Re: “Releasing radioactive water into the ocean should scare us” [Sept. 1, Opinion]:

I’m typically in settlement with columnist LZ Granderson, however he must steer clear of a topic he is aware of little or no about.

He conflates the dangers of what has been fastidiously labored out and strikes on to the entire space of nuclear vitality. The planet is on fireplace and we want emission-free vitality. I salute Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resolution to change away from fuel and oil.

The expertise exists to make use of nuclear waste as gasoline, and to show waste right into a glasslike substance much like obsidian that may then be saved deep within the earth. There has not been one fatality from radiation publicity at a reactor on this nation ever.
