Yucca Mountain finally going to die?
I’ll believe it when I see it, but given the incoming President’s environmental stances along with this recent quote from Harry Reid, and I’m starting to feel a little better about it:
“Yucca Mountain is history, OK?” Reid said in an interview Wednesday. “Just watch, we’ll see what happens real soon, just watch. You will see it bleed real hard in the next year.”
I have an idea - why not take the $20 billion still sitting around for the project and use it to build some serious solar and wind projects out here in the middle of the desert? Let the states that use nuclear power figure out where to store their own garbage.
