Burning carbon an ignorant way to make heat & electrical energy if non renewable fuels like oil & coal are used for the carbon. Some biomass energy renewable if we continue doing forest management planting & ecological restoration & conservation of natural landscapes & farming & agriculture. Its really coal & oil & gasoline & diesel & jet fuel that I am talking; dirty industrialization powered by oxidizing carbon in ever increasing ways even through doing so emits climate changing exhaust gases that are toxic for people to breathe. Yes, burning carbon stupid, nuclear energy intelligent. We need cheaper nuclear reactors, small & modular that utility companies can afford & install for their customers benefit due to the advantages a grid has with distributed generation capacity. Mixing renewables like rooftop solar PV with energy storage & wind power turbines & small cheaper modular sealed automatic 4th super safe fission reactors the key to decarbonizing energy as every vehicle phased over to fully electric as gasoline & diesel are phased out to reduce air pollution near traffic corridors, in cities & towns around the world!
We are dumping toxic fumes & particles & gases into the atmosphere, making air pollution that's toxic to public health & bad for environmental health of nature. We are running natural landscapes with human overdevelopment, sprawl from billions to many people at the same time for our primitive technological state. We still have people advocating for the ongoing use of coal, so it will a long time to move human society for Nuclear Breeder Reactor Electrical state, where every vehicle fully electric & able to be charged 24/7, where all people enjoy a 10kw lifestyle without harming nature, with more applied intelligence to all systems. We need more truth & facts & diffused science. We need more physics & chemistry & math & engineering to solve all the worlds problems. Most of all we need to innovate peoples ideologies so they can believe in the changes needed to improve the world in all ways for the benefit of all people now & in the future. We are on the brink of making life future for all human generations if we do not take drastic efforts to decarbonize energy worldwide!
Clean renewable energy not a pipe dream ideal of a few zealots, clean renewable energy the most important topic in the world. In life there is matter & energy & even matter is made of energy E= MC^2 a proof that Einstein demonstrated to communication how the hydrogen atoms in a glass of water could boil off the oceans if we could harness fusion of the hydrogens into helium. 50 years of fusion research has us chasing magnetic field constrained fusion reactions that last only a few seconds in the best materials & most complex machines in the world. Fusion reactor technology needs more innovation to become competitive with well refined 4th Gen. Fission energy.
To understand why nuclear renewable, you have to understand the fuel cycles of radioactive elements & how transmutation can enrich or activate fertile elements to fossil states & how old spent nuclear waste can be turned into new nuclear fuels to burn in 4th Gen. reactors that produce significantly less waste & waste that become safe in shorter time scales, not long lived radioactive waste like old Gen. 2 reactors. Its the Thorium Fuel Cycle that's really important, especially the molten salt LFTR reactor! MSR or molten salt reactors require the development of tough ceramics that do not corrode like metals, that can machined like metals into high precision long life parts for the core of nuclear reactors. Advanced ceramics are the really innovative technology, especially those graphite sphere Triso-X pebbles of X-energy XE100 reactor! PBR or pebble bed reactors are also really cool!
Nuclear Reactors operate 24/7 & provide abundant high uptime electricity & lots of heat for other processes, like steam reformation of natural gas to green hydrogen, desalinization of sea water to fresh water & even high temperatures needed for materials processing like nuclear concrete & steel making. I see tons of room to improve the use of nuclear energy, especially the reactors heat, in heat storage batteries or heat storage systems, molten metals like sodium & salts .. back to the MSR or molten salt reactors! We can apply nuclear science & engineering to make 5th Gen. Reactors even better, safer & even more sustainable!
We need to stop with soil erosion. It takes undisturbed forests hundred of years to make soils! We can't just slash & burn our way to a better life. Look at how the Jews turned Israel into a thriving economy without selling oil to everyone. Look at how the Israelis applied technology to make life better for all the Jews living in Israel. While it's not as nice for muslim Arabs in Israel, the Jews provide evidence that applying drip irrigation & sustainable farming practices to an arid landscape intelligent & productive & they give energy efficiency examples of how people can live, even in a dangerous hostile areas surrounded by violent angry zealot muslim terrorists & hate filled dictatorships in Islamic countries // In the midwest of America there are some areas where 40 ft of soil has eroded away. People have been decrying industrialized agriculture because of ignorant watering practices that waste water & the beneficial insect ignorant overuse of toxic pesticides & poorly executed GMO label lies that engender suspicion & distrust in the public.
Internet gives more coverage of the issues, a public ledger in a way to document empirically what's happening & how its going down. We are making history together people, so lets write the book of life with more applied intelligence, like factory made sealed MMR Gen. 4 fission reactor energy units sold to millions of people worldwide to make heat & power distributed, giving people warm energy & light during natural disasters & hazards when hurricanes & earthquakes & landslides cause chaos, when tradition power distribution wires are down, when the power out for weeks or months. We need distributed energy systems to add redundancy to society, giving people the ability to make energy 24/7, power & heat, electricity & light for refrigerators & computers & charing battery electric vehicles & electronics other cool new things! I love my Segway Mini Pro, Thank you Ninebot!
Ecosystem degradation shameful & we know better than to poison one another with pollutants. Everyone knows that greed & corruption are wrong, but most people also have a price. People make mistakes & fold & chase dreams of financial freedom with more money to retire from drudgery & what some people call unpleasant work. I think the employees ideology makes the difference here. Social scientists were interviewing a pair of young Chinese women working at an appliance manufacturer in China & the one woman said the work was boring & tedious & unfulfilling while the other higher performing working thought of the work as a challenge & was competing against her self to perform better at each of the tasks on the line, destined to become a line supervisor & climb the latter!
In developed economies, including places like Shen Zen, service economies emerged atop legacy industrialization based on manufacturing, mining & making things locally. Machine mass producing goods, operated in the 3rd world by scrappy thrifty intelligent people who produce goods at remarkably low prices. Its seems amazing that we have any poverty today give all the ways that people have invented to make money. Intelligent people make goods & services to sell to other intelligent people. I had to know a lot to even know how to make use of the DJI Mini 2 video drone for my YouTube channel! We teach each other what to care about, we sell each other things & show others how we do it, we flex & show off & share & teach & people learn even through body language. I try to show all people I interact with as much love & concern as I am able.
I try to be an exceptionally kind social & extroverted person in real life but fall short in this way as in many others as an imperfect natural person devoid of genetic optimization. Today many people suffer from rare genetic defects. Other people suffer from ideological & cognitive defects. Life has become more complicated in a lot of ways & its a heavy emotional & psychological burden to take in all the facts about the world & life & all the messed up things that people do to each other & to nature with pollution & waste & inefficiency & entrenchment of old dirty & antiquated ways via corruption & bribery & other kinds of dishonesty since people are perfect at lying to each other about everything. I wish the world was better, but I have to teach other people so that we can all care about making everything better. Improving engines like Toyota did in hybrid electric vehicles by adding 2 motors & a bigger rechargeable battery pack! We need to upgrade everyone without harming nature & the only way to do this is with Nuclear Energy!
