It is because, as I have, in another thread, given figures that
clearly show nuclear power to be the safest method of power generation
by far

You are barking.

If the rods overheat they will melt down into the concrete below causing
a chemical explosion that will push radioactive materials and dust 50
metres into the air. The best is yet to come.


This incident would need to kill three times as many people as the 4,000
it is thought might, one day, die as a result of Chernobyl for nuclear
power to be no more safe than wind power. At worst, it might kill a few
dozen plant workers.
