Sure makes us vulnerable though. From foreign attacks, hackers, and mistakes in operation.

What.. wind and solar are not it !?! Say it ain’t so! Mind-blowing!

At least nuclear energy is less harmful than coal burning
But a company with capabilities like Google should opt first for green alternatives like wind or solar energy
