[GPSCC-chat] Climate Change, Thorium, on Science Friday

[Gerry Gras]

FYI,

Yesterday on Science Friday (NPR) they discussed,
among other things, climate change, and thorium reactors.

The climate change segment was mostly about a recent
poll of Americans, which essentially shows growing
awareness (and concern?).  FWIW, they did use the
term "connect the dots".

The thorium segment was a "he said, she said" discussion,
so of course inconclusive, but did bring up some aspects
I had not heard before.
