Comment on Green party drops longstanding opposition to nuclear power
tenebrisnox@feddit.uk 5 days agoWhich one would you like me to pick? How about Iodine-129 with 15 million or so years?
Have you been reading Russian propaganda again? Breefer reactors. Next you’ll be spouting the benefits of cold fusion for skin care.

France has used breeder reactors for years to great effect

Not true. The ones they used from the 1960s onwards were phased out by 2009. All were pretty much still in testing mode and never deployed at scale. The Superphenix (the last) was shut down over leaks and safety concerns. France’s nuclear are all now 100% Pressurised Water Reactors.
So misinformation or worse, deliberate disinformation, in this thread.

Ok then I’ll change a single letter of my previous comment.
France had used breeder reactors for decades to great effect.

I’d love you to define:
when the reality was they remained small-scale, in testing phase, were dangerous and ultimately scrapped. Next you’ll be waxing lyrically about modular reactors.
