Populist Dialogues - 17-30 Nuclear - A Dying Industry

Charles Johnson of the Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility's Joint Task Force on Nuclear talks with us again about the current state of the nuclear industry. He starts by focusing on SB990 in the Oregon Legislature and its demise. And then move to discussion of the Columbia Generating Station in Wash. state and efforts to close it down with a focus on how we replace its energy production with wind and solar renewable energy. And combine the renewable energy with storage abilities like batteries and pump storage. And ends the program with a description of the current state of the nuclear industry - "This is a dying industry."
