The time available for implementation of climate change mitigation
measures is only a few decades. In addition to the cost of nuclear
power capacity expansion the cost of managing climate migrants must also be met.
Present federal government led climate change mitigation policies are not
founded in physics, are ineffective and block effective provincial remedial action.
A fossil carbon tax is ineffective if a consumer does not have an
economic clean energy alternative.
Addressing climate change requires engineering leadership:
a) Climate change is a much more serious threat to public safety
than hypothetical nuclear accidents;
b) Investment in new fossil fuel infrastructure must stop;
c) Fossil fuel suppliers that fail to invest in sustainable nuclear power
must be bankrupted irrespective of pension plan consequences;
d) Corrupt and/or technically incompetent government and utility
decision makers must be terminated;
e) Governments must be guided by independent professional engineers,
not public opinion or ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) like regulations.
