This video doesn't get posted enough--I heard about it months ago but only just now watched it.

They're cutting down all the trees to burn as fuel.

    Again, Japan checking in. Currently dumping cesium into the ocean. So. No.

    The answer is to dismantle capitalism and move to state economies

                I assume you are a comrade so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here. I've walked around the city with a Geiger counter in fear that my kids are getting poised. I saw the government lift the allowable cesium % 100 fold to accommodate the new unfortunate reality.

                You haven't.

                You can't understand the effects of something you haven't experienced first hand. It's liberal techno fetishist /r/futurology people who are all in on nuclear but don't want to address consumption and capitalism with its infinite growth within a finite resource system. Nuclear is tremendously carbon intensive as well homie. Tremendously. So why not attack the problem at its root: its the capitalism

        No. Reduce consumption by addressing the source causes : planned obsolescence, artificial shortage, and an economical system that serves only the 1%. Gotta keep your eye on the ball cause they gonna shift it

          ok... so we arent gonna talk about how there is no process to recycle solar panels and wind turbines but there is a decades long, working process to recycle nuclear fuel which isnt done? can we also talk about how we still need petroleum for the manufacture of solar panels and wind turbines?

          for real, the first act of any socialist government should be to reeducate people into accepting nuclear energy, as we're in an existential crisis that simply wont be solved without incredible, yet unseen in history, mass exploitation of the third world if we use renewables. if we use nuclear, shit will be just peachy
