This is interesting as it appears to follow intended route of the mind when listening to duke saying this. Allow me to elaborate duke here is implied to have some kind of knowledge that we ourselves our withheld further implying that we don't ourselves know because of the phrase "but I won't tell you" This is an act often replicated by people in the 1st - 4th grade as they have had less experience and are more likely to tell lies about their knowledge. This is humorous because the final implication is that duke nukem is a child. Over all this comment is funny for explaining the joke just like the comment above which explains the joke to the audience who can almost certainly see fot themselves.

THe thing about the nuclear is waste is a potential reusabilty, and the fact that theyre also solid makes it easier to control

Honestly, the toxic waste created from TikTok has far more devastating effect on people than the waste created from nuclear power plants.

@@cat.in.2020 Still not as dangerous as the byproducts that burning coal produces.

Waste? Use fast reactors and all of it is either toxic as a heavy metal (Lead), or usable as a radiation source. Unprocessed SNF-HLW is a mess because it has a weird af decay schedule. Processed SNF-HLW is basically depleted uranium... Fuel for breeder reactors. Caesium-137, Cobalt-60,and Iodine-131 in MLW/LLW can be used as radiotherapy sources, as well as some other isotopes.

Seems far more likely to be cost and time constraints.

No, the biggest threats are special interest groups and oil companies that are paying off politicians to have regulation and zoning laws changed to make it harder for nuclear and renewable to be built.

Well, some people are also more afraid of taking flight by airplane than walking on the street. Extremely low chance of accidents, but that one accident might be enormous, so they are more exaggerated than they should be.

@@rpdlatk like for instance chernoblyl it was big but they already made a housing around the reactor and i think imo if they have good maintenece(dono how to spel) it sould be good and have fail switches

The thing is, while walking across the street I have some sort of control about the situation and can watch for myself. Also a reactor meltdown causes much bigger problems for a lot more people. I live in the most dense populated area of europe and if this area became uninhabitable by a nuclear failure, there would be somewhere between 6 and 8 million people loosing their homes.

We should invest more in space technology as it might be the only solution for finding alternative source of energy in the future. Space researched could help a lot in the prospects. There's already a nagging idea of propelling Helium-3 which could honestly a good replacement of fossil fuels. This energy resource could be found on the Moon. Another idea is getting unlimited energy from the Sun using satellite panels and could remotely send energy back to Earth. There was something that Nikolas Tesla proposed to get electricity as safe and cleaner but he died before his idea was struck on the next generations. Either way, mankind should really get their heads out of the ground and look for ways as not doing anything would turn out future into the stuff of nightmare for our future generations to experienced.

The green party was the main proponent of shutting down nuclear energy. Ironic.

LMFAO

Just a feeling I guess, like something is about to happen, but I don't know what it means.

The main reason Germany is getting rid of their nuclear power is to not repeat Japan's Fukishima disaster. They announced getting rid of them about a month after that happened.

What sucks is that despite being the smartest species on the planet we still have those living in ignorance either by choice or lack of schooling

The problem is that we have constructed this idea that everyone is entitled to an opinion on everything and that their opinion is just as valuable as that of the experts.

​@@demoniack81 The problem is that as soon as you make the opinions of the experts so valuable that the common man has no input, well, the position of the 'expert' becomes compromised. It becomes a position that people pursue (or PURCHASE) in order to gain power, rather than just to contribute to the world and society. Suddenly the 'experts' are a de facto dictatorship. The more centralized the power, the faster that power becomes corrupted. But even if power in society isn't centralized at first, it WILL become centralized, whether the general populace knows about it or not.

Politicians will either blindly pander to these concerns or have them themselves. The difference is that a politician should be knowledgeable about a topic if they are to give their opinion and vote on it, and always regard scientific evidence over their own premade opinions.

The real world is complicated. People have a bad habit of oversimplifying to suit their biases.

Please do so.

Consider the following thought experiment: You have two technologies. Technology (A) costs 100 € for every MWh it produces. Technology (B) costs 150 € for every MWh produced. For every unit of technology you construct you can decide whether you use (A) or (B). Is there any scenario where you would use a mix of both technologies? EDIT: regarding lordcirth's comment: I assume that you agree with me, that anybody would choose technology (A). Now, you're rightfully said so, that if we add new constraints to these technologies we might decide differently. We have now two other technologies: A grid powered by Nuclear power, which costs today around 100 €/MWh* and the other one is a grid that is powered by wind, solar, power-to-gas, batteries and pump-storage, which will costs around 60 €/MWh by 2050**. Both technologies are similarly reliable, though nuclear has still the (very) small risk to cause significant harm. You can combine these technologies, but they don't complete each other. Would you rather choose technology (A) or technology (B)? * Lazard LCOE 2020 ** Bogdanov et al. "Radical transformation pathway towards sustainable electricity via evolutionary steps"

@@dariusduesentrieb if there is no advantage to B, why would u use it?

