I stand corrected regarding ultimate disposal and apparently they are planning to use it in a clever way.
Thank you for letting me know!

Compared to fossil fuels I tend to prefer nuclear as well, because even though mining uranium has quite some ecological impact including emitting carbon emissions, running a nuclear power plant doesn’t have carbon emissions and that’s important.
What worries me is that there are nuclear power plants around the world and despite the first nuclear power plant having been built 70 years ago, not a single ultimate disposal place for the radioactive waste has been found/created.
Having “cheap” electric energy for 3-4 generations and putting a burden on the next 40,000 generations just does sound like a bad deal to me.
Until we have more wind and hydro, keeping nuclear running might be a price we have to pay.
Not being able to dispose of some more (thousands of) tons of radioactive waste is making the problem only quantitatively worse and not qualitatively.
It’s a great example to show electric energy based on wind, water, solar is the way to go - not only because it’s more environmentally friendly than fossil fuels of any kind or nuclear, but it’s economically better as well.
Thanks for sharing!
What if their authority recognizes you?
Not of it’s neither A nor B ;)
Would you trust ChatGPT to know?
Thank you for the additional info.
I think I just wanted to believe there’s at least one religion that leads to good deeds and good deeds only. You may call me naive.
Someone doesn’t like our comments. Have we kicked a hornet’s nest? lol.
I’ve only been able to see Buddhism practiced in the west. I couldn’t have imagined how horrible it can be practiced elsewhere.
In all fairness, what they do with animals is opposed to Buddhist doctrine.
Then again a lot of what (fundamentalist) Christians do is opposed to Christian doctrine.
The common denominator seems to be: horrible people doing horrible things in the name of $placeholder.
I’d love to get the long version, because from what I’ve gathered so far Buddhism doesn’t appear to be built around aggregation and (ab)use of power.
I may be completely off though and would like to have additional information!
Buddhism wants to have a word with you.
Your understanding is correct.
Relativistic mass increases the faster the moving object gets. That in turn means more energy is required to accelerate an object the closer it gets to the speed of light.
Fun fact: the speed of light is not as absolute as it might seem when looking at relativistic effects. In media with a refraction index above 1 (only perfect vacuum has a refractiom index of 1), the speed of light equals 1/(refraction index).
For light moving in water that results in a speed of light of around 3/4 the speed of light in vacuum.
It’s fair pointing out the lack of (sufficient) storage for electric energy, but I’d say the average price of electricity in Finland for the past week indicates both capabilities of renawables and lack of storage.
