Uranium ETF Breaks Out on Japan's Pro-Nuclear Stance

Someone in Japan wised up and figured out that ditching nuclear entirely wasn't feasible.

The Germans will smugly tell you that the are nuclear free (that actually happened to me in Houston ... a couple of smug Germans lecturing on me how primitive Canada was because of our continued use of nuclear energy). They fancy themselves "green" but they import rather large amounts of electricity from France, every watt of which is generated by reactors.

I guess that German "Greeness" consists of letting the untermenchen auslanders take the risks, do the work.

Coal burning is the leading method of producing electricity in Germany.

Now that's primitive, more so than nuclear.

Burning coal is also a larger source of environmental radiation than nuclear energy is.

That incident actually happened. They literally lectured me on the evils of nuclear. Had this not been a business encounter, I would have pointed out the vast technological lead that our CANDU system has over whatever clunkers the Germans had been using as nuclear reactors. Have you ever seen a technokraut look at you with stunned disbelief?
