Werewolf Japan Nuclear James Lovelock, scientist, creator of the Gaia hypothesis
, said in an interview posted on 08/03/2007 The World as following:
"The danger of a nuclear accident is more or less the same credibility as the stories were told in the nineteenth century on the werewolves' . With this approach it is not surprising that it affirms, in the same interview, which
" nuclear energy was the only viable option to save human civilization climate change" .
Here you can read the full interview.
seems that, unfortunately, the facts of these days in Japan have come to take the right. This is not to say that there be suspicious of everything scientists say. Absolutely, I think, on the contrary, their views should be taken into account much more ahead, of course, what we say journalists, politicians, pundits or bloggers around a hundred like me, who often speak without knowledge of cause. But I do want to influence that we have a more critical attitude to what we say and not accept no more. Doubt. Because, of course, there are honest scientists, who rightly or wrong in good faith, and others would argue instead that hand on your wallet and leaving the ethical background. I say this because these days we are seeing in the news many experts whose opinions are curiously most appropriate, the most benefit to the companies they work directly or indirectly. The more detail you can read here
.
And this I say scientists are perfectly applicable to journalists or politicians. For example, what credibility can we deserve Gonzalez and Aznar when defending nuclear energy, if both are employed by English energy companies, with direct interests in the subject? What credibility can have those journalists who ask that there is no pandering to the nuclear issue and that no decisions hot when the former than in many other subjects have been the first to demagoguery and ask that they take strong measures ipso facto?
Impossible is nothing
This
to refresh memories and to question the word 'impossible. " Although it is clear that the Iberian Peninsula is an area of \u200b\u200bhigh seismic activity, it is good to keep in mind that in 1755
there was a huge earthquake off the coast of Portugal that devastated Lisbon
(killed a third of its population)
and damaged many more Peninsula. The earthquake, which was followed by three tidal waves, is said to be the first documented earthquake, because the Marquis de Pombal in Portugal, and Fernando VI in Spain, collected information through questionnaires sent to the most outstanding of the most important in Portugal and Spain.
With this documentation, kept in the National Historical Archive, we know that the damage came in Spain, for example, to Salamanca, which destroyed part of the New Cathedral, or The Navalucillos, in Toledo, where he collapsed Mudejar church tower. The worst part is logically led Andalusia, the area closest to the epicenter, about 200 km off the Portuguese coast, , And in particular the coast of Huelva and Cadiz, where the three tsunamis that followed the earthquake had a devastating effect. Ayamonte only 1000 people died.
This earthquake was the starting point of the current seismology has been the subject of numerous investigations, the result of which geologists estimate that the intensity of the earthquake would be between 8.5 and 9 on the scale Richter. That is, if these studies are correct,
the earthquake that affected the Iberian Peninsula was of an intensity similar to that recently suffered Japan.
honestly think that if what we are seeing in Japan the world is not able to send the nuclear shit, maybe he is the world that deserves to go to hell. And what I'm seeing, I think that paint clubs, because while some countries seem to reconsider its nuclear policies, others such as China, India and Russia have already said they will continue with its nuclear plans. And our dear European Union, what? As she, so brave and strong as ever when it comes to taking action, said that he would subject their nuclear tests of resistance 'voluntary'. Huevacos Go!