@@dariusduesentrieb When A only produces MWh at random times, and B produces at a fixed rate for 30 years with a few days of downtime per decade?

what nobody talks about is waste heat. nuclear is one of the least thermally efficient method of power production. if we keep increasing our electricity consumption then we are going to keep increasing our thermal output. aside from solar all forms of generating electricity produce waste heat. all forms of consuming electricity produce waste heat. you can equate watts to BTU/hr. it would probably be more wise to look at efficiencies, on both the generation and consumption sides rather than the source of generation.

Quite right with the possible exception of hydroelectric power. Solar and wind power are extremely ineffective by comparison to all other forms of energy generation.

This is entirely false, it wouldn’t really take too much storage comparatively.

@@vinser1744 Actually no it is not false at all but the truth. The batteries required to contain the amount of power needed to power cities would have to be massive due to the extreme ineffectiveness of solar and wind power. Solar energy is entirely reliant on clear skies without any clouds whatsoever which is not a daily occurrence ever. Also solar power is useless at night. in order to not drain all your power by morning you would have to shut off/down anything that uses power. During storms or even cloudy days solar power is rendered useless for the duration the sunlight is blocked. Wind power is reliant on calm breezes. Hurricanes, tornadoes, snow storms and even floods are known to put windmills out of commission for quite some time. Also to repair these solar panels or windmills more parts need to be manufactured which puts more pollutants into the atmosphere (not that it matters as we are insignificant in that regard) which nullifies any so called benefits those forms of energy provide. Also if there is no breeze there is no energy being generated. Hydroelectric power on the other hand is far more reliable but such power plants are few and far apart.

@@vinser1744 Just last year we had a space of time where there was no wind for almost 2 weeks and wind power was producing zero to minimal results. If we were rleiant on that we would have needed to store power for 2 weeks, which would means a city-sized battery to power the city.

@@Canadian_Hospitality the one thing keeping humanity back from true progress.

Climate change has and always will exist. The whole AGW narrative is absolute horse shit. We had 20 times more Co2 in the atmosphere for hundreds of millions of years and life flourished and the Earth was green and temperate from pole to pole. Isn't it strange that suddenly we are in a century out of billions of years where the Earth climate is supposedly at absolute optimum with polar ice caps in an interglacial period? Who decided that the 21st century out of thousands of life giving centuries was the perfect one for Earth climate that needed to be preserved for evermore? It is one big joke when you look into it properly but it gets much worse when you look into the agenda behind it. Despite the fact warmest were claiming the Earth will die within a decade because of runaway warming, the same people who said the Arctic sea ice would have melted by the end of the last decade, the UN never saw fit to put restraints on the worlds biggest polluter China and left them exempt of all the industry busting carbon taxes and economy busting green regulations they put on Western nations. Now China accounts for more Co2 emissions than the whole of Europe and US put together and while the West suffered the preplanned UN agenda 21 deindustrialisation, China boomed as the global elite who fund the UN think tanks that come up with these agendas all moved their finance and industry there and made trillions from using cheap dirty energy and child labour. That made just a handful of people responsible so much money that they now own almost 2/3 of the entire worlds wealth between them (Oxfam 2017 report) So when I see poor puppet Greta and extinction rebellion demanding zero emissions in London and Bozo the globalist stooge obliging even as the UK economy reels under his nefarious lockdown policies I have to laugh because Co2 makes up just 0.035% of atmosphere and of that only about 3% is man made (0.001%) and Britain's contribution to that just 1% of that which is 0.00001% of atmosphere. That means if Britain had zero emissions tomorrow atmospheric Co2 would be reduced from 0.035% to 0.03499% or by 100/1000th of 1% over decades if not centuries.

@@Muckylittleme The whole idea that what is happening is “normal” is absolute horse shit. What you’re talking about is the earth’s climate naturally changing over millions of years, this is happening over a few decades. Also, what you talk about with there having been “better climates” before this current one is complete nonsense. I don’t know if it escaped your notice, but humans weren’t alive in the time of the dinosaurs. We are adapted to live in our current climate, and not just biologically but socially as well. As a species we can only cope with so much flooding, so much drought. We can’t just continue destroying the planet and convince ourselves it’s not our fault.

