as No. 1, with carbon emissions more than double those of the U.S.
Joe Biden promises billions, eventually trillions of dollars to other countries because of his fantasy of supposed catastrophic man-made global warming from use of fossil fuels. Man-made global warming is scientifically impossible. It is a hoax and a lie to accomplish a hidden agenda against Americans and billions of others around the world. Meanwhile, over 33,000 American veterans are homeless and destitute. Biden’s empty promises for giving money to other countries for faux catastrophic climate change should go to important needs in the United States. American veterans commit suicide because they have mental issues and feel like no one cares.

Is America Bracing for Blackouts?
Historically, it was guns, germs, and steel that determined the fates of people and nations. Now, more than ever, it is electricity.
Global demand for power is doubling every two decades, but electricity remains one of the most difficult forms of energy to supply and do so reliably. Today, some three billion people live in places where per-capita electricity use is less than what's used by an average American refrigerator. How we close the colossal gap between the electricity rich and the electricity poor will determine our success in addressing issues like women's rights, inequality, and climate change.
Electricity has fueled a new epoch in the history of civilization. A Question of Power explains how that happened and what it means for our future.

Reduce reliance on fossil fuels, adopt renewable sources to tackle climate change
[Sorry Your Excellency, Dalai Lama, Buddhists know what supports life and what is pollution. Carbon dioxide from use of fossil fuels is the amazing molecule of all life. It does no harm.
Your recommendation to take fossil fuels away because they produce carbon dioxide AND to sequester CO2 out of the air would be a catastrophe for humanity, the environment, and wildlife. Think of all the mining for millions of windmills and solar panels to replace fossil fuels over thousands of years - just for generating electricity. The majority of uses for fossil fuels are for transportation, space heating, cooking, mining, and manufacturing. They will always be used for these purposes. Think of all the wind turbines slicing up birds and bats. Think of all the waste turbines, solar panels, and batteries going to landfills repeatedly for tens of thousands of years! Think of all the wind turbines located in the oceans that will rust and be torn apart by severe storms, giant waves, and ice buildup. Fossil fuels are far better for people and the environment than wind and solar energy. The transition to wind turbines and solar panels is a treacherous hoax against the wonderful modern world.
We wish Buddhists and people of all peaceful faiths the best of HAPPINESS!

Who is to blame? John Shanahan wrote: “The biggest offenders of man-made global warming alarmism are voters who put the alarmist politicians in power.”
I disagree with that because the vast majority doesn't have the education to understand who is reasonable in the climate debate.
The same goes for the politicians. None of the ministers in the German government has a scientific background. And none of them has a sound education or experience in economics, unfortunately.
The background of most journalists is not better, but if they were following the rules of good journalism they would support a debate and not suppress it.
However, the group that is to blame the most is the agenda scientists who deny natural factors or even the existence of past climate changes and who lie "the science is settled" and about the "climate crisis", which is fiction, not fact.

“The results of this review point to the extreme value of CO2 to all life forms, but no role of CO2 in any significant change of the Earth’s climate. … There is no correlation of CO2 with temperature in any historical data set that was reviewed.
Dr. Fleming introduces an alternative “theory of climate change—due to the Sun’s magnetic field interacting with cosmic rays”. He theorizes that the Earth’s temperature has warmed in the modern era as a consequence of the strong solar activity during the 20th century (the Modern Maximum) shielding cosmic ray intensification and thus reducing decadal-scale cloud cover, which leads to warming via an increase in absorbed surface solar radiation.

⤊ About
Viv Forbes is a master of clear, short explanations of complex subjects. For example:
Glass is largely transparent to incoming solar radiation which warms whatever is inside the greenhouse. If the greenhouse had no walls (like the atmosphere), warmed greenhouse air would rise by convection, escape out via the open sides, and heavy cooler air near to the ground would flow in to take its place. This open “Greenhouse” would stay close to outside temperature.
What causes a real greenhouse to warm is the solid transparent roof and the closed walls. The glass roof welcomes incoming solar radiation but the solid enclosure prevents this warmed inside air from escaping.
In a real greenhouse, operators shut vents to prevent warm air from escaping (or open them when they wish to lower the inside temperature). They pump CO2 in to

encourage plant growth (the Anti-Greens want to starve plants by restricting CO2).
Earth’s atmosphere has no roof or walls. Solar heating at the surface causes the hot air to rise. It cools by radiation or adiabatic expansion and is replaced by cooler air.

⤊ Introduction
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 84
In 2000, we developed a strategy for the security of energy supply based on the diversification of primary energies, import countries and import means and routes. We have also worked on energy efficiency.
But today, energy policy has been superseded by decarbonization policy. The European Union believed that everything would be possible and fast, especially with wind and solar energy, to the point of abandoning the provisions of the Euratom Treaty, which provided for the promotion of civil nuclear energy.
In the chaos created by this carelessness that has led to the abandonment of the indigenous production of fossil fuels, the European Union claims that the solution is to accelerate this abandonment and therefore to speed up the production of wind and solar energy. However, after having financed their technological development for nearly half a century, having given priority to dispatching and having obliged their production since 2009, they still represent only 3% of the primary energy balance.
It is urgent and essential for the future of the Union to denounce the failure of the abandonment of the energy policy.
It must be said that the European Union has blindly followed Germany in its energy Katastrophe. It is high time to save the future of the EU by giving up everything that Germany has imposed in Brussels/Strasbourg.
The founding fathers of the EU created the European Community - as the EU was then called - with the aim of having "abundant and cheap energy" (Messina Declaration of 2 June 1955). We have arrived at the moment of truth, at the edge of the cliff... there is only one thing to do... put it in reverse.

