Short hiatus (gone south…)by Barry Brook |
Well,
it's come at last -- I'm currently in the throes of my move (southwards
retreat!) to Tasmania. Such is the upheaval involved in a large
inter-state move (from the mainland to an island, no less!) that I will
be unlikely to be in a position to post any new material on the BNC blog
for a few weeks. But be assured, once I'm settled in my new
deep-austral abode, I should once again be able to give due attention to
this domain!
In the meantime, a few interesting things to read, in case you've not already caught these:
- Think we'll ever run out of nuclear fuel? Think again... http://www.
journalogy.net/Publication/ 50514377/nuclear-fission-fuel- is-inexhaustible -
Prescription for the Planet book is now FREE (the whole book as one PDF): http://www.
thesciencecouncil.com/pdfs/ P4TP4U.pdf -
"Technical rationale for metal fuel in fast reactors" -- read this to better understand why the IFR offers such outstanding benefits for sustainable energy. Despite the title, it's actually quite readable (!), and lots of useful diagrams: http://www.kns.org/
jknsfile/v39/JK0390161.pdf? PHPSESSID= 2d3b18b9d415e3c564b40853e16fe3 d7 -
The Australian Academy of Technology Sciences & Engineering has released an action statement on nuclear power. There is also a WNN editorial that discusses it in some detail.
See you when I get to the other side of 'The Ditch'!
