    Complete bullshit. Just enough of the basic tech checks out to fool an investor. They going to knock protons off thousands of pounds of nuclear waste and irradiated material? One atom at a time? Good thing there aren’t many atoms in things, It’ll only take a few hours at most, lol.

    This’ll be used by people wanting to sell expensive, dangerous nuclear reactors. That still produce nuclear waste, and sometimes melt down to create global disasters. Instead of cheap, easy wind and solar.

    This is just a scam, but like most scams, there’s some real, and some made-up information.

      Oh look, another armchair expert going in about how nuclear is a waste of time and effort, literally using the same argument that oil companies have been using to keep nuclear away.

      “oh it’s so sooper dooper dangerous, you should invest in renewables” lobbies the shit out of nations to keep wind and solar projects from taking off

      Sources. You need to back all of that up then compare it to fossil fuels and the damage to the environment they cause then shut the fuck up.
