How anger at the rollout of renewables is being hijacked by a new pro-nuclear network (www.theguardian.com)

All the “anger at the rollout of renewables” is just Astroturf by the fossil fuel industry.

If you do 30 seconds of research into the “No Windfarms”, “No Pylons” and “No Solar Farms” movements, you will discover that they are all run by a handful of marketing firms associated with the Fracking Industry.

There is no “anger at renewables”.

Yeah but it's better if they can distract you by blaming it on nuclear.

Fracking wrecks the water table for everyone. It should be banned nationwide