⤋ JOHN HOLDREN - USA
⤋ Climate ⤋ Nuclear
John Holdren is one of the most successful scientist alarmists about catastrophic man-made global cooling, global warming, climate change, and climate disruption from carbon dioxide from use of fossil fuels - all terms he has invented or used since the 1970s. He strongly opposes advanced nuclear power technologies and recycling of used nuclear fuels. His preferences are to keep coal, oil, natural gas, uranium, and thorium in the ground. He has influenced Presidents Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden in the negative decisions against atmospheric carbon dioxide, fossil fuels, and nuclear power.
All of these reversals will throw the world back to the standards of living of the 1700s or 1100s with tremendous suffering and loss of life, reintroduce slavery and massive denuding of forests and wildlife habitat.
Who are the worst leaders in the world, climate change alarmists, anti-fossil fuel, and anti-advanced nuclear power people like John Holdren and his fellow alarmists or brutal conventional dictators in the last 3,000 years? They killed and tortured millions!
John Holdren dedicated his entire career to sounding alarms about essential energy sources that improve lives from backbreaking toil, slavery, desease, and pollution.
He advised the White House, Congress, and National Academies to stop the use of fossil fuels and nuclear power. He is a leading promoter of an anti-modern world.
If his advice is followed, the world will be far worse off.

ANS - HPS Conference - 2018: Education about fear of radiation
It was at the dawn of the 20th century when famous scientific names such as Albert Einstein, Ernest Rutherford and Enrico Fermi made theoretical and experimental advances which paved the way for the introduction of nuclear power.
African countries need reliable, accessible electricity supplies which are affordable. Such supplies will drive economies forward at an accelerating rate, to the social and economic benefit of all their citizens.
These are reactors of the order of only 100MW in size which do not need to be near large bodies of water. They can be placed virtually anywhere. They can be taken to where the power is needed, rather than generating power at a defined site such as is required with hydro-power, and then having to transmit the power over the huge distances of Africa to where the industrial development needs it.

What A U.S. Electric Grid Attack Looks Like
Modern life has a woven-in thread of vulnerability that is peculiar to our times: electricity. It’s the cardiovascular and nervous system of life across the world, more so in the Internet Age than even 30 years ago.
If the nation lost electricity, it would cause an instant and lethal paralysis that would go beyond inconvenience of the kind parts of New England have just experienced—and which left me charging my cell phone in my car.
Nonetheless, scattered blackouts of the kind I have been caught in are a reminder of what alarmists (though unsettling, they’re not always wrong) have been warning. If there is no electricity, there is no light, no water, no sewage, no gas and diesel, no heating and cooling—even gas and oil systems rely on electric pumps and fans. If such a blackout were sustained, slow death through starvation, or fast death through disease and armed gangs ravaging the cities and towns for food, would be the result.

Ocean Currents More Important than the Greenhouse Effect
The widely held belief that humans are causing a climate emergency has its origins in the claim that greenhouse gases keep the planet warm by absorbing Earth’s radiation,1 preventing it escaping to space. From this understanding, it would naturally follow that releasing more greenhouse gases, specifically carbon dioxide from industrial emissions, will lead to more warming.
Burning of fossil fuels has undoubtedly increased the carbon dioxide concentration of the atmosphere. In the IPCC’s explanation, as the concentration has increased, there has been a reduction in the intensity of radiation emitted to space. This so-called ‘radiation forcing’ heats the atmosphere. The reality of the greenhouse effect is, however, much more complex than just the absorption of Earth’s radiation by greenhouse gases and the balance of radiation at the top of the atmosphere. It has been understood for more than 60 years that greenhouse gases emit more radiation –to space and back to Earth – than they absorb. The atmosphere is only prevented from cooling by a constant flow of heat and latent energy (the evaporation of water vapour) from the Earth’s surface. It is impossible to properly understand what is going on without considering these enormous flows of energy.
The absence of global radiation balance is exemplified by the fact that Earth’s average surface temperature is not constant; it has an annual range exceeding 2.5°C. This shows that the global emission of longwave radiation to space must vary through the year. This can only mean that the amount of heat radiated to space is a function of Earth’s changing temperature, which in turn means radiation to space cannot in any way be defining Earth’s temperature, either locally or globally.
An alternative approach to explaining why Earth’s temperature is changing is to follow the course of energy as it traverses the climate system, from absorption over the tropics, transport poleward by the atmospheric and oceanic currents, to emission to space over higher latitudes.
While a small amount of extra energy has gone into the tropical ocean surface as a result of increased carbon dioxide concentrations, eight times as much has been escaping to the atmosphere. The absorption of additional radiation energy from the change in carbon dioxide concentration is insufficient to support the rise in latent heat loss from the increase in surface temperature. This leaves changes in ocean currents as the only plausible explanation for the warming of the tropical reservoir. This idea is supported by real-world evidence, such as the observed slowing of the Gulf Stream.

