[@RDNCK0378]

@meggiemcguire8114 You might want to go back to school, sadly your knowledge in the field of Product Relocation Engineering is exiguous, at best. First off, I want to make one thing perfectly clear, I do NOT in ANY WAY agree with the mining of Uranium, ANY TIME OR ANYWHERE!!! That is not what I am commenting on. I just want to help @meggiemcguire8114, & anyone else that might be curious, to learn something new today. Non Potable Water does not mean Radioactive. Non Potable Water means "Water that is not acceptable for human consumption. It can come from a variety of sources, such as lakes, springs, ground wells, rivers, & groundwater." Look it up. Now when it comes to the transfer of Radioactive Materials (ie. radioactive water, contaminated soil, etc..), it is required, by Federal Law, that the Radioactive Material(s) be transported in a Double-Lined, completely Air Tight Sealed Container. AND that container/trailer is Required to have Visible Placards (with HazMat info) on all 4 sides. ALSO, the driver is Required to be HazMat Certified. ALL of these Rules MUST be met or that truck is not moving an inch. If for any reason it does move, then the fines, to BOTH Driver & Transportation Company, can be upwards in the 5-6 figure range, loss of license for the driver (commercial & non-commercial), AND that company can lose its HazMat certification (means they can NOT transport HazMat anymore). Fun Fact; HazMat means Hazardous Material(s). Another Fun Fact; New paint is considered Hazardous Material & is required to have the above mentioned Placards on the truck/trailer when in transport. If anyone thinks any of this info is incorrect, provide proof. Then you can discuss it with my husband. FYI he just happens to be a full time, gone on the road WAY more than he is home, across the entire lower 48 states, HazMat Certified, 10+ years, Truck Driver. He is where I get my info from, & if I am wrong, then so is he. And he is never wrong or it could be his job, or worse his life. That's not something we're willing to risk. 🙏🙏🙏 Oh & PS We proudly call AZ home too!!!😘😘

When you delve deeper into researching cancer rates across the US, I believe the numbers are being vastly underreported. I myself went through major cancer treatment where I spent a week in a hospital undergoing around the clock chemotherapy. During that time, you see patients come and go, with new faces daily. My follow-up appointments after chemotherapy was radiation treatment which was about 2months of daily targeted radiation therapy which again, I rarely saw the same people twice. For the most part the thing with radiation treatment is that they generally keep all their patients on a tight schedule because there's so many people that need to be treated that you can't afford to miss any appointments. If you ever wonder why or how you got cancer just look at everything around you. The water, the air, the food, the things you wear, the things you use every day are all toxic or have harmful effects on the body and the environment. There's literally a million things that can give you cancer now it's ridiculous!

Correction: any type of mining causes environmental damage. But without it our civilisation as we know it wouldn't work. One way or another: ores have to be mined somewhere. And stuff deep underground is more or less always way more radioactive than materials on the surface. Radioctive decay is the reason life as we know it can exist on planet earth, without it our planet would have cooled down to solid rock ages ago. Fun fact: burning coal releases radiation as well, and we burn hella lot of it... the cancer caused this way is many times more wide spread than that from uranium use. Yes, people scared of radiation should focus more on coal power than on nuclear. But that would require thinking about it, instead of blind anti nuclear activism.

[@sendthis9480]

Here’s an analogy I thought of recently. A little off topic, but still works for the discussion: Look up “most important human inventions”. There’s a lot of lists, however they all basically say the same thing, meaning there is a consensus. You’ll see things like: the wheel, fire, written word. Then, on all those lists usually around 6 or 7th is the internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine has increased human lifespan by up to fifteen years! It has advanced human development almost as much as the wheel or fire. It is THAT important to humans. Now…look at the gulf war, the invasion of Iraq, and all the mess in the Middle East. Those that oppose it complain “it’s just a war for oil and greed”. However… What if we had to fight a war in order to use the wheel??? What if we had to fight a war because some dictator was arbitrarily raising the price on our use of the written word??? What if someone was regulating our use of fire???? Kind of puts things into perspective.

I was thinking the same thing. A little research shows that the 30ppb is the max safe level for consistent drinking water. WATOP has started doing moronic propaganda videos for a while now. The little respect I had for him years ago has turned into disgust. Unsubscribing is the best option

First, education. This video was rubbish. It breaks down to, in the 70's we did something bad. What if it happens again? This is not the 70's. We have computers now.

I wonder where people think we will all go once we destroy this planet

[@TB-zw7dt]

The sad thing is that nuclear energy COULD provide us with abundant energy that could be more green than other sources currently used. Nuclear start up is expensive and requires much money to do cleanly. Companies cutting corners makes it dirty. Thus, that leads to regulations that make it more expensive (with good reason) and makes it less practical. It's like a snake eating itself.

Beryllium is bad news, as well. A lot of spots in Utah where it is mined is causing folks to drop like flies.

I had always thought the waste problem was under control but I guess not, how disgusting, and you say oil is the problem? I would rather have a Oil problem than a Uranium problem, but that's just me?

The CO2 problem with existing sources of energy is so bad that none of this matters, it's preferable to the alternative.

Australia just legislated the first uranium dump policy. America does not have one and waiting for American ships to dump the crap here. Please don’t let it be sent offshore.

Fun fact everything has radiation

[@sendthis9480]

Anything warmer than absolute zero emits thermal radiation. Human brain activity generates a magnetic field which is radioactive. Even potassium and the tissues in our thyroids emit radiation.

Where is the explanation of what's on the thumbnail??? I am so tired of being clickbaited by a picture only to find out it never shows up in the video or story....next...

[@macforme]

There are people in America who are dead set against regulations on how things are disposed of. This cost companies money. They won't want to spend the money because it affects the stockholders...so they dump where ever they want. Enter the Government who wants to protect the citizens and make the companies to the right thing for present and the future inhabitants. That government will be vilified and scorned and they will try to remove the people from office.... does any of this sound familiar? ... It should.

It's hard to believe, but what was discovered in the Grand Canyon could endanger even Arizona! This makes us reflect on the fragility of nature and humans. Are we accidentally putting ourselves in danger without even knowing it?

I don't disagree with your take on the risks. However, I ask a question. What else are we going to do other than take that risk? We NEED the uranium for power plants. POWER PLANTS. We can not produce enough solar and wind energy. Hydroelectric dams are also devasting to the surrounding ecosystem. Nuclear Power Plants produce A LOT of energy at much less pollution and damage. Note I said "less", not zero. So what are we supposed to do? Just not have that source of power? Rely more on coal power plants? Have everyone just ride bikes to charge their own home generators? I mean, what else are we supposed to do? So I hear a lot of, "what if" in this video regarding the risks, but no definite, "this is GOING to leak and this IS going to destroy." Just a lot of IF this leaks, IF this breaks down....So.....Fear will prevent progress every time. And no, for my part, I don't ask due to a sense of not caring or greed. I ask, because even though these "what if" scenarios are questions that NEED to be looked at, I ask again, What else are we going to do other than take the risk and do our best to mitigate them?