​ @Dan Brown Oh dear, there is so much here that I hardly know where to begin. Has climate change always existed? Yes, of course it has. Nobody is suggesting that the climate is stationary. Has atmospheric conditions and the climate ever changed this rapidly and continuously in recent history? Not as far as I know, and we're going to continue suffering as a result. Every time earth has faced sudden climate changes in the past, be it from large asteroids or volcanic eruptions, mass death followed. Earth will obviously continue to be fine, but life will definitely be less enjoyable and more full of suffering if we continue on this path of self-indulgence without care for what we do to the world. Of course the climate is changing, but when it's changing this rapidly things don't adapt well. Is China producing a lot of CO2? Yes, and they should be doing their best to limit it. But, like videos this channel has covered in the pass on who is responsible, the west has also polluted more if you look at history. Overall, it should be irrelevant who gets the blame because blaming people will get us nowhere. Everyone should be doing the best they can to prevent further damage. China is definitely far from perfect, from their pollution to disregard for freedoms, but pointing to them and saying "we should be polluting to" is a terrible mindset. Everyone should be striving to be better. And then there's this weird idea of some globalist conspiracy about climate change... what? Ah yes, large fossil fuel producing countries and extremely large and wealthy oil companies couldn't have been contributing to any kind of conspiracy against the idea of global warming, it must be those thousands of scientists and activists who want to destroy us, that definitely makes sense... No matter how you look at it, it makes sense to strive for a future where we mitigate extreme climate change. The overwhelming majority of economists agree that investing in a zero carbon future makes sense given the extreme costs in damages we would face in the future if we don't. The overwhelming majority of scientists agree that rapid climate change is an issue. Has there been hyperbole in the past? Yes. Have there been incorrect predictions made in the past? Also yes. We need to keep researching and discovering more about how everything is being affected. The entire globe is an extremely complicated ecosystem and when something as big as these atmospheric changes we've been inducing these centuries comes along the effects on the system are numerous in ways that we may not know yet. TL:DR: Yes, modern western countries like those in Europe are not contributing as much CO2 in the present as more developing countries, but they have historically contributed more. Does this really matter at the moment? I don't think so. We should all be striving to be better, not worse. The world's ecosystem is extremely complicated with everything interacting with everything else that we might not know what the effects are yet. A global conspiracy that climate change is fake makes literally no sense and is like saying that the moon landing was faked. Even if you ignore climate change, going neutral means less pollution in the places that we live, and I like not breathing in poison. Mitigating extreme climate change is in our own best interests in terms of economics and our future well-being. It's cheaper to put out the stove fire than letting it burn down the entire house.

@@Zosu22 ya know, on a platform where its so easy to just insult someone you disagree with, i really appreciate the calm and collected response. i applaud you, whoever you may be.

@@henrybarber288 But it isn't happening over a few decades, that is the debunked hockey stick. You have to look at all the data not just cherry pick the data that pushes your agenda. And regardless there have been bigger changes over shorter periods both warming and cooling. It has clearly escaped your notice that Earth climate is no the same around the globe and mankind survives perfectly well from Africa to Arctic. The Cambrian period had 20 times more Co2 in the atmosphere than now and it was Earths most productive time for diversity of life because it was temperate from pole to pole as I said. And what makes you think this climate is more suitable to man that that? Much more of the Earth is inhospitable now and it is far less green. But then we all know the AGW agenda is anti human not pro human though they do rather favour polar bears for some reason, which by the way are thriving. Listen, environmentalism is no bad thing so long as it is based in reality and actually about the environment. Anti pollution benefits plant and animal alike. But that is not what AGW policies are about as I explained. They are about making very rich and powerful people even richer and more powerful while their puppet celebrities parade around telling you not to eat meat to save the planet while they fly their private and collect mansions and live in opulence with a carbon footprint that is a thousand times higher than yours or mine. So how about, if you really believe this is a crisis, you get all the richest people in the world who are behind the agenda to give up all their luxuries before we start eating insects to save the planet? Surely they would have no issue with it given they are the ones who tell us the Earth is on fire. And "we" are not destroying the planet, at least I know I'm not, I don't even drive a car. The people doing any damage and polluting are the same people behind the AGW agenda, the same people who made trillions in China and had them build thousands of new dirty coal plants to fuel their industry while our clean burning plants were shutdown by their mandates. If nothing else, take a look at the hypocrisy of those who fund the eco-fascists and anarcho-communists and ask how their AGW policies make any sense except for keeping us poor while they get to mop the last remaining wealth.

