DOES THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT HAVE THE RIGHT TO REOPEN NUCLEAR PLANTS LOCATED IN SISMIC OR TSUNAMI RI (134)
GUZMAN1: I do not know the best alternative to unsafe nuclear plants, can be safe-nuclear plants or anything can move an electric generator, that's all.
But "alternative energies" is a diffused concept that allows the so called "ecologist movement" to stand in a comfortable politic position doing nothing.
When I talked about the Emperor of Japan I meant someone who can say: "this is better and cheaper than unsafe nuclear plants, build this and dismantle the rest".
Existant alternatives, not dreams.

at what Density will they become a navigational impediment?Conrad73: at what Density will they become a navigational impediment?
probably about 50% of the density of the commercial mussel beds in Bantry bay
I believe there was another plan some time ago to use savonious rotors anchored to the sea bed, I don't know what became of that, I can't remember what it was called.
The government in the uk has said that they are comitted to using diverse methods of renewable energy forms to reduce our carbon footprint and provide power for the masses, not everybody wants a windfarm near them and not all locations are suitable for them, the link I posted earlier is just one of the proven alternatives possible, I mentioned it because Japan is an Island and has the possibility for using the sea for much safer uses than pumping it around nuclear reactors and allowing it to escape into the atmosphere as a radioactive cloud and/or flowing back into the sea, contaminating that environment with radiation too, both instances of which have happened in the past at nuclear reactors in the uk.
Conrad73: Idée Fixe!
that's right, and it applies to you as much as me it seems we both seem to have definite and opposed opinions, that's ok by me, I'm not going to fret over it, as I said earlier we're both entitled to our opinions.

that's just the kind of thinking that created the "almost everlasting" pollution that the thread is about it seems that those who think they are cleverest have the least sense sometimes
never mind, you look quite old, you won't have to worry about it much longer, it'll be the next generations problem then
Perhaps you could post a similar picture showing the ranges of the US weapons already placed in close proximity to the U.S.S.R.
The secrecy period has expired. The information is now public. Everyone knows that BOTH sides withdrew their weapons.
The US just decided to spend the following few decades printing propaganda about it.

I might be around another twenty years,just to piss you off,and see the New Generation Reactors built,some of which are actually already operational in China!
The future of nuclear power is in micro reactors. Small truck size components that can be operated in a grid with each powerful enough to supply a small city for forty to sixty years with very little waste and with the reactor incapable of melting down. These will revolutionise the role of nuclear power and will have a massive effect on minimalising the carbon footprint. But of course the average greenie thinks a reactor and a nuclear warhead are the same thing so they would prefer a huffing great coal burner anyday.

I didn't mean to infer that you were incompetent due to your age, I was trying to make the point that whatever our generation does, it's the following generations that have to live with the results and it seems that the "cheap" alternative today is turning out to be very costly in terms of human life and health care.
I do know a little about reprocessing, we have a reprocessing plant in the u.k. that country's from all over the world bring their waste to and there have been slip ups there too.
It doesn't alter my opinion that this stuff is just too dangerous to have around, it was put earlier that nuclear facilities are the single most viable form of electrical generation on the planet but we don't have a single reactor that has been cost effective in the uk..... it seems all the country's now want plutonium for a nuclear deterent. It seems that all country's have to do their own tests, even the tests spread pollution
There is a big thing in news at the moment in the uk about the servicemen who witnessed the early military tests, of course most of them are dead now

SUNSHINEB0Y: http://www.pelamiswave.com/our-technology/the-pelamis
Yes, I heard something about these pelamis, but had other name. Doesn't matter, is not important if these devices are better or worse than windmills or other existant alternatives.
The most important is to decide passionless what are the better alternatives, in plural, because wrong decissions carry consequences. For example, I don't know what can another tsunami do with those pelamis.
And one day or other another tsunami will arrive to Japan, why you think now we use this japanese word, and not seaquake as traditionally?
Japan is in the Pacific Ocean, the most extense of the world, and surrounded by the Fire Belt, sismic or tsunami probabillities are absolutely more than in other countries.
SUNSHINEB0Y: All I can say is that Chicken little wasn't a part of the curriculum in my school not that I can remember half of what was, I do remember that the merchant of venice bored me rigid.
Probably wasn't taught in school, as it is stated,it's a common English idiom. You have a closed mind which indicates you don't allow much discussion in your life and is the reason why you never heard of it. On the other hand, you recognize FL so seems you were quite able to plunk yourself in front of the idiot box for hours at a time.

Well you will have to explain that one. CL is commonly referred to people who warn about dire consequences and don't have much reason to do so which you have done here on numerous posts as I documented above. Foghorn Leghorn is a cartoon character with various traits, none of which espouse a clear message of what it is that you have proven here on this thread.

when the pictures of the tsunami were on the tv I saw a fairly large ship on it's side on the land, I doubt the pelamis could do much more damage than that...and no radioactive cloud. It should be possible to make anchorages that are tsunamiproof.
Apparently the one that is running the island off scotland is the only one needed there but Portugal was the first country to have a "wave farm" of them.

