Obelix Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 feel free to move to japan to help get the current nuclear reactors safe then if its so safe the workers there giving their own lives to avert was has been described as a catastrophe ARE heroes. oh and i heard china have put on hold their plans to build some nuclear reactors in light of current events Whose giving their own lives? The workers at the plant are all well under the accepted safe limits so I don't see why you feel the need to wrap the whole thing up in such emotive terms. The trouble is it's clueless people who scream "oooh nuclear bad, radiation baaaad, oooh nasty because, because, well... it's radiation innit" that force Govt's to do stupid things like shut down plants and not build new ones. Hence the reason why German is hutting all theirs down and will just burn more brown coal. But it's safe though innity - cos there's no raditaion risk from coal right? Wrong. You get a larger dose from combusted coal than you do from a nuclear plant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obelix Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Oh give over - you are not even in command of the facts so don't pretend you know what the dose levels are from coal fired vs nuclear. And since I'm certain you are not an expert don't pretend you are even qualified to tell me what I do and do not know... Like I said - clueless people shouting radiation is baaaaaad.... with neither the wit nor wisdom to know if they should or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess why they are doing short shifts - so they don't go over the limit Guess why they have a limit - so they don't get sick Guess what - they are not getting sick.
