Alaska Spill
Cheers to The Times for the column “When Civilization Ran Aground Aboard the Oil Tanker in Alaska,” by Richard Nelson, Opinion, April 9.
His insight into the enduring consequences of the oil spill off the shores of his home state, Alaska, calls for a public outcry for alternative energy sources.
The Utah breakthrough in nuclear fusion stirs new hope in alternatives.
The sooner we end dependence on fossil fuels and energy produced by the hazardous and polluting nuclear process, the better will be the chance of survival on Earth.
Nelson climaxes his article by fixing the final blame not on the government, but on you and me. We are challenged to demand change!
