Solar generated electricity is responsible for 10x the death rate of nuclear per TWh I expect you have a source to back that up? Or just something elese you made up? I know it's a lie because no-one knows the final death toll for nuclear incidents. |

The thing that always strikes me with long hindsight, is actually how little lingering radiation had any effect at all, and how small the area of destruction was compared with e.g. Dresden., The chief effect of atomic weapons, which was played up to make them strategically far more effective deterrents than they actually were, was fear. Everyone who had them had a vested interest in making them as scary as possible. With unfortunate results 70 years on -- Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc-ra-cy) €“ a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers. |

Indeed, so to get those figures, they have taken the absolutely worst case, based upon the linear no threshold model, which is generally accepted to heavily overestimate the casualty rate. If you take known and provable deaths, rooftop solar kills 100 x as many per TWh. Colin Bignell |

I know it's a lie because no-one knows the final death toll for nuclear incidents. All you can do it make assumptions and take the worst case predictions based on a methodology (LNT) that we know is wrong and over pessimistic. If you do that, then nuclear is still far safer than other options. If you make a more realistic assessment, then its even safer still. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |

How about making the same worst case assesment for solar and wind.. a hurrican rips all the UK panels off the roofs and kills 3 million passers by.. the windturbines all get ripped of their bearings and crash into the grid lines causing massive fires and country wide blackouts, killing loads of people in RTCs and those on life support. Maybe 'arry prefers worst case? |

Colin Bignell Its probably stuff made from wool.. the pesticides in it could make it a sick building making it unfit for human habitation so only 'arry could live there. |
