Expect A Clean Energy Boom In Uranium, Rare Earth Miners

A recently released documentary, “Pandora’s Promise” explores the transformation of staunch anti nuke environmentalists into believers of the benefits of nuclear power. This is a must watch film as these activists believe that nuclear energy could really transform the world.

Governments around the world including most recently President Obama have been discussing strategies to address the climate crisis. Nuclear is the only source that can provide additional supply of base load power without hurting the atmosphere.

These environmentalists are seeing a major gap between fossil fuels and renewables like wind and solar. Renewables are unable to make up the gap alone. Coal, natural gas and oil demand is still growing.

Being anti-nuke is a dangerous policy in light of the rising demand for fossil fuels. Do not be surprised to see more mainstream environmental organizations support the development of next generation nuclear technologies that are safer, more efficient and cleaner.

The documentary debunks a lot of the nuclear myths that came out after Fukushima which caused a mass hysteria and knee jerk reaction by both the German and Japanese Government. Now two and a half years later Japan is turning reactors back on and Germany may soon make a pivot towards nuclear as electricity costs have skyrocketed.
