Exploring tech in and around Small Modular Reactors, and Molten Salt Reactors
@dan613 @Emil @collectifission Only in Western Capitalist countries is this the case. One of the reasons why countries are joining BRICS, and even considering leaving NATO, is because of the absurd roadblocks put in place to further guarantee fossil fuels profits.
@Emil Since it’s absurdly expensive to get US licensing, these offerings are for seed money, fully expecting to fail full financing. But hey, as long as the principals get paid for the ipo.
@ajsadauskas @australianpolitics My post explicitly scaled less-to-more developed, industrialized nations. You isolate value spaces because you can’t, or won’t, do the “developed” math.
Reap what you sow. Your ilk are why fossil fuels so easily maintains a 90% market share, and future generations are in genocidal jeopardy.
@ajsadauskas @australianpolitics Given the accelerating collapse of ecosystems globally, developing nations barely have a shot at evolving the energy sector, let alone industrialized nations that easily keep renewables and nuclear at a 10% market share.
Whether you do a deep-dive into #6thMassExtinction or not, we’re in one.
@spiritedpause @worldnews It’s sleight-of-hand. Fossil fuels - the wealthiest industry in human history - has successfully kept nuclear and renewables at a 10% market share since the first electric car over a hundred years ago. Sacrificing future generations so fossil fuels billionaires get another yacht, is the fashionable abuse-of-power, nowadays.
@Emil Korea is far less susceptible to fossil fuels disruptive tactics - especially in regulation, finance and construction extortion. Good news.
@dan613 @Emil @collectifission More Authoritarian regimes have concentrated power, weighted at the top, instead of heavily diluted secondary/tertiary positions of power, that Western Capitalism has. This keeps the wealthiest, and most powerful industry in human history - fossil fuels - easily in control of the root infrastructure power that they are. So terms like ‘streamlined’ processes are easily invoked when measuring BRICS against ‘pure’ Capitalism, thereby correctly assuming more direct paths to broad distribution.
If you ever get a chance to rub elbows with DC lobbyists; you’ll start to rewrite your biases, at root. It’s inevitable, just like the US becoming the largest oil producer in the world, just this past year.
