Bringing American Progressives on board for a clean nuclear future
When Should Nuclear Power Plants Die? – Forbes
Shutting down a nuclear power plant with twenty good years left in its bones is not progressive. I would even suggest that it’s regressive.
And why go into decommissioning status when they could sell electricity at about 5-cents a kWhr and fuel costs less than a cent of that?
For short-term profits, of course. It’s not like these companies would lose money, it’s just they wouldn’t make as much. And that is so much more important to America than energy security or reducing CO2 emissions, or keeping jobs.

Thanks for this head’s up!
More should be concentrated, along with long overdue public nuclear education, on examining media’s blatantly uneven role in reporting nuclear energy events.
