    a continuation of the plutonium and thorium economy on a scale that has not yet taken place. Huge quantities of highly toxic materials such as plutonium and uranium isotopes would be transported halfway around the world like coal or petroleum. "This should be avoided at all costs" (24). Norway no longer wants thorium reactors Norway has the third richest thorium deposits in the world...

    ESKOM's credit rating was downgraded on a certain scale in August 2008 (3). ESKOM's budget earmarked $2017 billion for the construction of new coal and nuclear power plants by 34. In the longer term, 20 GW of nuclear power capacity was planned by 2025. However, there is currently only enough money for 7 GW of nuclear power capacity. "Finally, in November 2008...

    "Meyer at McDonalds, Meyer at the gas station, Meyer baking potato pancakes in the pedestrian zone, Meyer at the Oktoberfest, Meyer underground and Meyer laying the foundation stone of the RWE coal-fired power plant." (11/10/2008). Meyer satire has obviously reached the mainstream and it is beginning to surprise in a positive way. All that's left for me now is to look forward to a new, productive...

    Nuclear research is becoming a waste of time as a result of the “nuclear phase-out” decided by the federal government. Dates: August 29, 2008: Chancellor Angela Merkel comes to Hamm-Uentrop to lay the foundation stone for the new RWE coal-fired power plants and is enthusiastically celebrated and pressed hard by a large crowd because these large-scale plants will provide alternative energies for the next 40 years in this region...

    Industrial chemical products (Sasol) were aimed primarily at the needs of the mining industry and based their production on mining raw materials, mainly coal.

    not only mothballed for ideological reasons, but also unceremoniously demolished. Our current Federal President played a key role in this. It must be noted that our local coal is far too good to burn. However, it can be refined in an environmentally friendly way using HTR technology. (...) Our neighbors support us in this Schildbürger prank. You know, why....

  16. The incident at the THTR in May 1986 in 'Spiegel'

    The Social Democrats in power in North Rhine-Westphalia had opted for this type of reactor. The preference was based on the hope that the Hammer nuclear factory could one day supply process heat for coal gasification - an essential for the coal and industrial state of North Rhine-Westphalia. Leading Social Democrats also remember that the former head of the mining industrial union, Adolf...

    Nothing is really certain. If South Africa builds and exports high-temperature reactors, another problem and potential risk will arise. Energy. 94 percent of the energy comes from hard coal, only 1,5 percent from sun and wind. By 2013, only five percent will be generated from alternative energy, even though there is enough sun and wind in South Africa. The government is...

    When building the railway line from Qingdao to the provincial capital Jinan, & Co secured the right to exploit coal mines along a 15 kilometer wide corridor to the right and left of the railway line. The result of countless treaties concluded under coercion and pressure was the semi-colonial enslavement of large additional areas of China. The murder of two German missionaries and the...

    obvious contradiction. This connection is visualized in the graphic from the FZK newspaper (4, see below). Within the hydrogen “cake” there are not only coal, natural gas, biomass and solar heat as application forms. Nuclear power and nuclear heat have their own “district” and of course should not be missing. For the implementation of such a...
