Collapsing Cooling Towers // Ecotricity

- Green electricity didn't exist in the world back in 1996. When we offered it for the first time, we became not just Britain’s but the world’s first green electricity company - and we kick-started the now global green electricity movement. Our mission was and remains to change the way electricity is made and used in Britain.
We chose this focus because conventional electricity is responsible for 30% of Britain’s carbon emissions - it’s our biggest single source as a nation, and therefore the biggest single thing we can change.

It's water vapor, not smoke. Chill out.
You know them wind mills are destorying farm ground out in the country. The farmers need the money not the electric companies.
I'd like to find out how to stop you spreading anti-nuclear nonsense and popularizing space filling bird shredders that still require a backup power plant. It's organizations like yours that make electricity more expensive and has Germany building MORE coal power plants because they demolish their nuclear ones, hope you're happy about that.
Nuclear is the only option for an electricity grid that's carbon neutral and so called green organizations should popularize it instead of smearing it
please help me! I can't find the name of the music in this video :

Considering the amount of death per year caused by nuclear reactors are 1/1.000.000 than that of coal and fossil fuel, the nuclear power is a much better alternative by budget per power.

Nuclear produces the most and worst kind of waste, what are you on about?
@@TheDankEngineer It doesn't matter, any marketing guy working on this ad should obviously have known that that's what 95% of people will associate with cooling towers, so whatever the actual footage is of, the message is still "nuclear bad" regardless.

@@functionatthejunction
"Nuclear produces the most and worst kind of waste, what are you on about?"
A: It does not produce the most waste. It turns out all the material dumped into our atmosphere by fossil power plants is actually higher in volume. All the waste the U.S. has created in the past 60 years can be put into an area the size of a football field
B: It doesn't produce the worst kind of waste. Less than 3% of spent fuel is both long-lasting and dangerous. The rest will either decay in a few decades or is just not that dangerous.
@@functionatthejunction
TL: DR Nuclear waste isn't that bad, it's very compact.

Nuclear electricity has nothing to do with carbon emissions tho
It has. It helps mitigate it's release.
@@nilnull5457 interesting! Would you prefer mitigation of less emissions (none produced by nuclear ofc) or our current dependence on fossil fuels?
Nuclear power has a lot of bad things about it, but the advantage is that responsible control can mitigate or completely eliminate them. But only very wealthy, money centered people have the capital to own and operate them in the first place, and they have a long history of causing death and suffering in exchange for saving money on dumping fees and other such things. The local wildlife can also be ruined if the water source for the cooling was natural. To make sure that everything is going well and the surrounding populace isn't slowly being irradiated to an early death, a ginormous amount of overlapping and redundant oversight is required. That and other things make nuclear fission power both extremely slow to build and extremely expensive. By the time all the reactors were built it would be long past too long to halt climate change.
@@CoffeeSnep it's not slow to build, it's just no one's in a rush to build it now, just look up the speed at which nuclear reactors were built in the 50s the key difference was the arms race for H bombs.

The end here where 4 cooling towers are downed really sums it up. ~4000 MW of power generation (assuming nuclear) are replaced by ~3 MW of power generation. So you need like 1000 wind turbines to replace what's being removed.
So... just put up 1000 wind turbines, where is the problem? Not enough space for 1000 wind turbines in the UK?
@@joachimb5721Show that in your videos then.

Nuclear is better nowadays anyway
that is true that is a fact and a half
Nuclear energy is way cleaner nowadays. It’s is just a better way of getting energy.
with "green energy" the enviornment is still in pain because you have to dispose of the solarpanels by burning the solar panels that puts the enviornment in MORE PAIN. And the machines that it takes to build the wind generators run on you guessed it DIESEL and maybe deisel exhaust fluid which makes the deisel exhaust less black and gray. I think deisel exhaust fluid is worse that diesel it self.
@@jacwilson2578 I believe power plants also tend to wrap in a water purification plant in with or next to the power plant. Pretty much all of the exhaust is clean, I’m not sure about nuclear waste though. I will have to read some about that, it probably isn’t as bad as depicted in something like the Simpson’s. It still may be a problem though.

