Boiling Fish

commondreams has this up on Illinois nuke plants dumping 100 degree water into the rivers and waterways…in essence, boiling the fish.  The cavalier attitude is typical–it’s just a couple of fish, what are you so keyed up about?

The comments section has some thoughtful comments–forcing them to reuse the heated water, forcing them to power down.  And as stated, they’re not in the business to power down–that’s cutting into their profits.  And we all know that utility companies will not do the conscientious thing like actually taking into account the environmental damage they may be causing.

Good Grief.