Power plants still use oil based products

You have to understand that election campaigns need a lot of money and energy companies are the major funders. It's a sad reality but energy companies literally control the world and they would do anything to hinder legislations that puts them under threat. I am actually currently making a video about this very topic. Its the grim reality

@@DyslexicMitochondria sad truth

You need to understand that democracy is the ad populum fallacy made into a political system

Disney will eventually by kurgezart just hope they don’t ruin them too

they do that in most of their videos actually, but this time was far more explicit then usual. most of the time they have the duck in the corner holding an 'opinion' sign or just show to title slide more briefly.

Oh, right. I forgot how human humans tend to be.

This is one of the wisest things ever said. Humanity really does tend to make things harder than necessary.

We are humans nothing is perfect for us...

Me: **takes their beer and throws it at their face** “How ‘bout no?”

We have humans are greedy

Not to mention gasoline is 30x as energy dense as lithium ion batteries. (I can't remember the exact statistic, but Engineering Explained made a great video about it)

This is only if you compare the battery to not building a battery. If you were to compare the environmental impact of a battery cell compared to say a CPU, a coffee machine or an iPhone, the battery is the lesser concern. Plastics, Silicon, Resin, Copper, Auminiiiiium (fuck people that say Aluminum) all has to come from somewhere. Nobody gave a shit how stuff was made, but once someone wants to make you think about combatting climate change while not loosing too much comfort, people take every hint of a potential flaw and make a fuss of it instead of compromising on a slightly less wasteful solution.

@@VulpeculaJoy an additional issue that doesn't seem to raise eyebrows more often; the environmental impact (re fossil fuels) is grim, another valid concern is the 'non renewable' of non renewables (across human lifespan) would be great to shift over to protect the environment meets needs to be done if we wish to maintain our current lifestyle in the not so distant future

Wind and solar panels are also toxic for the environment.

@@mitchjames9350 A lot less toxic and cheaper to produce and maintain than nuclear or gas/coal. Do you even know how many tons of concrete and steel it takes to build a traditional power plant and how bad the environmental impact is? There area already projects that aim to recycle the fiberglass within the wings of old wind turbines. You gotta get your power somehow, otherwise, the best thing for nature is for us humans to return to hunting and gathering. I figure you don't want to get rid of your PC though to write stupid comments on the internet, so that's not an option.

RIGHT ON

That would be nice, but would it really happen? In the past the nuclear industry has worked to cripple the emergence of renewable energy.

This is a very controversial topic. Usually the left is for renewables, the right is for nuclear. I'm left, but I see nuke as a potential friend anyway. People are too rigid in their thinking sometimes

@@irthlingz just as renewables industries work really hard to stop nuclear emergence nowadays. A lot of green organisations demonize every aspect of nuclear and spread a lot of fear and misinformation about nuclear power.

Absolutely. I am definitely in the pro-nuclear camp but there's a lot to be said for having local distributed sources of electricity generated by renewable clean sources, not just to add to the baseline source nuclear can handle but also for resiliency against the increasing extreme weather events we're going through (being in California and seeing all the wildfires each year getting worse and worse, our electrical grid cannot cope). Transmission line losses alone are enough to argue that while we can't entirely rely on renewables, generating more electricity locally through city or even neighborhood-centric grids lets us reduce those by quite a bit.

@F*СК MЕ - СНЕCK МY РR0FILЕ damn these bots are getting wierd

Hell yea. And he's at the kite part so you know he's beaten some bosses already

Nuclear energy was a legitimate threat to the fossil fuel industry so companies campaigned hard to make it look like the most horrible thing ever, taking advantage of the fact that the most common nuclear reactor designs produce materials that can be used to make nuclear weapons. Combine that with what happened at Chernobyl and it wasn't very difficult to convince the population that nuclear energy is too dangerous. Younger generations are more willing to give nuclear energy a chance, but the older generations which lived through the Cold War are still clinging to the idea that nuclear must be avoided at all costs.

@@filipwolffs I’m guessing the anti-nuclear propaganda started after chernyobl

@@filipwolffs funny thing is this isn’t the only propaganda and lobbying. all sorts of companies of every sector which has caused a regression in the progression of humanity and all sorts of funny quirks like why Americas infrastructure is all car based and built around cars instead of people causing a nice twisted knife into its back from its dependence on such inefficient paradigms like suburban sprawl.

Stupidity. People look at objectively the safest, cleanest and most reliable form of energy and somehow convince themselves it is the opposite of those things. sometimes we just need to plow forward regardless of who is in the way, because the alternative is allowing tens of millions of people to die.

@@cageybee7221 nuclear waste is actually a good thing because while other energy sources pollute into the atmosphere (fossil fuel) or Solar the supposedly “clean energy source” which generates thousands of tons of waste that’s just shipped to Africa because it’s to expensive to recycle and then there’s nuclear which can easily be contained in hyper protected barrels