WE URGE ALL PARTIES TO ACCEPT THE POPE’S OFFER OF THE VATICAN AS A VENUE FOR PEACE NEGOTIATIONS
PLEASE CIRCULATE THE LETTER BELOW TO CHURCH AUDIENCES OF WHATEVER DENOMINATION, SOCIAL MEDIA, GROUPS, OTHER INSTITUTIONS
OPEN LETTER TO POPE FRANCIS
…………………………………
His Holiness Pope Francis
Apostolic Palace
00120 Vatican City Your Holiness,
Greetings from the grouping of Political and Social Leaders of the World To Stop the Danger of Nuclear War, initiated by the Schiller Institute in Germany.
We have met on three occasions to discuss the impending danger of nuclear war and global Armageddon resulting from the war between Ukraine and Russia, with a view to taking whatever action necessary to stop the war and to bring peace.
On 17 November 2022, our group issued a Declaration To Stop the Threat
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 137
of Nuclear War, signed by legislators and former legislators from Latin America, the United States, Europe, the Caribbean, and Africa.
https://schillerinstitute.com/blog/2022/11/17/declaration-of-current-an d-former-legislatures-of-the-world-stop-the-danger-of-nuclear-war/
In that declaration, we highlighted Your Holiness’s call for a negotiated, peaceful solution. We further welcome Your Holiness’s offer of the Vatican as a possible neutral ground for peace talks without any preconditions between Russia and Ukraine. Our group wishes to support this initiative in any way we can, including gathering together all who wish for peace and the prevention of nuclear war.
We note that others in Europe and the United States have also offered venues for the Russian and Ukrainian leadership to negotiate peace. We believe it is urgent to unify all such efforts into a globe-spanning movement to bring resolution to this conflict, taking into consideration the valid security interests of all parties.
In that spirit, we hereby sign this letter to indicate that support, and call on other political and social leaders around the world, regardless of differences in ideology or religious faith, to add their signatures as well.
We intend to convene a Fourth Seminar of Political and Social Leaders of the World To Stop the Danger of Nuclear War in early 2023 to further this push for peace and to stop the danger of nuclear war, and we extend an invitation to a representative from the Vatican to attend.

Helga Zepp LaRouche, Dec. 12:
To all religions, elected officials, civic organizations, and people of good will worldwide
The international Schiller Institute endorses the offer of Pope Francis to use the venue of the Vatican for negotiations between Russia and Ukraine for a diplomatic settlement of the war in Ukraine.
The confrontation between the U.S., NATO, and Russia has escalated to the point where one more step, even an unintended mistake, one misreading by one side or the other, could trigger the launching of the entire nuclear arsenals of both sides, leading to a global nuclear war, followed by a nuclear winter of about ten years, which would mean that in all likelihood not one human being would survive.
According to the U.S.-based Arms Control Association, citing senior U.S. Officials: “Biden has decided not to follow through on his 2020 pledge to declare that the sole purpose of nuclear weapons is to deter a nuclear attack against the United States or its allies. Instead, he approved a version of a policy from the Obama administration that leaves open the option to use nuclear weapons not only in retaliation to a nuclear attack, but also to respond to non-nuclear threats.”
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 139
In response to that change, Russian President Putin declared on December 9, in a press conference in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan that Russia will reconsider its nuclear doctrine to use nuclear weapons only if the existence of the Russian state is threatened, and may respond to the U.S. doctrine of preemptive strike by adopting the same policy of a preemptive strike. That means we are one step away from a thermonuclear catastrophe.
We call on all people of good will to support the offer of Pope Francis, which has been reiterated by Vatican Secretary of State Pietro Parolin, to use the venue of the Vatican for the immediate beginning of peace negotiations, without any preconditions. This is no longer an issue between Russia and Ukraine, and it never was. The Ukrainian people, like the Russian people, are victims and their suffering must stop immediately. This has become an issue of the entire human species, because if such a nuclear war happens, there will be no survivors.
We call on you to join our request for a diplomatic solution. Also join our campaign to conduct choruses in the whole world to sing the canon for peace, “Dona Nobis Pacem.” May the voices for peace move the hearts and minds of those responsible.

Earth’s Temperature: The Effect of the Sun, Water Vapor, and CO2
Abstract of above paper
The purpose of this study is to show the Sun controls the Earth’s temperature daily and over decades and millennia. A secondary objective is to show CO2 contributes to the warming of the Earth through increased enthalpy (heat content). The methodology is to record temperature and relative humidity at many weather stations around the globe to provide a picture of the constantly changing atmosphere over twelve months.
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 149
Daily measurements of the molecular fraction of CO2 are converted to weight to calculate the increasing enthalpy of the atmosphere. The Sun controls Earth’s temperature through water vapor up to the dewpoint temperature line and by direct heat radiation from the Sun above it. The enthalpy contribution by CO2 from 1750 to 2022 was up to 0.0000049 kJ/kg of dry air, equivalent to a temperature increase of 0.000181oC over 272 years. The effect of CO2 on warming the Earth has a negligible increase in Earth’s temperature.
[NOTE by Douglas Lightfoot - The approach is completely new and nothing like anyone has seen before.
We are able to determine the weight of CO2 per kilogram of dry air and from there calculate the enthalpy that it generates. Its warming effect is quantified from accurately measured data, which is another first.
CO2 has never been a significant warming gas, even 600 million years ago when it was at 4,000 ppm.
Maybe now we can get away from the concept that increasing CO2 causes global warming.
To: Ferdinand Engelbeen Industrial Chemist Belgium
Dear Ferdinand:
It occurred to me overnight that there might be a misunderstanding about psychrometric data.
We used it to show the Sun controls Earth's temperature daily by water vapor up to the blue dew point line and by natural radiation above it.
Psychrometric data is the thermodynamic properties of air containing water vapor, i.e., humid (moist) air. You can see these properties at the MegaWatSoft website: https://www.megawatsoft.com/psychrometrics.aspx
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 150
Physical measurements of the properties of air containing water vapor are the basis for psychrometric data. The data does not include CO2 because its warming effect on the atmosphere is too small to measure, as our paper shows. It appears people have never been able to measure it and include it.
Psychrometric data was developed before 1904 when W. H. Carrier made it easier to use by constructing a chart. The data has been made more accurate over time. It is proven technology. Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) engineers use it daily to design ventilation systems for people's spaces successfully.
The Supplementary Information has all the calculations by the Humidair psychrometric program for our paper. It is available at: https://setpublisher.com/pms/index.php/jbas/article/view/2425
We have confidence in the psychrometric data and the accuracy of the mole fractions of CO2 measured by Keeling. .
You have an excellent article about CO2 at: http://www.ferdinand-engelbeen.be/klimaat/co2_measurements.html
It has been helpful to respond to your message. We are now better able to defend our paper.
I hope some of the messages have been useful to you

