Toxic Water Detected In Newly Built Well At Fukushima Nuclear Plant

[Generic Other]

66. I have been cutting energy use my whole life

Close the plant. I have been in it. The concrete walls have waterstains running down them like a damn cheap motel flop. The geiger counter clicked the whole time I toured that so-called "modern" facility. They put yellow police tape across the floor to mark where it was not safe to cross. Are you kidding me?

I witnessed for myself what the inside of that facility looked like. I have no problem with phasing out all the plants NOW. I do not think I am the only one who feels this way. Not in our state. Or in the rest of the country.

Your Snoqualimie Falls is a great example of local areas taking advantage of the sustainables that exist. Your electric plant must have generated a huge supply in a few days last winter. I recall seeing some shots of the falls that made it look like it had doubled in size and strength. What a beautiful place and good for your community that you can generate power without destroying either your health or harming the environment.

Imagine what the PNW could do with some underwater generators at Deception Pass, the Narrows, the Straits using tidal energy. The state considered a Dutch company doing just such a thing when they built the second Narrow's Bridge. They really should have done it IMO. All of the South Sound goes in and out of the Narrows twice a day. That's a lot of free energy just like your falls. Just have to think outside the old reactor silo sometimes. And we could be selling surplus power rather than still paying for crap we ultimately decided we could do without.
