NUCLEAR ENERGY MYTHS/FACTS VIDEO ...
Everything Nuclear

This 42-minute video reviews some of the lesser-known historical foibles of nuclear power generation and addresses some of the standard nuclear-energy myths vs. facts—like the supposed wonders of French nuclear waste reprocessing; that US reactors are designed to withstand a jumbo-jet crash; that wreck-proof shipping containers are used to transport nuclear waste; or that nuclear provides emissions-free energy. All false or highly exaggerated.

The guest list includes engineers, legal experts, and former chairmen of the Nuclear Regulator Commission and the Tennessee Valley Authority. Watch below via the embedded video playlist; or right-click to download an MP3 of the audio portion. The film was released in 2008 but remains accurate and relevant.

THE REAL THIRD RAIL OF CLIMATE CHANGE
The two stereotypical sides of the climate debate are (a) climate change is a potential planet-killer and MUST be addressed; and (b) climate change is nothing to worry about, it's all part of a natural cycle. Guy McPherson reviews the scientific evidence that there is a third scenario: Climate change has already entered a runaway-feedback mode and there is now nothing humans can do to reverse the catastrophic level of warming that's coming—and coming soon. The good news? McPherson delivers his dark news clearly, with a great sense of humor, and with excellent insights into the human condition.  Watch climate feedback loop video(1:51:49)
