Preppers, Doomtards & co., can't u see this?!

Small oversite :D

super powers

I have KI

If I move North I win.

Just have to manage not to freeze to death

blankets lots of blankets and some quality alcohol

Got that more than covered!

Stopped Drinking in 2008, Kept buying Alcohol anyway.....you should see this stockpile.

game over man. the whole thing is gonna melt down.....

i think the government would take what was left of the fuel and use it to keep the reactors cool but they would tell the citizens there is no fuel.

You are totally correct...Fukushima just proved what WILL happen...

This is the most worrisome SHTF issue for me too.

We saw how the authorities dealt with Chernobyl and Fukushima ("I know! Let's pour water on the failed reactors from helicopters and then sweep it all under the rug" they said).

Would be a chain reaction in a SHTF scenario. The earth would never recover.

Step one: get more people talking and thinking about, and taking action against, these issues. Thanks for posting.

This IS issue #1 for sure. We basically already guaranteed that non-continuity of some form means non-continuity PERIOD.

US NUCLEAR REACTORS

I though I would get more of a response to this... guess I was wrong.

dooom 98 % of the walking sheep die
98 % of the survivors get radiation diseases and die off

survivors of the radiation win survival of the fittest olympics )

Like Jenner Said in Breaking Bad.

"The Wold runs on Fossil fuel, How stupid is that ?"

The world runs on
1) Petrol,
2) Nuclear,
3) Coal,
4) Natural Gas (now brought o you via Fracking/Raping the Earth),

how fucked up is that when we can run on

1) Bio-diesel (via inexpensive and highly efficient plankton farms using CO2 emissions from factories anywhere in the world)
2) Thorium (inexpensive, abundant and does not melt down and is extremely minimally radioactive in a worst case scenario)
3) Solar (German Sola Power plants equal 20 nuclear plants at full capacity)
4) Wind or Tidal or Geo-Thermo or Tesla Tech or Magnetic Motors or Hydrolysis motors etc etc etc...

it doesn't matter which, the point is WE DO NOT HAVE TO but we do because we believe we do and allow ourselves to serve the economic interests in the world and not Humanity & Earth's interests.

SO now, we have ALREADY cornered ourselves going back to the original point in the thread, so it is too late in a SHTF scenario.

By the way, just so you know they knew of Thorium as a fuel for nuclear power plants since the beginning but ELECTED to go uranium then plutonium BECAUSE those would give off material for nuclear BOMBS. Wrap your head around THAT.

???
Everyone isn't dead in Japan?

This is why new nuclear plants should be built to replace the old ones. The new designs don't have this problem. Sadly, the government won't give the permits necessary for this to happen.

I've seen this in disaster scenarios before. One of the reasons why I'm glad I live in Oregon. Other then mini nuclear plant at Oregon state University, which is of the newer designs and used for research, there aren't any plants around me.

Excellent point made! When the workers that run those plants dont show up, its doom on! BIW look and see what state is clear from local radiation hazards. Also its where the GOV criminals r moving to!

This is for the Germany solartards.

The costs of subsidizing solar electricity have exceeded the 100-billion-euro mark in Germany, but poor results are jeopardizing the country's transition to renewable energy. The government is struggling to come up with a new concept to promote the inefficient technology in the future.
Info

The Baedeker travel guide is now available in an environmentally-friendly version. The 200-page book, entitled "Germany - Discover Renewable Energy," lists the sights of the solar age: the solar café in Kirchzarten, the solar golf course in Bad Saulgau, the light tower in Solingen and the "Alster Sun" in Hamburg, possibly the largest solar boat in the world.

ANZEIGE
The only thing that's missing at the moment is sunshine. For weeks now, the 1.1 million solar power systems in Germany have generated almost no electricity. The days are short, the weather is bad and the sky is overcast.

As is so often the case in winter, all solar panels more or less stopped generating electricity at the same time. To avert power shortages, Germany currently has to import large amounts of electricity generated at nuclear power plants in France and the Czech Republic. To offset the temporary loss of solar power, grid operator Tennet resorted to an emergency backup plan, powering up an old oil-fired plant in the Austrian city of Graz.

Solar energy has gone from being the great white hope, to an impediment, to a reliable energy supply. Solar farm operators and homeowners with solar panels on their roofs collected more than €8 billion ($10.2 billion) in subsidies in 2011, but the electricity they generated made up only about 3 percent of the total power supply, and that at unpredictable times.

The distribution networks are not designed to allow tens of thousands of solar panel owners to switch at will between drawing electricity from the grid and feeding power into it. Because there are almost no storage options, the excess energy has to be destroyed at substantial cost. German consumers already complain about having to pay the second-highest electricity prices in Europe.
