The Untold Story of Nuclear Electricity and How it will Save the World

Isabelle Boemeke . 2025 . 333.7924 . Beaverton Lib

• .pxiii INTRODUCTION

• pxiv most Amazon fires started by illegal land clearing, but climate change makes them more severe

• pxiv Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil gateway to Uruguay☺

• px . How Does the Land Use of Different Electricity Sources Compare?

  • Hanna Ritchie

  • Our World in Data, June 16, 2022v former (NOT NOW) eco-misanthrope, "... humans should go extinct ..."

• pxv others David Attenborough

  • Steven Hawking - humans chemical scum

    • misunderstood by Boemeke
    • "scum" == very thin and vulnerable biolayer film
    • .. on a vastly larger planet
    • .. in a frighteningly dangerous universe

    • implication: we must grow vastly more capable to protect the Earth

    • some say (including me) "the dinosaurs died because they didn't have a space program"

  • #HumansAreTheVirus

• pxvi young people pervasive hopelessness

• pxvi David Deutsch 2011 The Beginning of Infinity CedarMill 501 DEUTSCH

• pxvi every problem is solvable, if we have enough information about it

  • How Does the Land Use of Different Electricity Sources Compare?

  • Hanna Ritchie

  • Our World in Data, June 16, 2022

• p043 'Land Use per KWh' wrong source, odd units, actual data here, units are m²-year per MWh, equivalent to m² per annual average watts divided by 114

• Onshore wind not listed in source, this is presumably spacing of the wind turbines. The land underneath is probably not safe for human dwellings, but it can still be used for agriculture, PV, hydro reservoir, or landfill.
