    “If Japan and Germany had reduced coal instead of nuclear after Fukushima, they could have together prevented about 28,000 air pollution-induced premature deaths”
    As Steve Milloy would say ” …show me the bodies”. These premature death scenarios are crafted by people with SHIT-4-BRAINS. Classic example is the USEPA’s feeble attempts as described in Milloy’s Scare Pollution all while violating Nuremburg Protocols on Human Experimentation.

      My understanding is that SHIT-4-BRAINS is a Scientific Law, not merely a strongly correlated hypothesis.

      Exactly Carbon Bigfoot!
      Well said but the Shit-4-Brains fools are still the control freaks that wish to severely limit industrialization and ensure worse outcomes for the majority of people on the planet.

    As usual, the article Immediately turns any viewer off by using a header shot of superheated steam cooling towers – which have bugger all to do with nuclear power but could be at any turbine generating facility, thermal (coal; oil) or whatever……..
