There were a number of negative aspects of large metal type. It was expensive, required a large amount of storage space and was extremely heavy. If a printer did have a collection of large metal type, it was li
One of the major problems of nuclear energy is the inability of scientists to discover a safe way to dispose of the radioactive wastes which occur throughout the nuclear process. Many of these wastes remain dangerously active for tens of thousands of years, while others have a life span close...
So, should we use nuclear energy? The risks may outweigh the benefits and maybe we should stop looking into this direction and drop this technology for good.
Some countries use nuclear energy to produce power. However, nuclear power can be very dangerous. To solve the energy problem, people all over the world are looking for new ways to produce power. China is one of the first countries in the worl...
china proposes to build a community of shared future on nuclear security. it firmly safeguards the international nuclear nonproliferation regime, promotes the peaceful use of nuclear energy, and upholds a rational, coordinated and balanced appro...
Boemeke also notes that nuclear energy waste is “fully contained in concrete casks that are so good at blocking radiation that I [sic] might do a photo shoot there.” Additionally, nuclear energy facilities can be built near enough to population centers that they may avoid some of the probl...
Does nuclear energy have a future, in light of the events at Fukushima? Fukushima Daiichi is the six-unit nuclear-power station on the northeast coast of Japan that was hit by a powerful tsunami, preceded by one of the strongest earthquakes on record. The extent of the damage is ...
Eh? Nuclear power is demand-based power. Solar and wind are not. Until or unless we make a few quantum leaps forward in energy-storage technology, wind and solar will *never* fill a majority of the world's power needs. The hardest problem a utility faces isn't generating the energy ....
A holistic energy grid is very smart, really surprised government still hasn't done something like this, if a company like Google can. Click to expand... Here is what I don't understand. We've been putting nuclear reactors in subs for many years. Why reinvent the wheel when we might...
Reuse is the most energy-efficient version of circularity. Collecting, cleaning, and refilling glass bottles was once common and widespread, and it remains a small but significant part of the economy in many countries. It’s also the norm in many places to buy foods in bulk and transport ...