I love how they did their job so well in this campaign that it actually makes you hate the wind turbines at the end. An entire video of peaceful, cute-faced towers, living their lives, getting brutally killed, as you watch them horrified knowing they are going to die, some desperately trying to save their friends. Then, after all of this violence, fear, tears, the turbines come out, victorious, emerging from the bodies of the dead, growing, dependent on destruction of someone else for their life, like scavengers, cold, clean, faceless, emotionless, in contrast to the towers we previously saw, cheerful, happy, drinking tea, having friends, showing compassion to their companions. It legit made me want to tear these god damn windmills down and I was genuinely angry when I saw them popping up.
This ad is so completely failed, delivers a message so radically opposed to what it should be that it actually made me think it was some anti wind turbines campaign or something like that. Truly, a bunch of incompetent idiots, the only message that I got from this ad is that, no matter what subject they try to touch, the ecologists systematically turn out to be incredibly incompetent and counter productive.
And I personally believe it matches their beliefs pretty well (like tearing down nuclear plants despite being the cheapest and one of the least polluting ways to produce mass amounts of energy without emitting carbon dioxyde, which could be a great asset we could use while perfecting or finding long term solutions).
In all fairness, this was an ad against coal plants which also use cooling towers. But yes, as an ad it failed spectacularly.
As someone who works in the solar industry, I must agree with you on your opinion that wind turbines do indeed sucks, and nuclear power is the bees knees.

Nuclear power is one of the most efficient, clean, renewable energy sources in the world. Combined with hydroelectric, wind, and solar, those 4 sources could power the world.
Completely due away with fuel combusting plants of all types.
And developments even over the past decade have made them WAY safer.
We should be pushing campaigns to build more nuclear power plants or upgrade existing ones. Due away with coal fired plants.
Facts. Dude, I live in an area primarily powered by nuclear and hydroelectric, some natural gas, a very tiny amount of wind, and all the solar I've seen is for street lights or on private housing roofs. My energy bill for my apartment, kept at 60F during this past summer - which reached 115F, was a mere $42/mo. Winter energy bills are $30/mo. Amazing how fast people get onboard for nuclear when they see an energy bill that low. My friend back where I used to live now hates me, because he's still paying something like $120/mo.

Nuclear alone could power the world. Wind and solar are inefficient, unreliable and dumb. Nuclear and natural gas is the way to go.
You guys can't seriously think wind power can replace nuclear power, right?
Bon
Well, there's also solar, geothermal, water power. But you don't care, right?
SCWfan06 yeah there is, but none of which could create a fraction of the power that fossile fuels and nuclear could create. As much as we want to think there is a renewable energy source that could power the world, there isn't.
You need to understand that the technology for renewables will improve its efficiency overtime. Solar can 100% support the planet like it 99% of the ecosystems. Nuclear is actually pretty clean energy though so I feel people need to be more informed on that one since 90% of the fuel can be reprocessed and reused. Fossil fuels is something that needs to be done away with because it actually causes lots of pollution.
Bon it is really important to start focusing on renewable energy sources since fossil fuels are running out in near future. Can't do much with nuclear plants without uranium.
Caius Juvonen I really don't want to start a whole argument so I'm just going to say that it is my opinion that we shouldn't say that solar power can support us because it cannot. There is still 10.5 million metric tons of undiscovered uranium in the earths crust, and once we discover fusion we will be cranking out energy til our heart's content
Nuclear energy is the cleanest and best for the environment

Nope. And they will never pay for themselves in their operational life.

By the way wind power if aids for the environment compared to nuclear power and takes up much more space for much more money at higher environmental damage. The only redeeming quality is that they're lower risk.

Uhhh...no. It takes up just as much space and it doesn't harm the environment that much. Wind power does more damage by killing birds, bats, and more. Many say that the sound the windmill makes actually causes people who live near them to commit suicide

@@AClRCLEOFLlGHT well, yes, that's just basic physics.
regardless of that, an entire farm of these things can't compare to the output of a reactor - a big deal for many countries that don't have a lot of room at their disposal. and with thorium reactors around the corner, even nuclear waste (the only real downside to nuclear energy, the few accidents that happened all significantly improved the safety of the reactors such that meltdowns practically shouldn't happen if the powerplant isn't stupidly designed) isn't going to be much of a problem as it's got a very short half life compared to uranium and the "spent" uranium can be used in them, too.
Its sad but true. So much money has been wasted on wind turbines only to find out its not reliable or cost effective.
@jungmin lim Look, I'm not at all opposed to trying new idea like this. But once we know they don't generally generate enough power to pay for their own construction its time to stop beating a dead horse and keep looking.
@jungmin lim The ones near me are nearly silent. When you are less than 100 yards away you can hear a bit of a woosh sound. That's all. What kind of noises are you hearing complaints about?
Ad: "Conventional electricity, and we imply that nuclear counts as one, counts as 30% of Britain's carbon emission. Time to move on from these and go for wind farms and solar panels!"

