The thing i realize is people are only worried about protecting and preserving pretty environments, Which is why we get to irrigate deserts into some of the richest farm land in the country (kern county) which is why it wouldnt be a problem to put a suitable watersupply around a desert based nuclear plant, Besides it doesnt burn water off, i just heats it, then it recollectsit and uses it again. The extra water is used to cool the reactor to prevent meltdown, but thats just a mater of water supply, and we have plenty of artificial MASSIVE lakes in this country, indeed the majove desert has moutains around it, indeed in kern county again we have several artifical lakes, one being in the moutains near majove.
The problem you have with nuclear plants is good hearted but uneducated people fearing them. Remember when they launched the cassini probe? and there where protesters because they were convenced that if something happened the plutonium in it would exploid and it would destroy the world. Which couldnt happen no mater what.. So you cant even consider nuclear power with out someone throwing a fit. Yet when done right it can be clean and safe...
The real problem with these organization isnt that they are trying to curb polution, its that politicians are setting them up just to pander to environmentalist. Thats why we have that special crap in our gasoline.. No one stopped to actually see if the stuff works. What we need desiding our environmental laws are scientist studying the stuff for a living. Not politicians and scared morons.
But like i say, most so called environmentalist just want things to be pretty in there area with no actual concern for the environment. What we need are laws and organizations that make sense. You want to see the biggest problem with carb rules in california? The cars that pollute the most, gas guzzlers form the early 70s and beyond dont have to follow the laws. They dont even have to run a cat! i think i would run one no mater what! with how well they work, its not worth the extra horse power you will get by removing a properly functioning catalitic converter. My car with a sr20 will probably pollute something like 100th the amount of a muscle car from the late 60s, if not less, Yet that will be illegal, but not the muscle car.
Brand new SUVs can roll off the lot as "trucks" and pollute alot more and get worse millage then anything i can do to my car, yet those modifications to my car would be illegal.
You see the problems? we can protect the environment and still enjoy automobiles if we do it intelegently. Random laws and acts wont help.

Not sure about the spelling there... but that’s the prehistoric (not extinct to my knowledge) bacteria that was a major contributor to the creation of the Earth's atmosphere.
