Wrong Paul, these small reactors have been very successful.
Just ask the world's navies that have them in continuous use.
If they work in a submarine how much easier to have them used ashore ?

I am surprised how many people still believe in co2 generated warming.
I would have thought a reasonable person after hearing for 30 or 40
years about how we are going to be boiled alive they would become at
the very least a bit sceptical.

It is all very strange considering that the present known 8th warming
cycle is likely to be peaking about now or in the next 50 years or so.

I read an article by Ian Plimer recently in which he said that not
just Australia but the earth as a whole is already at net zero.
He seems to look at this matter as a geologist not an atmospheric
scientist. He says much more co2 is exhaled by the planet and absorbed
by the plants than us puny humans can generate.

It is a very interesting deduction from his geological knowledge.
So before you tear your hair out in rage at this idea I suggest you
do some reading.

Stand by, someone, guess who, will say he is in the mining industry !
So what, perhaps a new light does have to be thrown on this panic
that we are throwing all our resources at.

Bazz

I'm with you on Plimer. He's one that the legacy media won't touch, and stupid people ridicule. By the time that he is proved to be right - which will happen - it will be too late. The stupid generators will have to start all over again.

Anyone who thinks climate change can be prevented by humans has problems & anyone who thinks human caused pollution has no impact has the same problems as the former !

Hello ttbn, Indyvidual, Bezza, Alan B, Steve S, Hasbeen & other normal people who don't belong to the Chinese Communist party of Australia.

The horrendous fires in Hawaii have the same cause as Australia's horrendous bush fires, namely green-left policy which does not allow grazing animals to eat grass or a burn off in winter before the amount of fire fuel gets too high. Just like in OZ, the useless idiots were warned about this years ago.

This bill is going to harm future generations financially, via the damage done to our economy.

This yet another leftist, weaken Australia & strengthen China policy to help Communist China colonise Australia. UCSR here we come.

imacentristmoderate,

Good to see another person who 'gets it'.

"Plimer has two books questioning the existance of man-made climate. Plimer has been a director of numerous mining companies including Ivanhoe Australia, a subsidiary of Bob Friedland’s Ivanhoe Mines, CBH Resources, Kefi Minerals, Silver City Minerals, Ormil Energy Ltd, TNT Mines, Niuminco Group and Lakes Oil."

The only thing Plimer doesn't have that I know of, is shares in tobacco companies, so he could tell us how good smoking is for your health, and it has absolutely no link with lung cancer. In fact he could write a couple of books on the subject disproving all that silly medical research.
