Safe, cheap and abundant energy – back to the nuclear energy future
“To provide [electricity] in today’s world, an ‘advanced reactor’ must improve over existing reactors in the following 4-core objectives. It must produce significantly less costly, cost-competitive clean electricity, be safer, produce significantly less waste and reduce proliferation risk. It is … Continue reading
Global environmental priorities are much broader than wind and solar power
Mitigation of black carbon – and sulphur dioxide – emissions proceed with current technologies and improve health and environmental outcomes. Mitigation of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel use will need a range of technologies in a number of sectors – … Continue reading
Greenhouse gas solutions
Emissions of greenhouse gases comes from a variety of sources – solutions must address the diverse technologies behind emissions. To begin with – however – reducing population pressure is best addressed through better health, education and welfare outcomes best achieved … Continue reading
