Subject:

relicensing I disapprove of the relicensing of the North Anna nuclear plant when the current license expires. We need to phase out all nuclear power plants because it is highly irresponsible for our generation to create the nuclear waste that generations thousands of years to come will have to continue to monitor long after our civilization has died out. This is playing God on a grand scale in an area where we have no business treading. Nuclear power is ethically untenable and morally reprehensible. We needed to have the technology for handling nuclear waste perfected decades ago, before the first plant was ever built.

Most of the electrical energy we use is wasted. Strict conservation, wind, hydroelectric, solar, and geothermal could be adequate for our energy needs if we put a fraction of the financial resources into research for them that has been put into nuclear energy.

Sincerely, David G. Schwartz, M.D.
