• Carl Pope, Executive Director of The Sierra Club - Anti-Nuclear Hogwash on Huffington Post

  Carl Pope, one of the predictable opponents to any talk of using atomic fission at an antidote to oil, coal and gas addiction, has published a new propaganda piece rehashing many old and false arguments against nuclear power. You can find it on the Huffington Post under the title of About That Nuclear Revival... . Over many years, I have learned that the best cure for propaganda and misinformation...

• Once Again Harvey Wasserman Is Wrong - This Time He Is Wrong About New Nuclear Power In Ohio

  Harvey Wasserman, a perennial anti-nuclear advocate, has once again posted a polemic against new nuclear power developments . In Ohio, an industrial state in the upper midwest where 85% of the electricity is provided by burning coal and where the ranks of the unemployed continue to grow as the manufacturing base of the United States continues to shrink, Wasserman is selling a vision of a solar powered...

  If you have followed any of my recent Twitter posts, (atomicrod) you will note that I have been involved for a day or so in an ongoing discussion with an anti-nuclear California lawyer from Marina Del Rey named Roger Sowell on Joe Romm's Climate Progress blog. It has been an enlightening experience. Here is one of the quotes from Mr. Sowell's recent comments: I strongly oppose nuclear power...

• Useful discussion by pro and anti-nuclear activists

  After reading Nick Loris's comment about nuclear waste, I decided to read some more of his observations. I don't know about you, but I find it very useful when a site has an author link that leads to a page with an archive of other work by that same author. One of the recent blogs that Nick wrote was titled Don’t Be Fooled Again by the Anti-Nuclear Crowd . With a title like that, how could...