@@krashd they destroyed thermo nuclear cooling towers. Their message is to get rid of energy that creates too much greenhouse gasses. I think it was clear what they were saying
@@evilbadger34 No, they just destroyed cooling towers, which are used in most coal, gas and oil power stations in order to turn steam back into water ready to be fed back into the boilers.
Exactly
@@evilbadger34 It's difficult to say for certain without a thorough shot of the surrounding area, but I don't think any of these were nuclear cooling towers. Mainly because I didn't see any reactor housing facilities, and those would be HUGE! No, these are most likely cooling towers from coal power plants.

jhfridhem tjank u thorium power IS the future period
(Until we assemble a dyson swarm)
madscientistshusta thorium isn't the power source of the future. Development for thorium reactors has been happening since the 50s. Even after spending billions of dollars fruitlessly, and generating tons of waste, We still have billions of more dollars to go to even create the proper equipment for thorium reaction. Although thorium sounds like the "'magic green bullet" There are a lot of issues with thorium that prevent its from being the commercially viable option, ranging from cost, all the way to the reactor creating more dangerous waste than a uranium reactor, since a thorium reactions byproduct creates one of the most dangerous gamma emitting material. Another issue, and I know it's just related to war hungry nations, but thorium does not product any plutonium, or radioactive weapon material. Which means the likeliness of it being backed by any of the major nations more than it already has is a pretty low chance. I hope we find a new power source, but don't be to quick to believe the nuclear lobby, they are just as persuasive, powerful, and destructive as the coal companies when they were first opened.

This is one of the reasons why we have such high energy bills now. And in the future, we will look at the wind turbines with their used blades that lie stacked in at the land fill site and see that they were not so environmentally friendly either. Nuclear power is the way forward and more research into nuclear fussion.
And realize the "cost" of the not so green solar panels!

Nuclear power reactors are more efficient, clean, and safe (when the safety protocols are properly maintained).

@@JameyMcQueen Chernobyl didn't follow basic safety standards, ignored warnings, and only partially implemented emergency backups in case of a failure they were actively creating.
Nuclear energy is legitimately more efficient than other green energy sources, and is the most likely Candidate for replacing fossil fuels. Sam o' Nella has a great short video on the subject.

Are you trying to imply the 3 windmills at the end produce anywhere near the amount of power of a nuclear reactor? Nuclear energy is a more then viable source of power it has no carbon emissions and there are ways to recycle spent nuclear fuel. there are even more advancements in using thorium reactors. If anything we will just eventually move to fusion reactors instead of fission.
Ask the people of Fukushima how happy they are that they had this "clean" electricity. Radioactive waste radiates for hundred of years, no human can imagine what problems it will cause for the next few generations. Fusion is something very different than fission, so you can't compare that.
Fukushima was at the fault of the tsunami it wiped out all of its backups it was perfectly fine on its own and could have been built to be resistant if they figured that would have ever been a problem. Why don't you ask the people in France how happy they are, They get 75% of there electricity from nuclear power and its working out great for them.
CriticalEnmity
And we in Germany are so happy that the French are bringing their waste over to our nation. Fukushima proved that natural desasters can wipe out all the backups, Tchernobyl showed that people can make wrong decisions. The conclusion: Mankind has to deal with it for centuries. Even tho it is highly unlikely that something happens, but IF something goes wrong in Germany, roughly 10% of the nation is then contamined. It is just not worth it.
Wind turbines are EXTREMELY high maintenance and shred birds. Many wind turbines actually catch on fire.on a regular basis.

You need a citation in order to know or look up how many birds they shred to pieces? They are loud as hell talk up huge amounts of space for a decent farm and only generate about 1% of energy in the usa.
