Can thorium nuclear energy make a comeback?

Nuclear energy gets a pretty bad rap – for good reasons. But thorium, a weakly radioactive element, is hailed to fix all its problems: no meltdowns, less waste, no bombs. We developed a molten-salt reactor to unlock its potential decades ago – but then turned our backs on it. Was that a huge mistake? Credits: Reporter: Malte Rohwer-Kahlmann Video Editor: Frederik Willmann Supervising Editor: Michael Trobridge We're destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn't need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we'll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess. #PlanetA #Thorium #Nuclear Read More: Atomic Energy Commission report on molten-salt reactors (1972): https://www.osti.gov/servlets/purl/43...
