[The Greenpeace weblog] Nuclear News:Meltdown: A Gloomy Look at the Economics of Nuclear Power: Serbia will send its nuclear waste for reprocessing and disposal to Russia as part of a new agreement which will pave the way for economic and social development, the head of the United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said today. The $25 million project - funded by Serbia and Russia, along with the Czech Republic, the United States, IAEA and the non-governmental organization (NGO) known as the Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI) - will send spent nuclear fuel back from the Vinca facilities, on the outskirts of the Serbian capital, Belgrade, back to Russia.

[Enviralment] Co-founder of Greenpeace becomes convert for nuclear. « Enviralment: After all, the fact that Pickering will not explode is more or less common sense: if a catastrophic meltdown was really possible, would successive governments, of every political stripe, allow thousands of motorists to drive by the reactors each day on Highway 401 or, for that matter, allow millions of citizens to live just a few kilometres away? It is easy to believe that a corrupt, totalitarian regime would do so, but not a government so obsessed with safety that today, every Ontario family must stick their children in special car seats until they turn seven.

[Nuclear Reaction - A Greenpeace blog about nuclear power] Nuclear News: leading Democratic Republic of Congo human rights ...: Tandja is buoyed by projects that dwarf foreign aid and are unlikely to grind to a halt, including a US$5 billion (euro3.5 billion) deal with China to build an oil refinery and extract new crude from the desert, a US$1.7 billion (euro1.2 billion) accord with French nuclear giant Areva to build the world's second biggest uranium mine and a hydroelectric dam financed with US$50 million (euro35 million) from the Islamic Development Bank. "In the short term, it means he doesn't need to listen to anyone," said Alex Vines, an Africa specialist at London-based think-tank Chatham House.

[Commuter Outrage] The Not So Bleak Future: Nuclear Energy, Electric Cars: Third, I am not advocating that the car is (or should be) the primary mode of transport in American cities. To me, it is blatantly obvious that subways - if properly designed, managed, maintained, and operated - are the best way to move lots of people around densely populated cities in a timely and comfortable fashion.

[GreenpeaceUSA Blog] Remembering the Three Mile Island meltdown - Greenpeace USA Blog: Saturday, March 28th, is the 30th anniversary of the reactor meltdown at the Three Mile Island nuclear plant. The nuclear industry is currently trying to portray itself as making a comeback, and working hard to paint nuclear energy as an environmentally friendly solution to global warming.

[Green Inc.] A 'Nuclear Renaissance' Stumbles Forward - Green Inc. Blog ...: Nuclear energy be it fission or the hoped for fusion will do nothing to get the oncoming climate crisis under control as it will still be adding more energy to the overload in the biosphere already causing serious weather effects. While it does not have the releasing of GHGs and mercury that occur with fossil fuel burning, it does have the added possibly very messy, problem of fission material escaping via terrorist actions or mistakes as occurred at Chernobyl.

[Most recent content] Weblog from Greenpeace about the meltdown of the nuclear industry ...: Or how taxpayers across the world will be financially (not to mention physically) liable in the event of a nuclear accident? What about how, if we want to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by just five percent with nuclear power, we need to be building a new reactor every week until 2030?

[Greenpeace UK blogs] UK nuclear capacity in meltdown | Greenpeace UK: Again, Greenpeace seems happy to promote the burning of fossil fuel - in their much touted CHP plants - tacitly acknowledging that renewables cannot offer a complete non-nuclear solution in the coming decades. The more we use gas-fired CHP, the more we are locked into a cycle of fossil fuel dependence - at a time when we should be dismantling our gas infrastructure.

[Green Inc.] Russians Plan Floating Nuclear Plants - Green Inc. Blog - NYTimes.com: I don’t know where Spudbeach has heard that highly radioactive nuclear reactor waste “can be easily consolidated and disposed of properly.”. this is the reason U.S. reactors store the waste on-site: no means exists to dispose of the waste properly without endangering our drinking water supply for thousands of years!

[Velveteen Rabbi] Velveteen Rabbi: Pop!Tech / Mindshifts / Daniel Goleman: Goleman was talking with a guy at Greenpeace who was investigating the largest paper product company in America, trying to get them to stop sourcing from virgin forests. And the guy from the paper company said, "'We did a lifecycle assessment, we have very little chlorine, we use alternative energies, we look pretty good!

[Green Inc.] Espionage and the 'Nuclear Renaissance' - Green Inc. Blog ...: Yes, the French government does not like Greenpeace, Greenpeace does not like nuclear power, and governments will sometimes spy where they should not. We would be remarkably foolish if we somehow twist these facts into an excuse to slow the development of safe, clean and carbon-neutral nuclear power.
