We of course are completely blameless. What about that fire in the
fifties that sent radioactive smoke all over the place, or leaks from
winscale so big they had to rename it. Now we have loads of mothballed end
of life reactors all waiting forsome way to decommission them.
The Russians now design better reactor buildings. One of the main
problems. However trying to make old plant carry on for too long is a
recipe for disaster.
The French have a a heck of a lot of reactors soon to come to supposed end
of life, I wonder what they will do?

I actually think we need Nuclear as a bridge between fosil and other
fuels.

There are no other viable fuels.

However someone needs to sit down and think about end of life when they
make them in the first place.

Or just design them so its easy to fill them with concrete when
they are no longer useful and don't try to decommission them.

We ain't seen nuthin' yet?

Russian sniffing round UK nuclear programme
Rosatom the Russian state backed outfit displays interest in UK
future reactor programme.
So the people that ran Chernobyl want to build a reactor in the UKs
most likely Tsunami zone. (Severn Estuary)

When Chernobyl exlpoded, 400 times more radioactivity than the
Hiroshima bmb was released into the atmosphere.
Nearly a million people have died soon due to cancer according to
some.
