A weather vaned in Cornwall, England shows what life was like before fossil fuels.
Charles Till led a team of thousands of scientists, engineers and technicians in the 1980s up to 1994 in the successful development of one of the world's greatest technologies for producing electricity only to have the project stopped by President Clinton and behind the scenes anti-nuclear activists, non-profits, industry and the government. This is surely one of the greatest reversals ever in modern civilisation. China, Russia and other countries are NOT following the example set by President Clinton and they will be far better for it.
