High Level Waste And More

This is a good video which includes a discussion of high level waste, an interview with U.S. NRC Chairman Jaczko, and a discussion on China's energy growth (half of the world's power plant demand is due to China).  A highlight is great footage of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant which just received its 10,000th shipment.  It looks like it will fulfill its mission years ahead of schedule. 

But don't buy the short story on cold fusion, until Rossi provides evidence to support his claim.



Here's a recent New York Times article which highlights concerns for high level nuclear waste.  The anti-nukes in the U.S. have played the circular game of fighting any nuclear waste repository, and then citing a lack of a waste repository as a justification for not having nuclear power.
