    Doomberg assumes the good faith of the politicians, an assumption that emerges from all his analyses. The reality is that the politicians do not want to maintain the standard of living of the citizens, and their goal is not more energy with less pollution, their goal is only less energy!!! So a reduced standard of living!!! The low standard of living makes people dependent. Dependent people are easy to control. That's the goal, not the pollution, the climate, etc.

    Nuclear power is too costly but with the generous help of the taxpayer it is used to deliver untold profits to shareholders. Those advocating nuclear power should move to Fukushima where the price of real estate is rock bottom and the sea is warm all year. Just watch out for the fish with two heads that glow in the dark.

    The two US political parties SAY they both are in favor of nuclear. Yet they seem to be dragging their as____ on this issue and I don't know why; other than they seem rather two-faced about their agenda. A seasoned well known investor and speculator said something to the effect of" if nuclear doesn't go on line soon ; the lights won't either". Well ; that was said about five months ago and there're currently rolling blackouts in the state of California.

    I'm very pro nuclear power and always have been, but could SMRs increase risk due to the fact that there must be many SMRs vs few large nuclear reactors? Nuclear reactors are an inherent security risk because of terrorism, etc. Just a thought.

      Japan is restarting all of its reactors that aren't too old and are planning more brand new ones. How many millions of people were killed at Fukushima? Oh, I remember now, there were zero deaths. Like I just said NONSENSE, unless you live in Moscow.

    The ENTIRE net zero aspiration and direction is based upon the fallacies that carbon dioxide is a) a pollutant, when it is in fact an essential gas - reducing it by 60% of todays levels would kill off plant life and all things which depend on it, b) they conveniently neglect to acknowledge that all carbon dioxide present constitutes a mere 0.04% of the planet’s atmosphere , and moreover that the man-made component is around 0.004%, ie four one-thousandths of one per cent; to imagine that this can drive ‘global warming’ is delusional, as well as wrong, temperature drives co2 levels, and not the other way around, and c) ice core samples demonstrate clearly that the planet’s average temperature (another topic that makes no sense) has been higher many times before throughout history, ie BEFORE the ‘dmaging’ industrial era, and that global temperatures vary as part of a result of entirely natural cycles. People are being led up the garden path by fool politicians with a combination of misunderstood concepts and often malice to drive an industry which both impoverishes and enslaves them - entirely without justification. What are these chumps going to say when the much dreaded and widely predicted global warming turns out to be global cooling?

      Doomberg's rationale for anonimity is to force people to address the issues they discuss and not simply attack the person(s) - which is quite smart in the antisocial media world. For funding - look at their substack stats and you'll see its funded by subscriptions - this was discussed in a post called "the work of our lives" as they moved to a subscription service.
