DESCRIPTION:
It is must reading for anyone interested in our energy future." Leon Cooper, Brown University physicist and 1972 Nobel laureate for superconductivity "As our energy future is essential I can strongly recommend the book for everybody interested in this most significant topic." George Olah, 1994 Nobel laureate for carbon chemistry. Millions die from coal plant emissions. Food supplies from sea and land are threatened. Thorium energy can help check CO2 and global warming, cut deadly air pollution, provide inexhaustible energy, and increase human prosperity. Innovative thorium energy uses economic persuasion to end the pollution, to provide energy and prosperity to developing nations, and to create energy security for all people for all time. Energy cheaper than coal will dissuade all nations from burning coal. "This book presents a lucid explanation of the workings of thorium-based reactors. Few nations will adopt carbon taxes or energy policies against their economic self-interests to reduce global CO2 emissions. Our world is beset by global warming, pollution, resource conflicts, and energy poverty. We war over mideast oil. Developing nations' growth exacerbates the crises

B. Kirkpatrick said Thorium, what we should have done. The thorium / molten salt reactor technology developed at Oak Ridge is something everyone needs to know about. It is inherently nonpolluting. It is much safer than light water reactors with far less waste. Thorium is much more abundant than uranium (and cheaper). There is essentially no danger of nuclear weapons proliferation as it doesn't need enriched uranium and doesn't produce plutonium. The operating fluids are noncorrosive unlike the water/steam environment in a standard plant which causes most of the maintenance problems. This book represents a good. MBG said Finally a viable solution to the energy crisis. This is the solution to safe nuclear energy without weapons proliferation. Read and share with all.. Finally the straight dope! Anything from Robert Hargraves is worth reading.this one is a must as it wipes out all of the opposition to nuclear power. Read the book and understand how we all have been brainwashed by the fossil industry. There is no existential substitute for nuclear and Hargraves shows us how cheap it can be.Reese Palley, Author THE ANSWER: Why Only Inherently Safe Mini Nuclear Power Plants Can Save The World.
