In this episode of Eye on the Issues, we explore the complexities of nuclear energy and nuclear waste storage with M.V. Ramana, Professor at the University of British Columbia and author of Nuclear is Not the Solution: The Folly of Atomic Power in the Age of Climate Change. Professor Ramana shares his insights on the risks and benefits of nuclear e...



 

 



Wyoming stands at a crossroads. As nuclear energy proposals accelerate across the state—from advanced reactor development to renewed conversations about storing spent fuel—Wyomingites are once again being asked to weigh in on an issue that carries both promise and profound risk. These debates aren't new. For decades, policymakers, industry leaders,...

by Wyoming Liberty Group TerraPower, the nuclear company founded by Bill Gates, recently announced that it had awarded a contract to a firm to design, test and do other stuff for something called a "sodium-air heat exchanger" and "air stack structures and equipment for the Natrium Reactor Demonstration Project currently under construction in Kemmer...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Recently, the state legislature's Minerals, Business and Economic Development Committee passed draft legislation that would open the door in Wyoming to the temporary storage of nuclear fuel waste. Temporary, by the way, is a relative term. More on this in a moment. But what this means, in the short term, is this: We all nee...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Let's give a shout out to our very own Harriet Hageman, Wyoming's sole representative in Congress. Rep. Hageman recently called out the Bureau of Land Management—otherwise known as BLM—and its misguided Western Solar Plan, which would vastly expand the amount of public land that could be used for big industrial solar projec...

by Wyoming Liberty Group How's this for twisted logic: People are going to do dangerous things that can harm themselves, so go ahead and let them do it and other people will be there just in case something goes wrong. That's the insane logic among many of those trying to legalize drugs throughout the country. That, by the way, includes pro-pot forc...

by Wyoming Liberty Group We may not fully realize it, but it appears that Wyoming is fast becoming a key staging ground in the race involving the United States against rivals Russia and China for domination in nuclear power--not just for weapons but also for civilian use. This nuclear industry race may explain why so many vested interests are pushi...

by Wyoming Liberty Group There's hype. And then there's jargon. Combine the two, and you have quite the mess. That's certainly the case with the latest push to expand renewable energy in Wyoming. In its latest incarnation, our own Senator John Barrasso, along with Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia, sponsored a bill recently that ostensibly inten...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Not to state the obvious, but there's a big difference between $26 million and $4 billion. Like three billion nine hundred seventy-four million, if the math is correct. That's a lot of kibbles—and zeroes. But that's the gulf between the promise of annual revenue and the facts as we know them when it comes to a proposal to s...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Bill Gates professes to know what's best for our state. Yes, that guy. The cofounder of tech giant Microsoft. By the way, being a billionaire doesn't necessarily make one wise. But in Gates' case, it does give him some serious currency in the cowboy state, where his company, TerraPower, is building a nuclear plant. Gates la...
