Just out of curiosity - how many of you recycle? Compost? Those of you in other countries: are these things common practice?
When I visit friends in Canada they live in a town that requires composting.
I'm a diligent recycler.

Everything you're able to, or just the basics - plastic water bottles and soda cans?
No composting?

California is going to shut down its last nuclear power plant in 9 years or so. The plan is to replace it with renewable energy sources. Im guessing the reality is some portion will be taken up by fossil fuels in neighboring states or Mexico.

I think we're talking about the same thing, because the show did mention the advances in China. Liquid fuel, with an automatic cooling system? Is that like thorium? I said sodium because this tech is apparently an extension of tech from like 50 years ago that was based on the cooking properties of sodium and potassium.
Molten Salt Reactors? Yup. This is
the bridge technology for us to use (especially to handle population increases in Africa) while we develop real renewables.
