And Zion Lights, who was a leading Green activist, did some research and found that everything she learned from her Green associates was wrong.
She's still wrong about fossil fuels, but nobody's perfect
Everything I believed about nuclear waste was wrong zionlights.substack.com/p/everything-i-believed-about-waste-was-wrong

She's still wrong about fossil fuels, but nobody's perfect
On a panel in Paris last year, I called nuclear power plants national monuments, and I believe that they are, because they represent clean air, good jobs, and high-quality lifestyles. I think we should decorate nuclear power stations like the mural on the Cruas-Meysse cooling tower in France. We should celebrate what humankind can achieve with clean energy: a high quality of life for everybody, without the negative impacts of burning fossil fuels.
Now I am in my 30s and I have two children. I have hugged dry fuel casks. I understand that each cask represents 4 billion kilowatt-hours of zero-carbon electricity. That’s enough to run nearly 1.3 million homes for a year. I tell this to my children. Every day when I wake up, I am grateful to be able to provide my family with a warm, safe home, as I know that billions of people around the world do not yet share this privilege.

The idea that low levels of radiation are dangerous comes from studies published in the second half of the twentieth century. In this important paper, Professor Ed Calabrese and Dr Mikko Paunio reveal that these were either fraudulent or erroneous.

Nuclear safety expert reveals ‘foolish’ nuclear guidelines
An expert on radiation and nuclear safety has said that official guidelines on clearing up after nuclear accidents are ‘foolish’ because they are leading to vast expenditure to address small risks.
In a new report for the Global Warming Policy Foundation, Dr Mikko Paunio, a former chairman of Finland’s Radiation Protection Committee, describes the steps taken to deal with contaminated land in the aftermath of the Fukushima accident. International guidelines required the authorities to remove millions of tonnes of agricultural soil, at a cost running into tens of billions of pounds. However, the number of cancer deaths prevented was tiny, even under the pessimistic – and hotly disputed – assumption that low doses of nuclear radiation can cause cancer.
Dr Paunio says
‘Even under the most pessimistic assumptions about the number of deaths that might be caused by contaminated agricultural soil, it is impossible to justify the huge cost of removing it. This is yet another example of precautionary approaches leading to foolish policies’.
Harry Wilkinson, head of policy at GWPF said:
‘As the problems with renewable energy become clearer, support for nuclear power is growing. However, if we want to see a nuclear renaissance, political leaders are going to have to deal with significant levels of over-regulation that are holding it back.’

Notes for editors
Many prominent experts dispute the so-called ‘linear no-threshold theory’ which assumes that low doses of nuclear radiation can cause cancer. Dr Paunio has set out in an earlier paper some of the extraordinary problems with the underlying science.
