Nuclear disaster close call

Recommended Posts


We hear very little about this otherwise noticeable incident down here, in the second-most using nuclear power in the world. I would be much more confident about foreign medias reports, not submitted to the nuclear lobby neither influenced by the oncoming elections.

*reads the thread* :blink: *reads the article* :blink: *reads the french news* :blink: *thinks on the incident and what the site of Marcoule is* :blink: *takes another look at the thread* :blink: *searches for anything to say without sounding condescending or offensive* :dntknw:

 

Oh yes, I've got it ! :idea:

 

No comment !

 

Seriously guys, overreact much ?

 

I mean, sure, nuclear security in France is not perfect (as everywhere else) but we've had far closer calls with much less publicity and you worry about that ?

I didn´t mean to say it was Fukushima or Chernobyl, but a man died, and the fact is that while it is not worth of panick, it is worth of concern. France put a hard bet on nuclear power, and in Spain we get what our eolic, solar and conventional thermal plants can´t produce from your nuclear plants.

 

I didn´t mean that France should stop it, and in fact, i advocate for nuclear to be the way until we (read eurpoe, the western world or the mankind) can get all our energy from renewable sources. However, any incident involving nuclear waste and people being killed is worth talking about.

It was a waste furnace that blew up and killed a guy. It had nothing to do with anything nuclear except that the place happened to be a nuclear reprocessing facility.
