No he's not...seriously what can you take out of "a number of self-professed Christians do or say this or that..." to someone c'mon.
If you want to debate that article take it to CE or at least start its own thread.
It basically never had any integrity. It goes back to their coverage of WW II and Nazi Germany. NYT bureau chief in Berlin, Guido Enderis, was a Nazi collaborator- went all in on the Nazis’ claim that Poland invaded Germany to spark the war in Europe in 1939.
The NYT continues to force false narratives under the heading all the news that is fit to print. It's worse than lying. See the Duke Lacrosse story and multiple others.
Another good example. Their "reporting" during the pandemic was particularly awful and biased.
Which makes it "a cause" but not necessarily 'the cause"
OK it could be interpreted that way. But we only seem to hear about the human-activity boogeyman from these climatologists, where's the balance?
Please provide your home address so we know where to in the nuclear waste disposal. Dont worry the half life is about 24,000 years
Even after the charges were dropped and Nifong indicted Selena Roberts wrote a NYT column saying even though they were innocent they deserved the **** they got.
I can't understand how any rational person could defend that POS, narrative-driven rag. The funny thing is many elites seem to think it some sort of bastion of excellent news reporting.
As far as the topic of this thread, I think I agree with much of what @RU4Real said (if I understand what he said correctly) is that we should do a little it of everything wrt to clean energy sources. Perhaps a minor area of disagreement, and it is minor is the phase out of petroleum products. Setting hard deadlines for phase out may not age well. As far as the rest of the world, China seems to be doing very little, as do other major countries on climate change and pollution. That's a problem.
Sites hold most of the waste, the rest goes to Yucca Mountain, as already planned by the gov'ment. Pretty simple.
The NYT has been a liberal rag for decades. The big change is that stopped pretending they were something else 10 or so years ago.
Plenty of land, new reactors don't require large footprints. Double the # of reactors and replace the old ones to boost efficiency. May even 4x output. Pretty simple.
As opposed to the Post and the Daily News which are straight shooters i guess ?
You said you wondered what others thought. I haven’t seen a single person provide any data or point of view from a respectable scientific body that refutes the widely held climate change position.. All I see are dispersions cast that undermine the issue.
And you have no idea how bad the planet can get. Maybe not in my or your lifetime but certainly in my child’s.
Biden has rightfully shut down Alabama investment until tub head relents on his crusade against the US Military
No, I said I wondered how many in the field disagreeing with the current hysteria narrative can get published. Not sure you really can tell us how bad the planet can get, in my or my kids' lifetimes.
The answer is no. They are not, especially India who is building new coal plants as quickly as possible. Anything the US does in the positive direction will be quickly cancelled by these two growing nations.
Yeah probably more like 50 years. What’s your point on saying anything we do will be canceled? To say it’s futile and we shouldn’t bother?
Nuclear power accounts for 20% of US electricity. Maxing out existing sites with new tech would likely increase this to 60-75% coverage. With the foresight and will, this can be accomplished within a decade. Shut down our existing coal plants as these new reactors come online. Win-win for everyone!
Trying to be realistic. I support energy modernization for many reasons beyond CO2/climate change (for transparency, my priority is for the US is become 100% energy independent). However, for those that are solely focused on CO2, until we get China and India rowing in the same direction, it really is futile. Global output will not go down.
Yucca mountain??? nevada wants nothing to do with the waste and it will never be approved there. Also the minor problem of moving Nuclear waste by truck 3000 miles. The sitting on site in concrete casks are not exactly welcome or safe either.

If actually plausible, I’m all for it. But of course it’s probably completely unrealistic and you have zero knowledge as to whether it is plausible.
I'm sure you've spent much of your life caring about the plight of wildlife, the northern spotted owl, for example.
Why is this always the response?
I don’t think many, if any, of us live in area where zoning would permit a powerhouse, refinery, reactor, etc. in our backyard.
Unfortunately NIMBYism is out of control, to the point where people complain about windmills miles out to sea and killed the use of Yucca Mountain, a remote place in one of the most sparsely populated parts of the country, as a nuclear waste storage site. Nuclear doesn't really bother me but unless someone can figure out a way to get more people to support it or make NIMBYism almost impossible it's not a viable option for massive expansion.
Haha.. Murdoch rag publications. Ultra right fake news with a slanted propaganda. Sensational reporting for the uneducated.