There are people like James Lovelock who sounded climate and environment alarms, but in the end, reflected on reality and came to realistic conclusions and was happier.
There are people like Michael Shellenberger, who were anti-fossil fuels, anti-nuclear power, and man-made global warming alarmist for decades. Thought about the facts. Changed his mind completely. Is now working to solve real problems for humanity, the environment, and wildlife. Very good.
There are people like Joe Biden, John Kerry, Barack Obama, and John Holdren who have been man-made global warming, climate change, global cooling alarmists, anti fossil fuels, anti advanced nuclear power. They work hard to strip Americans of their hard earned prosperity and hand it out to others. The biggest robbery in the world.
It is encouraging to see people change like James Lovelock and Michael Shellenberger have.
It is unbelievable to see what Joe Biden, John Kerry, Barack Obama, and John Holdren do to prevent use of fossil fuels and nuclear power, and then hear their voters say how good they are.

Let’s examine PROVEN reserves and productive capacities of four producing countries closely associated with America’s oil demand.
1. Venezuela (299.3 billion barrels) – heavy oil requires more sophisticated processing resulting in higher cost for products.
2. Saudi Arabia (266.6 billion barrels) – high-capacity wells – approx. 3,500 wells can produce 12 million barrels per day. However, they are getting close to maximum capacity – presently probably 85-90%.
3. Canada (170.9 billion barrels) – tar sands produce bitumen which requires sophisticated processing. The Keystone XL pipeline out of Canada could furnish 800,000+ barrels per day.
4. Russia (80.0 billion barrels) – likely at or very near producing capacity. Near term solution only.
5. United States (25.2 billion barrels) – production from 620,000+ wells can produce a maximum of 11-12 million barrels per day. Fracked wells in shale producing basins decline rapidly and continuous drilling is necessary to maintain overall oil production rates.
The American oil industry was born in the 18 th century with the Drake well at Titusville, PA. However, the Spindletop oil discovery in Texas was the true beginning of the American oil industry. For decades many flowing wells produced thousands of barrels per day. Now, it is likely few, if any, such high rate flowing wells will be discovered. The best possibilities lie on Alaska’s North Slope (ANWR offers billion barrel reserves with the likelihood of high-rate flowing wells). Exploration of additional shale basins in the US offer sizable oil reserves. However, America will make the leap in discovery of new oil reserves to bring it up to Russia’s level of reserves. Lastly, the cost of finding and procuring these new reserves will be much higher than in the past.

Is there a solution? Yes, but it does not lie with solar or wind generated energy. It lies with nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is safe, efficient, and cost effective. For decades we have propelled our aircraft carriers, submarines and other ocean-going vessels with nuclear power without any activist fears being fulfilled, i.e., core meltdowns or any other serious accidents. In fact, what is the human/animal death count from an onshore nuclear power plant compared to other industrial plants? Unfortunately, uniformed activists and politicians have successfully fear-mongered the use of nuclear power plants and storage of nuclear waste on a scale matched only by the global warming crusaders. This being said, what is the future of nuclear reactors?
TerraPower announced it will build a next generation nuclear power demonstration reactor at Kemmerer in southwest Wyoming. Terra Power says the reactor will set the tone for a new portfolio of US advanced reactors. Further, the plant will produce nearly 300 million megawatt hours of carbon free power each year and avoid almost 2 million metric tons of carbon. The plant will also produce hydrogen to create synthetic fuels or decarbonize the oil refining process. Two other advanced reactors are expected to be constructed in the Northwest. Hopefully these projects will not be subjected to unreasonable protests and political misinformed dialogue.
Our transition from fossil fuels should begin now. We should continue the use of fossil fuels for transportation, power generation, and manufactured products.

UAH vs RSS satellite global average temperature compilations
[NOTE: Richard Greene: Predictions of the future global average temperature, which can be considered to be climate astrology, are NOT simple extrapolations of the global warming trend from 1975 through 2020. Never forget that climate predictions are for a global warming rate 2x to 3x faster than the cherry picked 1975 to 2020 period. Actually, 1940 to 1975 was originally measured as a significant global cooling period. But that fact was "inconvenient" for the 'CO2 causes dangerous global warming' narrative, so climate reality was gradually "adjusted away" (aka Science fraud by government bureaucrats with science degrees).]

The records show that the rise in temperature precedes the rise in the concentration of atmospheric CO2 (i.e., [CO2]). Therefore, the claim that CO2 is responsible for "global warming" is non-causal and violates the very basis of science. It is like claiming that the bullet left the gun before the trigger was pulled! The causal relationship is that the rise in temperature causes the rise in [CO2] in the atmosphere. The change in temperature is related to the orbit of the earth around the sun and the variation in the angle of rotation, together with the natural cycles in the output of the sun. Human activity has no impact on that. Start with Aristotle's "Physiks" that was published in about 450 BC, which first formulated "cause and effect" and work up from there!

