In our Tech Talks held Tuesday 12th March we were brought up to date on the possibility of Nuclear Energy and the development of Nuclear Power Packs. Portable Nuclear Power is an option, but it will take an immense amount of political will and it will be expensive. But if achieved it will not produce any Carbon Dioxide.
