Sir, I am so pleased that Mr Harper has a bill to reduce carbon
emissions! What better way to replace our present nuclear reactors
,with much smaller output of residues, and cheaper than any alternate
source of electricity, including decommissioning. Has he had his recent
electricity bill? Does he recognise that we are can reuse our “waste”
by reprocessing, briefly, into MOX, which in turn can be reprocessed
almost completely.
The CoRWM adviser has, surprise,surprise, the
Director of Greenpeace International on the committee.”Even more waste”
to harm future generations Harper predicts. What about asbestos,
eternal. What about the many human lives lost in fossil fuel
production, such as Piper Alpha, hundreds have died in the mines and
the North Sea, but NONE have died from nuclear waste over fifty years
in the UK. “Clean” Sweden has 10 reactors, Finland five, and China is
building twenty, like many others, all to save burning filthy coal.
Does he think , on a still day, of national security of our supply of
gas, which could be drastically cut by Russia, or terrorists.
Yes, we do have a safe clean source of electricity, our very own Scottish nuclear, as a major part of our supply.
