New nuclear reactor to be built in Finland - Stefan Hauk

Construction on a new nuclear plant was started in Finland today. There was only a mild protest from the "greenies". Many of the "greenies" have come to understand that it requires massive resources of concrete and steel to build wind mills. They have learned that current solar energy technology requires massive areas to gather the "juice" and long distribution lines to take the "juice" to the city.

Perhaps, one can say that the "greenies" are accepting the laws of economics. If the protesters will get out of the way, new nuclear power plants will cut the burning of hundreds of millions of tons of coal annually. The planet will be blessed when nuclear energy allows us to stop burning fossil fuels in cars and in electrical plants.