Introduction
Richard McPherson has had an amazing career in most aspects of nuclear power technology and government department bureaucracy. Now, at an age where many are long retired, he is working full time to promote better worldwide planning for energy, water, agriculture, peace, and prosperity.
Here is an important short message to Llewellyn King:
Llewellyn, thank you for reminding us of the atrocities of men, who are unlike us. Those men were performing work under the direction of Adolf Hitler. People want to live in peace. They want a family, job and a better education for their children than they had. They want safe water to drink, adequate food to eat and be good neighbors. We know after 48- years of experience from graduating from West Point President Dwight D. Eisenhower offered the world peace and a better living on December 8, 1953 at the United Nations, in his “Atoms for Peace” speech. Men answering the call at the time of a previous brutal communist dictator made sure that did not happen. Here we are 69-years later. We have witnessed almost continuous wars created by mostly communists. For example, by Putin attacking the free country of Ukraine. Once again, but on a far greater scale than you and other journalists viewed at Distomo, Greece. America is once again poised and able to provide the world with nuclear energy for supporting clean water, agriculture and jobs. Who is going to be the Dwight Eisenhower of today to say so. The closest person I know is John Shanahan in Colorado with followers of his work on energy education in 124 countries (www.allaboutenergy.com). Thank you for all you have done to help educate people over many decades. I believe you, John and I have the ability to reach millions of people seeking a better life. We should.

Putting in the Molten Salt Nuclear Battery for this project will employ thousands of Americans, while creating visible deterrence to be seen by China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Russia.
It will also serve as an example of what can be done on other continents like Africa.

With one exception: we suffer from a stifling political and ideological orthodoxy. The central tenet of that orthodoxy is that all personal problems of the people in society can be solved by government taxing and spending. The obvious corollary is that since all problems can be solved by taxing and spending, therefore they must be solved by taxing and spending, and anyone who stands in the way of those solutions is immoral. A few subsidiary tenets of the orthodoxy include: the government has infinite capacity to tax and spend and does not need to make any choices about spending priorities; the government has an infinite ability to borrow; an appropriate function of government is to take on all down-side risk of life so that no individual ever needs to worry about loss of anything; the government can achieve a perfect society by ordering the people to behave in appropriate ways, in which case they will do so without any attempts at evasion or any unintended consequences; the current built environment is optimal and all attempts to change it in any way must be opposed at all costs; usage of energy is a human right, but all actual known methods of producing energy are environmentally unacceptable; new, fancier, and higher-priced stores and restaurants are ruining the neighborhood; and labor unions improve the lives of workers with no adverse consequences.

Oil from a Critical Raw Material Perspective
Today approximately 90% of the supply chain of all industrially manufactured products depend on the availability of oil derived products, or oil derived services. As the source material for various types of fuels, oil is a basic prerequisite for the transportation of large quantities of goods over long distances. Oil, alongside information technology, container ships, trucks and aircraft form the backbone of globalization and our current industrial ecosystem.
It’s Time to Wake Up - The Currently Known Global Mineral reserves Will Not Be Sufficient
No matter what minerals will be needed, we will need large quantities of them as the renewable power sources like wind and solar, require extensive mineral resources to manufacture the infrastructure for fossil-free energy.
And there is a challenge. Given the estimated required number of Electric Vehicles (EV’s) of different vehicle class, it is clear that there are not enough minerals in the currently reported global reserves to build just one generation of batteries for all EV’s and stationary power storage, in the global industrial ecosystem as it is today.

They will wonder how the resulting green political agenda, though originally well intended, led to the legislation of mitigation strategies that were scientifically unnecessary, economically unaffordable, technically unachievable and, in the final analysis, socially unacceptable.
They will wonder why farming was severely curtailed, based on a misperception of the role of methane, despite an ideal climate for agriculture and a world food shortage.
They will wonder how there was no understanding of the scientific fact that mitigation, even if achieved at a global level, as had already been proven in the pandemic, would have an imperceptible decadal impact on the carbon-dioxide content of the atmosphere."

James Peacock is Chairman of “The Right Climate Stuff”, TRCS, a 501 c 3 organization.
It studies climate change, the role of carbon dioxide, the importance of fossil fuels and nuclear power for the modern world, and the problems with wind and solar energy.
He is a retired NASA aerospace engineer, USAF R & D, Apollo, Sky Lab, & Space Shuttle. The TRCS members consist of retired scientists and engineers from NASA space programs and others invited from academia and industry.
They have taken this quote as an important part of their policy: It doesn’t matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn’t matter how smart you are, If it doesn’t agree with the experiment, it’s wrong. Richard Feynman, 1918-1988.
The power and uniqueness of our approach is that we used only two sets of data as inputs to the analysis. We accepted the fact that the earth's global temperature is the result of a few thousand years of natural climate variations. We took the measured rise in CO2 caused by fossil fuel emissions since 1850, and the current accepted value of average global temperature for the two variables. It is unnecessary to have a complete computer analysis of 20 or so input variables. Correctly modeling the input of all functions is impossible, because all inputs are not well known. This problem has confounded all attempts to solve this complex problem by use of computerized climate models for the last 41 years. We came up with a solution that passes the test of validation by comparison with measured data in two years.
Their conclusions, based on empirical data, are clear: The warming of the atmosphere caused by increased amounts of CO2 is small and insignificant, only about one degree centigrade for this century. Our further studies show that the claims of climate change causing more frequent and more severe hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, floods, sea level rise, forest fires, etc. are false.

How Carbon Dioxide Emissions Change the Climate
To sum: The radiative effect of added CO2 to the atmosphere is a first order climate forcing and its influence on global warming has been robustly demonstrated. The biogeochemical effect of added carbon dioxide is also a first order climate forcing and results in significant changes to regional climate. Quantifying them is complicated.
The biogeochemical effect and the radiative effect interact as well.
Carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels, and other alterations to the carbon cycle, result in a warming of the planet from what would have occurred otherwise. They also contribute to changes in vegetation and soil dynamics, with resulting substantial effects on climate and weather.

