The point is that the nuclear industry (and industry in general) is in the nasty habit of lying about every dangerous substance they use or produce: Benzenes, Beryllium, popcorn flavoring, radioactive material, coal, asbestos, cigarettes, dyes, etc etc etc. The list is quite long, and they are still fighting many of these to the bitter end. Do you really expect them to ever tell the truth unless forced? The nuclear industry has a quite terrible record. Hundreds of thousands of people have been exposed to radioactive materials and hazardous substances in the production of nuclear bombs, and not just government owned facilities. Many of the facilities were contract. We should not go down this road again. Conservation would save a lot more energy, and here are a few examples: 1) Legislate away all consumables such as styrofoam cups, paper plates, trash bags, etc. Make telecommuting mandatory wherever possible. 3) Force all vehicles over 2.5 tons to use low sulfur diesel, NG, or other greener technology.
There are no companies left to recycle the waste. They were burned during the Carter administration and lost $billions. It's not an industry you just fire up over night. Besides, after the US nuclear weapons program, how will you find workers for a nuclear waste recycling program? US workers were lied to for years about the dangers of nuclear waste and peripheral exposure and finally minimally compensated, if at all. Nuclear power believers live in a fantasy land. The best way to approach the energy problem is through conservation. Modern society is awash with waste, such as senseless architectural design, blatantly wasteful consumables, and gross over-eating.
Here's a neat experiment. Use the algorithm to compare the Works of Shakespeare to the Shakespeare of Avon's writings, such as his will, his tombstone epitaph, etc. You'll find they weren't written by the same person.
The issue is calorie-dense vs. calorie-sparse, nutrient-rich foods. Consuming large amounts of calorie-dense food is what should be avoided. Butter, oils, sugar, and red meat are the primary culprits. Our society is far over-fed these types of foods. What we should be eating more of is calorie-sparse nutrient-rich foods such as squash, yam, spinach, broccoli, eggs, blueberries, brown rice, plums, peaches, apples, oranges, onions, garlic, etc etc. Of course, the body needs protein such as ham, shrimp, chicken, turkey, fish, small amounts of red meat and pork. NO ONE should EVER eat pizza or donuts or chips or cookies or anything like it. Cheese is one of least healthy foods -- extremely calorie-dense, mostly saturated fat. I started on this type of diet about 3 months ago, and with moderate cardio exercise, have lost 26 pounds such that my weight is 10% below my "ideal recommended" weight which I think is overstated by the medical community.
