my family knows some of the 'strange' death victims who advocated cost-effective alterative fuels.

3 blokes drowned. 1 in a bath. 1 in a bucket. 1 in the ocean (that one may have been accidental).

as for nukes. im pro-nuke as it is a 'safe' alternative.
accidents really happen with nuclear energy, its only when idiots do something stupid.

proplem is it requires large amount of water, which means that it has to be near river systems (and usually large populations). can they be run on super-saline water from the dessert?

and im pro nuke storage in wa.

make an indusrty from it. but then charge an stupid amount for storage. then the radiation issue is localised and foreign govts. WILL pay becasue they need to get rid of it.

as for an immediate fuel solution.

stop sending gas overseas. convert aus to gas over the next decade. then sit an watch rest of world sweat. then hop on whatever alternative fuel types become economically viable in the future.





ninja edit - one anti-nuke issue if the shelf life of nuke stations. and the cost of pulling them down. which im told is very expensive. this could make nuke power unviable in the long term.