⤋ Climate
We are faced with the great challenge of limiting global warming to below 2°C. The science is clear: global warming is driven by greenhouse-gas emissions which are the result of burning fossil fuels. If we fail to strongly reduce these emissions and to bend the warming curve, we, our neighbors and children will be exposed to intolerable risks. The scientific consensus as represented by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been continuously reaffirmed by the most eminent scientific academies, including the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences which have congregated several times over the past years to address the topics of climate change and global sustainability (2–5). As any further delay to mitigation measures may jeopardize climate stability and thus our future, it is time to form alliances, find common ground and act together as humankind but also to take on individual responsibility and change what is in our power to change.

Introduction
Murry Salby was one of the few real experts in atmospheric physics and climate science. He had extensively studied the main processes controlling the Earth-Atmosphere System and was able to deduce from this the true connections of increasing greenhouse gases and a changing climate. In times that are more determined by pseudo-science than serious climate science we have lost an important voice standing up for the true values in science and research and, even more so, in spite of the great personal attacks and existential impairments he had to bear over recent years. We pay the greatest tribute to Murry Salby for his extensive scientific work which has contributed to a much deeper understanding of climate processes.
We mourn the loss of a great colleague and friend.

f) It is all from fossil fuels.
Each side has points that make sense. What is disappointing is that many of these scientists walk out and the scientific discussion stops there. John Shanahan

Comments to IMF on “The Great Carbon Arbitrage”, June 20, 2022. Excerpts:
For the record, we agree that:
1) The world has on average warmed during the past 150 years, after a cooling period of the Little Ice Age, from ~1300 to ~1800 AD, not mentioning earlier climatic shifts.
2) CO2 and CH4 are green-house gases and have contributed, along with other climate forcings, to the measured global temperature increase during the past 150 years
3) Humans contribute to this measured warming, include but are not limited to the increased GHG concentration in the atmosphere (namely CO2 and CH4), which appear to be largely of anthropogenic origin over the past 150 years.

4) Most importantly, we are certain that you will agree – and if not we ask you to please reply which point you do not agree with and why – with our view that humankind should
a) Minimizing the environmental impact of our energy systems along the entire value chain and life-cycle, environmental impact include emissions and non-emissions,
b) Increase material efficiency of energy systems (use less raw materials for each unit of energy produced),
c) Increase net-energy efficiency of our energy systems (use less input energy for each unit of energy produced)
d) Increase efficiency of energy consumption (get the maximum result from the least energy consumed)

The Unpopular Truth about Electricity and the Future of Energy
Electricity is to modern civilization what blood is to the human body. Understanding how electricity works becomes more imperative as its importance grows significantly with the increasing electrification of transport, industry, and heating + the increasing share of wind and solar.
Lars Schernikau and William H. Smith's new book is not only an introduction to electricity systems and electricity costs, but it also touches on primary energy and transportation. The book concludes with thoughts on the future of energy and suggestions for energy policy, taking into account the new challenges that come with global efforts to “decarbonize”.
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 219
Prof. Everett, energy economist, writes:
● “Despite numerous policy initiatives and the expenditure of trillions of dollars on alternatives, fossil fuels remain the dominant source of energy throughout the world, and their use continues to grow in absolute terms. To understand the reasons for this seeming contradiction, Lars and Bill have compiled a complete overview of how the global energy economy actually works, as opposed to the way it is presented in popular media.
● In articulating important principles for electricity specifically and energy in general, Lars and Bill have scrupulously avoided taking partisan positions and are offering information that will be important and useful to everyone. This is an invaluable reference work that should be on the bookshelf of anyone interested in energy policy, electricity markets, and environmental protection. ”
Topics covered in the book include:
● Primary energy vs. electricity
● Wind and solar (or what is revered to as variable “renewable” energy)
● Capacity factors
● Installed capacity vs. generated electricity
● Hydrogen and batteries
● Raw material input
● Transmission and distribution
● Heat pumps
● Energy shortages and energy starvation
● Net energy returns (eROI)
● Full Cost of Electricity (FCOE) vs. the marginal – most commonly used –Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE)
● “Net-Zero”, “decarbonization”, and the “energy transition”
● … concluding with a realistic future of energy and sustainability.

Some scientists focus on the global average flow of CO2 between the atmosphere, the top layer of the ocean, the deep ocean, and life and mankind’s activities on land. This is net one directional flow analysis, where flows actually go in both directions at different locations on the planet. It may be scientifically sound, but it doesn’t easily relate to observed climate changes for ordinary people.
Other scientists use spectral analysis of electromagnetic radiation from sunlight entering the atmosphere and infrared radiation going out after it interacts with “greenhouse gasses,” mainly H2O and CO2. This is obviously the correct heat balance analysis for global warming, But it does not easily relate to “climate change” for the general public. These analyses do not explain ice ages and warm periods in between. They just explain the interaction of infrared radiation with “greenhouse” gasses.
Some scientists claim that all the additional atmospheric CO2 in the last 200 years is natural. Others claim it is from the use of fossil fuels. The two sides don’t speak to each other constructively. Progress on resolving this question is near a standstill.
Joe Biden and John Kerry promised trillions of taxpayer dollars to other nations at COP27 in Egypt because they claim that the United States has caused catastrophic man-made global warming from use of fossil fuels. BS!
Joe Biden, John Kerry, Barack Obama, John Holdren, Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi have robbied Americans and redistributed their hard earned savings . They put Bonnie and Clyde, Al Capone, and Wall Street white collar criminals to shame.

