I agree. Nuclear power plants are necessary. I am aware of the case with Mansanto and the way our food is treated.
This peace of art is more about visual impact than strictly a message, but you know everything has a good and a bad side.
Thank you for the attention

What Brent says is true. I am a design drafter and I have worked on several of these hyperbolic cooling towers. There is a lot of very interesting science behind these designs to make them safe and efficient. That "stuff" is steam.. In fact is is the cleanest water you will ever find on earth... Just very hot. Furthermore, there are so many refuglations on nuclear power that it is unlikely that the power platitude itself is at fault for a meltdown. The fault can be found as a lack of funding allowed by the state and federal govenrments to the plant to make repairs as materials age.

That's right.
As Brent said, the real threats are not the ones that you see, but the ones that you don't.

This is very good and provokes some contemplation. Just curious, what is your opinion on alternative energy sources and nuclear energy? Because this piece can be interpreted in multiple ways actually.

Thank you!
I'm all about the alternative energy, but the truth is that nuclear energy is necessary evil. There are too many people and it is impossible to supply electricity to everyone with just wind, sun and water power solutions.

What do you think the trucks and machinery that mine and transport uranium burn as a fuel source? They burn fossil fuels. Nuclear power is not an alternative energy source, it depends on mainstream ones for its very existence.

This can be said about any power source and it's a red herring in my opinion. The trucks that transport wind power stations also use fossil fuels, and the factories that produce the parts partly use fossil fuels as well (the power grid). It will take some time but in time we will have transportation for these things that run on "green" alternatives. Ideally we'll decommission all fission and fusion plants in the future and rely entirely on completely safe alternatives, currently that's not an option due to their power and cost inefficiency.

True, it is necessary, but how much evil it is in comparison to the other available energy sources is arguable. Even the alternative, so-called "green" sources, are far not as "clean" and harmless as proclaimed. While nuclear power has the huge problem of its radioactive waste, just a couple nuclear plants can supply enough energy for millions of people and a lot of industry. Meanwhile the huge solar and wind parks, or dam lakes, etc., can disrupt the ecosystems on vast territories. They are too ineffective.
I'm not entirely against them, but their function can only be complementary to another source, imho.

Малко със закъснение видях, че си от България. Хубаво е да видя българско произведение на страниците с избраните творби. Поздравления за DD!
Иначе истинското решение е термоядрената енергия.
