This FRIGHTENING video is much overstated IMHO. Nonetheless, many legitimate points are raised. Meanwhile, GE airs adverts about how its locomotives are ‘friends’ with the trees (‘friendly’ CO₂ releases?). The sad truth is that there IS no such thing as a ‘safe’ nuclear power plant:

► Risk assessment is purposely skewed to the overly optimistic side of the ledger.
► ‘Unforeseen’ events are given insufficient analysis and weight.
► Undereducated/undertrained reactor operators and technicians are incapable of reacting properly to even minor nuclear emergencies.
► Except in extreme cases, risks due to radiation exposure can only be assessed statistically.

While everything is working ‘to spec’ in a nuclear fission reactor, they are sources of (relatively) clean, (relatively) safe and (relatively) cheap energy. But when things go wrong, they can go very, VERY wrong indeed. We’ve seen this from Idaho’s oft-forgotten ‘SL-1’ to 3-Mile-Island to Chernobyl and now to Fukushima. In every case, operator error either caused the accident or exacerbated its effects. We have an unacceptable track record with nuke power plants. It only takes ONE Core Meltdown to ruin your WHOLE DAY.

Corporate and Government subsidies, obfuscation and outright LIES point back DIRECTLY to the 1%.
