We've got a Business Plot to overthrow the progressive president seeing us out of years of austerity, a burgeoning automaker selling anti-semitic propaganda, and a war in Europe. What fucking decade is this again?
Again it should be more of a news story that Nazis thrive on this site with the not-even-tacit endorsement of America’s most famous industrialist

Germane to the arguments of the article. There is not in fact any increased leukemia risk from living near nuclear power plants. Should probably print a retraction given the misinformation contained in the article.

440 reactors provide 10% of the world's electricity. China can build a reactor for $2.5B per, so $2T in funding could potentially build 800 reactors. Then nuclear would supply 28% of world's electricity. That'd be an 18% increase. Instead we get 3% from wind and solar.
Nearly $2 trillion was spent from 2011 to 2018 on wind and solar energy across the globe. And in the end, they covered 3% of the world’s energy needs.

When people say nuclear is too slow to build and too expensive so we should just rely on solar farms in the desert.
This must change. 17 years to build a long-distance electricity transmission line is FAR FAR too long.

You can drop a nuclear plant right on top of that former coal site and use the existing transmission infrastructure. That's what IBEW suggests we do.

How to treat climate change as an existential crisis👇

To add to Senator Sanders' points here, we should be freely sharing climate technologies with each other and the rest of the world. Governments can pay for the research and then put it in the public domain for all to use.

"GOP donors collude with supreme court justice at secret society meetings" has all the trappings of a good conspiracy theory because it was a conspiracy theory before someone did the research and found out it is a conspiracy fact.
Aside from appearing at Koch network events as a draw to donors, Clarence Thomas has also interacted more personally with the Koch brothers for more than two decades at the Bohemian Grove, a secretive all-men’s retreat in Northern California.

I've been interested in life extension since I was very young and there's nothing more I want than for scientists to find a way to extend healthy lifespan. That's why it's really important to be skeptical about these things, because the first person you'll fool is yourself.
hype hurts
one only needs to look at the serial commercialization failures of poorly vetted ideas to see the value of skepticism

It's finally the real thing. Will inevitably replace millions of white collar workers. Sound the alarm folks. It's time to restructure the economy around human needs.
But, let's imagine this is finally the real thing. I am far from an expert on this stuff, but it seems that it already has the ability to replace millions of people in call centers, customer service, accounting and billing.