Fossil fuels are essential. Replace them eventually with synthetic liquid and gas fuels made with energy from nuclear power.
Wind and solar energy and battery backup are not good for modern economies. Unreliable, variable, don’t work a lot of the time in many places. Environmental nightmares in mining and waste disposal. Materials for batteries are needed for other battery applications with much higher priority for serving people.
Mining pollution, area of ground use, unreliable power production, need for battery or fossil fuel backup, end of life disposal are very serious problems for wind and solar.

Nuclear power expansion and new technologies should be developed as quickly as possible, but worldwide expansion to 100% nuclear power for electricity everywhere will not happen in 50 or 100 years. There are many reasons that it will take longer.
Electricity is the most important energy source because it controls almost everything else. Lose electricity and we lose everything.
Major power sources should be protected from terrorism and acts of war. Loss of electricity means losing the war.
Change technologies from current nuclear power that uses about 1% of the nuclear energy in the ore to nuclear technologies that use most of the energy in the ore as soon as possible. Reprocess used nuclear fuel from Light Water Reactors.
South Africa has excellent scientists, engineers, and ideas. Pay attention to energy professionals in this country.
Some nuclear power professionals, nuclear power organizations, and advocates in the USA, UK, and European Union claim that carbon dioxide from fossil fuels causes harmful global warming and that nuclear power can help solve this so-called problem.
Other nuclear power professionals claim that carbon dioxide is far from the main cause of climate change. They respect CO2as the molecule of life.

Energy is the only universal currency: one of its many forms must be transformed to get anything done. Universal manifestations of these transformations range from the enormous rotations of galaxies to thermonuclear reactions in stars. On Earth they range from the terra-forming forces of plate tectonics that part ocean floors and raise new mountain ranges to the cumulative erosive impacts of tiny raindrops. Life on Earth - despite decades of attempts to catch a meaningful extraterrestrial signal, still the only life in the universe we know of - would be impossible without the photosynthetic conversion of solar energy into phytomass (plant biomass). Humans depend on this transformation for their survival, and on many more energy flows for their civilized existence.

The main reason that Bret Stephens gets a down arrow rating is that he equates the changing climate in Greenland with catastrophic man-made global warming from use of fossil fuels. He, like many other people, needs to learn the Scientific Method, before they rush off with his kind of conclusions. Other than that he quotes many careful researchers and their conclusions. This is good.
Apocalypse Not
Yes, Greenland’s Ice is Melting But…
FOR YEARS, I saw myself not as a global-warming denier (a loaded term with its tendentious echo of Holocaust denial) but rather as an agnostic on the causes of climate change and a scoffer at the idea that it was a catastrophic threat to the future of humanity.
It’s not that I was unalterably opposed to the idea that, by pumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, modern civilization was contributing to the warming by 1 degree Celsius and the inches of sea-level rise the planet had experienced since the dawn of the industrial age. It’s that the severity of the threat seemed to me wildly exaggerated and that the proposed cures all smacked of old-fashioned statism mixed with new-age religion.
Greenland is about the size of Alaska and California combined and, except at its coasts, is covered by ice that in places is nearly two miles thick. Even that’s only a fraction of the ice in Antarctica, which is more than six times as large. But the Arctic is warming at nearly four times the global average, meaning Greenland’s ice also poses a nearer-term risk because it is melting faster. If all its ice were to melt, global sea levels would rise by some 24 feet.
Measuring ice loss on scales so vast is no easy task, since Greenland, like a spendthrift billionaire, is both constantly accumulating and shedding almost unfathomable quantities of ice over long spans of time. But scientists have been drilling ice-core samples from Greenland for decades, giving them a very good idea of climatic changes stretching back thousands of years. Better yet, a pair of satellites that detect anomalies in Earth’s gravity fields has been taking measurements of the sheet regularly for nearly 20 years, giving scientists a much more precise idea of what is happening.
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 234
The data shows unmistakably that Greenland’s ice is not in balance. It is losing far more than it is gaining. … … …
Even the poorest countries, while still unacceptably vulnerable, are suffering far fewer human and economic losses to climate-related disasters.
To bring carbon emissions to net zero, the world needs significantly more minerals … …
Nobody brings the point home better than Vaclav Smil, whose most recent book, “How the World Really Works,” should be required reading for policymakers and anyone interested in a serious discussion about climate solutions. … …
The poster child for this kind of magical thinking is Germany, which undertook a historic Energiewende “energy revolution” only to come up short. At the turn of the century, Germany got about 85 percent of its primary energy from fossil fuels. Now it gets about 78 percent, a puny reduction, considering that the country has spent massive sums on renewables to increase the share of electricity it generates from them.
Some individuals featured on this website advocate nuclear power as a solution to so-called man-made global warming. That is scientifically impossible. Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant. It is the molecule of life. We recommend that these advocates change their position to nuclear power being less polluting than all other energy sources and drop the claim that nuclear power solves man-made global warming.

