Soooooo, where is the Warming?

LOL - an “expert on energy” who relies upon a “high level DC lobbyist” as the basis for his position. Solid.

The Shellenberger guy is a lobbyist.

He lobbied hard for Ohio HB6, which gave millions to the nuclear industry he supports and lobbies for.

It is also the bill that got millions of money flowing to the Ohio Speaker of the House, causing his indictment.
The energy company pled guilty.

Kind of like the Dems relying on a Puerto Rican bartender for their green energy policy.

Yeah, we've heard the pubs position:

“In case we had forgotten, because we keep hearing that 2020 has been the warmest year on record, I ask the chair, do you know what this is? It’s a snowball, just from outside here. It’s very, very cold out.” — Sen. James Inhofe (Okla.)

It's hot, it's cold, greenland ain't melting, NASA is full of shit.

So, is he wrong about the need for more nuclear energy?

Discedit the argument not the person.

I'm not a real big fan of nuclear because of the waste disposal challenges.

[GoMuskies]

They're not particularly difficult challenges (absent NIMBYism). And no other zero carbon energy source works on a large enough scale.

[paulxu]

Hah! We're way past that point in SC, with units closing down before starting...and of course the Savannah River site challenges.

What waste disposal challenges?

[paulxu]

What waste disposal challenges?

High Level Waste with long life radioactivity awaiting a permanent solution.

Well, here in the US we have two ideal locations for permanent disposal of nuclear waste (Yucca Mountain and NTS). I’ll add that the amount of nuclear waste generated for power production is a tiny fraction of that generates by coal. Problem solved.
