Quote: "Nukes again? Maybe. The United States operates 103 nuclear power reactors—that's a quarter of the world's total—even if the most famous U.S. nuke isn't even real."
Questions: Why do we have so many nuclear reactors? Wasn't the US supposed to destroy their nuclear power by 50% or something?
Comments: This was the first line of the article, but after reading a little, I found it out was probably the only one that interested me. First of all, we have enough nuclear power to bomb the world ten fold don't we? I don't think we need all of that. There are so many other ways to get fuel other then nuclear fuel. I personally think it's dangerous as heck. It puts humanity in so much danger for what, fuel that is possible bad for the environment anyway?

Quote: "'There's far more coal than oil," Audus said.

'Even the most pessimistic person would probably be fairly happy to concede there's at least 200 or 300 years of coal in the ground.'

'In which case,' he added, 'clean coal technologies will be extremely useful.'"
Questions: Is this being done now? What is the financial cost?
Comments: This segment was sort of interesting This technique will take a while. We know that. Is this waiting worth it? At this point, we're going to run out of oil and the world will be in a huge frenzy for energy. I still don't understand what's the con with using solar panels and electricity. I suppose some things will always run on coal and gas, but electricity is so plentiful that's it's not even funny. I REALLY don't think the sun will "lose" energy. I don't think it's possible, it's a huge ball of energy. If the sun goes supernova, we're all going to die anyway. It's an unlimited energy source, I'm befuddled at why we don't invest in using it and shifting technology towards electricity.
