Sorry guys Video power went out at the end
(*****At the time of this video we had no idea things were going to be this bad (all we knew at the time was that the Nuclear reactors had been forced to shut down and that Power to the water pumps had been cut off (our thoughts go out to the people of Japan)
This is one of those topics i really didnt even want to mention (although i have been thinking about it for years) but the forced shut down of several Nuclear reactors in Japan after the historic 9.0 earthquake cracked the door open enough for me to share some of my opinions on the subject
IMHO Nuclear power was an Insane "choice" for energy even in a safe interglacial world because its waste products are deadly for over 250,000 years (50 times longer than written human history)
In an IceAge World it may well be a gaurantee of mass extictions and the end of the age of Man
To be honest i question if we will even make it to the next Iceage because IMHO the worlds Nuclear plants will be unable to weather the transition period of..Historic Earthquakes/ Storms/ Floods..that i see before us.
Humanity must end Nuclear Power and get Nuclear waste under control if we hope to survive
