The Chernobyl accident is painted as one of the great industrial disasters of the twentieth century…
But should we just say no to nuclear just because of what had happened Chernobyl-and not to mention; The Three Mile Island....
In short, this is my view....
If nuclear power were really as dangerous as people believe, isn’t France—with its 59 nuclear reactors making 78 percent of its power—grossly polluted and doomed? Far from it my fellow addicts. The world’s nuclear champion is safe and its health is among the world’s best…
Why cant we Malaysian be optimistic about it? Where is the "Malaysia boleh!" spirit?
Or maybe, Malaysians do not believe in their own capability.... Maybe Malaysians are starting to say that "Malaysia tak boleh"....
We had defy odds.. We have gone through great length in the search for development...
We have KLCC!...once the talllest building in the world...
We have our own F1 team! and the circuit is world class!
We went to space!
Malaysia is already in the world map.....but, should we stop here.......
Are these enough?
So what do all these have anything to do with nuclear?
In the US – the driving economy behind the last economic bubbles – the Obama administration has developed an ambitious plan to develop the renewable energy sector. It has promised to double the share of renewable energies (currently 7%) in its national energy mix over the next three years. It promises to create some 460, 000 new jobs in the energy sector. Under the current stimulus plan, it will invest $25 billion directly in the renewable energy sector. A new energy bill will slate additional funding for the sector. A nationwide emissions trading system will be introduced by 2012..
So, where do we go from here?....do we still need to rely heavily on fossil fuel?
If yes is the answer, tell me where can we get more of them if it is soooo clear that the world is running out of fossil fuel?
Are you willing to pay a staggering price of RM8/litre for your vehicle in the near future? Can our country survive this outbreak?
Changed your mind just yet? Now you think that we need something else to replace fossil fuel, yes?
My question is, what is it?
Solar, wind, nuclear, biofuel?
My answer will be all of them....
However, another question that I would like to ask is.....out of all renewable energy, which one is the most suitable for this country......??
Any way any how, we still have to choose at least one of them.....
No surprise here, my answer will be nuclear........it will be our nation new economic bubble....As private investors struggle to find new profitable sectors to invest in a sinking economy while governments subsidise energy investments, it is possible that the foundations of a new bubble are being lay down on our watch, only to burst at the end of the next economic boom.
Renewable energy is the next bubble.....bye bye internet bubble....your time is up.....
Lets blow the green energy bubble....and burst it! |
