Forbes piece on the NRC, Stancil and Nelson on the podcast, that's not a Tufted Titmouse... Last night, Lorin and I were eating dinner at El Meson, our favorite restaurant in Austin, when I got a text from my friend Tom Popik, saying that the Russians had attacked the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in southeastern Ukraine. The news made me queasy. The senseless destruction of the war and the loss of human life is hard to fathom. And then, on top of that, to learn that the Russians are purposely destroying critical infrastructure and risking a nuclear accident, I struggle to find the words to express my anger, frustration, and disappointment. In particular, to see nuclear plants, the facilities that Emmet Penney rightly called our “industrial cathedrals” attacked, left me deeply sad. I take no joy in pointing out that this war underscores the foolishness of Europe’s woke energy policies and how the politicians' feckless embrace of renewables at the expense of nuclear and hydrocarbons has driven the continent into the ditch. It also provides a stark warning to the U.S. about the dangers of following Europe’s energy suicide, a point I made
