USA Energy Intensity and Carbon Intensity improvements

Molten Salt Reactors make CO2-free electricity and CO2-neutral vehicle fuel, with far less long-term nuclear waste than nuclear reactors we have been using.

Washington Post, Nuclear power entrepreneurs push thorium as a fuel

Comments on good Washington Post article about LFTR (but sloppy about specifying whether talking about solid-fuel or molten-fuel reactors).

Nuclear Waste Cleanup is expensive, is there a better way than Storing it?

by George - WordPress Security | Feb 12, 2012 | MSR, LFTR, Nuclear Waste | 1 comment

Maybe instead of spending billions on cleaning up radioactive waste, spend some of that on developing reactors that leave less than 1% of the waste? Molten Salt Reactors can Fission LWR waste.