I was trying to say you can not rely on one method because it is safer to have several in case something unexpected happens.
In other words, I`m afraid another tsunami could destroy pelamis and then no more electricity.
Also, coal power plants remain so, to have several ways of producing energy, to protect the coal industry and maintain the ability to supply it if necessary. It's not just the environment that should concern us.
And do not argue with who you know, his religion requires him to close his mind, he believes.

I agree entirely and I'm sure that the Japanese can exploit a number of renewable sources to fit their needs, in a way it's easier for rural locations to get satisfaction from small output devices but even in the cities things should be getting easier, even light bulbs are consuming less and becoming more efficient.

I’ve thought for the past decade or so that a power alternative may come from our space programs like NASA or Russia. Satellite Solar energy transmitted and received to Earth in some way.
As we speak right now, a plan has been drawn to install large windmills off the shores of Lake Erie where there is always a wind. When completed, the windmills would provide energy to both the US and parts of Canada. The problem is financing.
This is a must, must, must see video.

That's very interesting JA, although I'm not 100% sure about the microwave thing, in fact we don't really have any real data on the effects of mobile phones although most peeps seem to have them and a lot of peeps report headaches when they use them but it is defo progress
years ago there was an invention called the thermo ovonic generator and basically it worked on the principle of twisting two disimilar wires together to get a voltage accross the other ends, this is then increased by heating the twisted ends. This fact was exploited further by using semi conductors to make a solid state piece that could be placed over any heat source to produce leccy, I'm wondering if there is, or if not, why there isn't someone looking into using the worlds core heat and volcanos, hot springs etc to provide some of our needs like that too. It is a well known fact that the very tarmac on our streets collects solar heat, we could possibly be using the streets for making energy, right where we need it most, in the city's of the world.
It is also known that a very short distance under the surface of the earth the temperature is always 7 or 8 degrees higher than on the surface, we in Ireland are increasingly using that to heat our houses, surely we could be using the acreage of roads we have for the production of energy worldwide somehow
as you so correctly state financing is the key and some peeps think that the bulk of the research is being left to the companies that are making the money out of oil at the moment, I don't know but if it is then this brings a conflict of interest untill the oil is about to run out.I think this is one area where the capitalist system doesn't work well and it should not be left to individuals to compete, I don't mean we should stop them but there should be a world research fund to sort out something that suits everyone, idealy.

This is exclusively my idea about heating homes without the use of power. This was part of my Master's Thesis and It's all true. I passed because I actually built the Prototype:
If you go outside on a nice sunny day, and you have your car sitting along a tree nearby. (Heat transfer)
Go touch your car; it is most likely made of metal. It is hot because metal is a conductor. Go touch the tree made of wood.
Wood is not a conductor. It is cool to the touch.
Plastic and porcelain are also not conductors...That's why Electricity Companies use them; to protect us from shock.
The Sun provides heat to the Earth by convection. Warm air like the Sun always flows to cool air or objects like our Earth.
This is my idea:
Depending on whether you live in the Southern Hemisphere or Northern, one wall will face the Sun and the opposite will not. Since heat flows from warm to cool, make the hot wall as the conductor and the cold wall as the receiver.
This can be done if the right materials are used in each wall.
This would be a brand new heating and cooling system for the World, electricity free.
This new unit would be close-by or attached to the house on the warm side where it can catch the rays of the Sun.
It would be enclosed in a glass or Plexiglas case to receive maximum protection from our environment and oxygen contaminants.
Fans...run on the flow of air. The blades of the fan can be engineered to turn without power and return the airflow to the cold wall. This would heat the house as the air flows.
Electronic devises are also available that require no power to check the system.
My first prototype worked when I built it in 2003. Since I used leaves and animal droppings as a fuel, I discovered a new theory.
What I did was take 55 gallon steel barrels filled with water and placed them positioned toward the Sun. I only filled them 2/3 of the way because of the expansion of water pressure and included pressure relief valves.
It worked. The water drums ran at about 180 degrees. I even grew plants on very cold winter days.
Conclusion:
...the big oil companies shot down my idea because it would harm their profits. I took the idea to the Ukraine (Russia} and they considered to look at my prototype. After a couple of years, they decided that such a small device would not work in very cold Russian winters.
This story from the US made me wisely think it over again:
A man in the early 70's invented a device called a diode and when connected to an automobile frame would keep a metal car from rusting. It would eliminate one of the 3 causes of rust: Static Electricity.
The large Corporate Automobile Companies caught wind of that, and with their power, purchased the Patent. The man disappeared shortly after. Body never found.
