minus-squareGeodad@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 天前Yeah, that’s really fearmongery. Most of the water that leaks out will be cooling water, which means deuterium mixed with normal water. There may be small amounts of tritium in it, but that’s not too worrying either.
minus-squaresolo@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 天前And what would be the gain for the UK Parliament to use fearmongering tactics for something like that?
minus-squareGeodad@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 天前Probably the same thing that has American congress doing it. Ties to fossil fuel companies.
minus-squaresolo@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 天前I doubt it’s what you say. All countries have ties to fossil fuel. There is even a shared history of oil and nuclear energy Apart from that, currently Britain prepares to go all-in on nuclear power — after years of dither and Keir Starmer expected to confirm result of 15-year search for investment at UK-France summit next month. For me, this would be a reason not to spread fearmongering on this matter. So, any other reason you can think of to back your argument?