⤋ Depopulating the world
This is important as a chilling reminder of how we got to: climate hysteria, redistribution of land, government control, and so on. You know the list. It is linked and "clubbed" together, to instill an abnormal fear and compliance. This is being stitched together yearly, and the agenda becomes more transparent by the day.
David Rockefeller and Maurice Strong
By far the most influential organizer of Rockefeller’s ‘zero growth’ agenda in the early 1970s was David Rockefeller’s friend, a billionaire oilman named Maurice Strong.
Canadian Maurice Strong was one of the key early propagators of the scientifically flawed theory that man-made CO2 emissions from transportation vehicles, coal plants and agriculture caused a dramatic and accelerating global temperature rise which threatens “the planet”, so-called Global Warming.
As chairman of the 1972 Earth Day UN Stockholm Conference, Strong promoted an agenda of population reduction and lowering of living standards around the world to “save the environment.”
Strong stated his radical ecologist agenda:
“Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?”
************

Earth Summit I and Rio Earth Summit
By 1971 Strong was named Undersecretary of the United Nations in New York and Secretary General of the upcoming Earth Day conference, United Nations Conference on the Human Environment (Earth Summit I) in Stockholm, Sweden. He was also named that year as a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation – which financed his launch of the Stockholm Earth Day project.[x] In Stockholm the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) was created with Strong as its head.
By 1989 Strong was named by the UN Secretary General to head the 1992 UN
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 238
Conference on Environment and Development or UNCED (“Rio Earth Summit II”). He oversaw the drafting of the UN “Sustainable Environment” goals there, the Agenda 21 for Sustainable Development that forms the basis of Klaus Schwab’s Great Reset, as well as creation of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of the UN. Strong, who was also a board member of Davos WEF, had arranged for Schwab to serve as a key adviser to the Rio Earth Summit.
As Secretary General of the UN Rio Conference, Strong commissioned a report from the Club of Rome, The First Global Revolution, authored by Alexander King which admitted that the CO2 global warming claim was merely a ruse to force change:
“The common enemy of humanity is man.In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came upwith the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming,water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All thesedangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only throughchanged attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome.The real enemy then, is humanity itself.”
President Clinton’s delegate to Rio, Tim Wirth, admitted the same, stating,
“We have to ride the global warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing for economic and environmental policy.”
At Rio Strong first introduced the manipulative idea of “sustainable society” defined in relation this arbitrary goal of eliminating CO2 and other so-called Greenhouse Gases. Agenda 21 became Agenda 2030 in Sept 2015 in Rome, with the Pope’s blessing, with 17 “sustainable” goals. It declared among other items,
“Land, because of its unique nature and the crucial role it plays in human settlement, cannot be treated as an ordinary asset, controlled by individuals and subject to the pressures and inefficiencies of the market. Private land ownership also is a principal instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to social injustice…Social justice, urban renewal, and development, the provision of decent dwellings and healthy conditions for the people can only ‘be achieved if land is used in the interests of society as a whole.”
Private land ownership must become socialized for “society as a whole,” an idea well-known in Soviet Union days, and a key part of the Davos Great Reset.

Claims about fusion nuclear power to drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions
⤊ Fossil fuels
Fossil fuels have an energy density second only to nuclear. Solar and wind require
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 255
enormous geographical areas and are very low in energy density. Fossil fuels will be harder to find and more expensive. It will take time to create synthetic alternatives. We should preserve the remaining fossil fuels for materials such as plastic.
⤊ Nuclear
Nuclear fission and fusion, small modular or very large, is the ultimate energy source. The goal is to remove obstacles that have made nuclear costly. Abundant and cheap energy has significantly advanced living standards. Nuclear will consistently provide energy for all things including synthetic fuels, and desalinated water without despoiling the beauty of the land.
Truly educated people in a broad range of disciplines have a common trait. They consistently ask and seek the answer to the question “but is it true?” BIIT or equivalent is the core of critical thinking. Those who don’t ask such questions are at best mal-educated pseudoscientists to charlatans at their worst. We are now in an era where a preferred narrative trumps BIIT. Just asking the question never mind the investigation can result in severe sanctions from universities, governments, social media, major publications and of course, the self-appointed “elite.”
I have straddled science and engineering most of my careers. A major difference is that scientists can be wrong but engineers cannot. When a bridge falls down or a rocket explodes, the engineers are held accountable. Scientists should not have that burden because we want them exploring the frontiers of knowledge where they can be wrong but still keep pursuing the truth. The Italians held some geoscientists accountable for NOT predicting a devastating earthquake? That is just wrong and likely ended all Italian earthquake research. If they kept the stilted language of scientific papers by not being too precise they may have avoided prosecution. Pseudoscientists who create and support false narratives should be prosecuted. In several of my listed articles you will see that I had unique knowledge of how photons of light interact with molecules and I consulted with the Rome NY Airforce Lab to create a computer program and models of the HITRAN database.
My “bovine scatology” (better known as BS) filter alarmed when the mal-educated/charlatans announced that the science was settled; carbon dioxide caused global warming. I knew that a thorough analysis of the HITRAN spectra would definitively prove the innocence of CO2. Unfortunately I was not smart enough to complete it. In 2020 W. A. Van Wijngaarden and Will Happer succeeded!
Engineers are trained to look at alternative ways to solve problems so I looked at counting how many “greenhouse” related molecules and photons were engaged at any
Main Report 1 - Countries/Organizations Part 2 - Individuals 256
one time. My results correlate with Van Wijngaarden and Happer. There are multiple orders of magnitude more absorbing molecules than photons to be absorbed. Even double the CO2 will make a nearly undetectable difference.
Fossil fuels and petrochemicals have provided the abundant cheap energy and advanced materials that has lifted most of mankind from abject poverty to the highest standards of living in all of human history. Now “virtue signalers” want to tell the rest of the very poor “sorry, you don’t qualify.”
My Galactic Visitor essays are about how someone from a far civilization primarily powered by hydrogen and nuclear thought how marvelous and efficient was our use of petroleum fuels. Their planet did not have petroleum so the visitor returned home to use nuclear power to produce liquid fuels.
The primary argument against nuclear power is the public’s fear of radiation. As a nuclear trained submariner, I once turned a 5 REM film badge black. That got my attention! Years of research led to the piece on Radiation Damage to People. It turns out that we humans have well developed resistance to radiation damage.
