Marc Andreessen just explained how the United States assassinated its own future. In the 1970s, the Nixon administration launched something called Project Independence. The mandate was absolute. Andreessen: “Build a thousand new civilian nuclear power plants in the US by the year 2000.” One thousand reactors. Unlimited, carbon-free baseload power. Enough electricity to move the entire country to electric vehicles four decades ahead of everyone else. But it went further than energy. Andreessen: “It’s called Project Independence because it means the US won’t have to be involved in the Middle East anymore, because we won’t need the oil.” No oil dependence. No Gulf Wars. No generations of soldiers stationed in deserts protecting supply chains that never needed to exist. A complete strategic withdrawal from the Middle East. Permanent. And none of this was hypothetical. Andreessen: “France ran for a long time almost entirely on nuclear power. Japan ran for a long time almost entirely on nuclear power.” Other nations proved it worked at scale. America had more capital, more engineers, and more ambition than all of them. Andreessen: “How many nuclear power plants were built out of the thousand? Rounds to zero.” Zero. Not because the physics failed. Not because something superior replaced it. Because the same administration that drafted the blueprint for unlimited energy also created the institution that killed it. Andreessen: “They never got built because the Nixon administration also created the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, which made it its purpose in life is to stop nuclear power plants from getting built.” Same government. Same decade. Same pen. One directive launching the most ambitious energy program in American history. Another creating the bureaucracy that would quietly dismantle it from the inside. Andreessen: “The Nuclear Regulatory Commission did not approve a new nuclear plant design for 40 years.” Forty years of zero approved designs. Not because no one submitted them. Because the institution built to regulate nuclear energy became the institution built to prevent it. That’s not oversight. That’s abolition dressed as due diligence. We spent the next fifty years fighting wars in the desert for a resource we never needed. Choked the atmosphere with carbon we didn’t have to burn. Terrified an entire generation with the illusion of scarcity. And the entire time, the physics already worked. The government didn’t fail to navigate the energy crisis. They took the densest source of energy in the universe and drowned it in paperwork. Every war fought for oil. Every carbon debate. Every geopolitical crisis of the last half century. All of it was a policy choice. We didn’t lack the technology to power the future. We let a committee outlaw the math.

As we all know, generating electricity is actually "boiling water". A large amount of waste heat from steam cannot be converted into electrical energy in this process. How to improve energy utilization efficiency? By using nuclear energy to supply steam and heat required in petrochemical production, The Tianwan Nuclear Power Steam Supply Project, "Heqi-1," achieves China’s first large-scale industrial steam supply using nuclear energy. It increases the actual thermal efficiency of nuclear power plants from 37% to 42% and creates new opportunities for energy conservation, carbon reduction.

BREAKING: Trump announces that his upcoming administration will build new Nuclear Power Plants to supply cheaper electricity for the next generation of American innovation "We have to produce massive electricity," "Nuclear now has become very good, very safe, and you build the smaller plants and you attach them... Nuclear is very powerful, very good." Via the Shawn Ryan interview This is why they are doing everything in their power to stop Trump. He doesn't work for anybody. He works for the American people. Guess who it would "hurt" to have nuclear energy... the oil and gas lobbies, but Trump is willing to do it because it's the RIGHT thing to do If we double the amount of nuclear energy on the grid, the cost of everything will be reduced to HALF overnight. Nuclear plants take time to build, but I trust a builder like Trump to do the job over the cackling dragon they've put up against him.

The "Golden Man" is a testament to the cooperation and friendship between China and France. As representatives of two great civilizations, East and West, the friendship between China and France has a long history. 35 years ago, China and France began their cooperation in nuclear energy. Since then, the close cooperation between CGN and EDF has never ceased. From jointly building the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant, a handcrafted megawatt-class nuclear power plant in mainland China, to jointly building the EPR global reactor Taishan Nuclear Power Plant, and then to jointly developing three major nuclear power projects in the UK, the cooperation between the two sides has continued to deepen, yielding fruitful results in nuclear energy cooperation. Today, the nuclear energy cooperation between China and France has ushered in an unprecedented historical opportunity. CGN and EDF will join hands to embark on a new journey, creating a new chapter from the "Golden Man" to the "Golden Age".

Good luck trying to get more of Australia’s uranium Narendra Modi. Last time India requested Australia’s uranium, Albanese opposed then PM Gillard and spoke against exporting. In 2007, he said on a uranium mining motion “the light on the hill is not the glow of radiation from a nuclear waste dump”. And in the recent nuclear fear campaign he posted that scenic Aussie locations were “under threat” from nuclear power plants. Hopefully our Prime Minister wakes up to the fact Australia is one of the only advanced economies not investing in nuclear soon…
