Scientists for Future, October 2021: Nuclear Energy is no technology for solving the Climate Crisis
  • The overwhelming majority of "nuclear waste" can be reprocessed into more fuel. We simply choose not to in many countries.

    Nuclear waste does nothing but sit and become less radioactive. It doesn't harm our food, our air, or warm our planet.

  • What TV shows or movies best exemplify simple living?

    I'm not much of a media consumer, and when I am I find Youtube channels better exemplify the simple living lifestyle (plenty out of Japan). However, every once in a while I stumble upon characters or plots in mainstream media that resonate with my simple living values. Years ago, I truly enjoyed the film Under the Tuscan Sun (though the book was vastly different and superior). More recently, I have been enthralled with the television series Somebody Somewhere.

    What series or films do you enjoy that best encapsulate your simple living ideals?

  • I disagree completely. This text is oddly biased and in parts, completely false. It also dates from 2021.

    Nuclear power is the single safest power source ever devised and does not suffer from intermittency. The fearmongering from anti-nuclear, anti-science campaigners in the 1970s was nothing but a gift to coal and advanced climate change by five years.

    Climate change is an existential threat. Nuclear power is one of the answers.

    I made oatmeal for breakfast today....

    Not the fancy quick kind, but the slow, rolled oats kind which is lower on the glycemic index.

    As I was eating it plain, I noticed that it was cooler than usual while the humidity wasn't bad.

    Seizing this rare opportunity in the South, I opened my doors and windows, threw caution to the wind, and kept cooking. One nice lentil stew and some baked salmon later (which I will enjoy for lunch and dinner), I closed up the house knowing that I saved maybe $0.10 in air conditioning.

    Not all heroes wear capes gentlemen.

    ourworldindata.org Many countries have become much more supportive of same-sex relationships

    When I was born in 1993, one-third of people in the United Kingdom said they “would not want homosexual neighbors”. Today, that’s less than 5%.

    what's the easiest way to see if I can afford to move out?
    1. Track what you eat over a week.
    2. Go pretend grocery shopping for those items and add up the costs.
    3. If you want to save money, learn to cook and buy staples (rice, pasta, pinto beans) in bulk. Just ensure you have insect-proof containers for them.
