Oliver Stone once again taking on the most essential conversation of our time.
From yesterdays Guardian "Have his feelings about the Russian leader changed in the especially troubling years since? “I think Russia is doing a great job with nuclear energy,” he says after a moment’s thought." Especially the bombing of Zaporizhzhia! What a schmuck
@TheMcgojoh micheal Jackson still made good music
@@crazymage9636 Ya but he could have listened to Pink Floyd and left those kids alone.
@@TheMcgojoh agree 👍
I think Mr. Burns would be a much better Simpsons character for you... All sold on the nuclear death cult are we?
Just got to see this movie at my school. It was so cool. I agreed 1000% with its message. Nuclear is the answer. Most scientists and engineers agree :)
No the dont
Nuclear is still very dangerous
School?
Are they playing this to children?
@@scottspencer6899 University. I supposed I should have said college lmao
sponsored by whom ever profits from nuclear energy lol
reminds me of how texas intruments has been pushing thier calcs on kids in school for decades
As a scientist and an engineer, I agree
the lady says "we need to...provide energy for everyone. we need to move fast"
seems to me, most of the world's problems would be solved by slowing down. this focus on more more more faster faster faster is what got us in basically all problems we face, from societal to cultural to environmental.
When you run the numbers nuclear power is the only answer. If you're bad at math and can't think logically, you still come to the conclusion nuclear is part of the answer.
Clean affordable energy is freedom for the world's poor.
This movie is a must watch to me
A much needed addition to the conversation. Wind and solar is NOT the answer. Can't wait to see the movie!
nothing wrong with wind and solar, but they are not going to replace the massive amounts of energy we are used to or will demand in the future.
Wind and solar are part of the answer. Nuclear is another part, so is hydrogen. Why are we still living with 1900s tech as a power supply? Makes no sense we are smarter than this.
@@justgivemethetruth Wind and Solar cause visual pollution (Ugly). Not reliable source of energy in the amounts required.
There is no "one answer" - nuclear can supplement wind, solar, hydro...
I disagree with wind and solar. We’ve already destroyed the atmosphere. Let’s not destroy the surface too trying to mine the minerals or destroying large areas of land for solar panels.
We had this solution back in the 70's, but the country listened to folk singers and other entertainers. Now we are listening to the A+ students at the head of the class. Safe Clean and Dependable~ the power of the atom
It's time to bring nuclear power back into the conversation
For sure. But we shouldn’t abandon other alternatives.
@@shacktime Yes, all viable options need to be on the table. Nuclear is often automatically dismissed as unsafe when that's not the case. It needs to be quickly brought back into the conversation and hopefully this film helps.
@@jlcontarino It isn’t safe. It’s substantially less polluting than fossil fuels but when a reactor fails it does so spectacularly. The extreme volatility of the waste is also problematic. While strides have been made to reduce and repurpose it we still haven’t reached a net zero effect with it. I can drink a quart of crude and survive the experience but microscopic particles of nuclear waste are fatal. Nuclear’s vulnerability to catastrophic events and war time as well as terrorist threats is problematic as well. It’s also a serious problem in the event of a civilizational collapse.
@@shacktime All good points. Unfortunately, we are at a rather desperate point in time, with ever-growing energy needs. I believe the benefits of nuclear outweigh the risks, and a lot of the serious concerns can be mitigated with better technology. Nuclear should never be the only option, but rather part of an energy stream including wind, solar, water, and yes even fossil fuels for as limited time as possible.
@@jlcontarino Agreed. Anything that moves us away from fossil fuels and similarly incendiary technologies is a plus. Nuclear should be used as a transitionary technology while we keep working to improve and deploy the various sustainable alternatives.
Everybody should see this !
I had a deep conversation with a nuclear engineer 8 years ago and I came to this conclusion. I always wondered since then, why we weren’t going nuke…
I'm all for nuclear but you might want take a conversation with a nuclear engineer with a grain of salt - of course, they would be pushing nuclear.
because they cant earn so much money!!!
genuinely interested in the doc , however i'd be watching/listening to it to hear what will most likely be the last new score by Vangelis... hard to take in that i'll be hearing something new from him , close to a year since he passed :( .
Nuclear is amazing and the best source of energy (clean energy is you must). But why do we have to exchange one type of fear mongering for another type of fear mongering. Using fear to motivate is not the right answer for nuclear or the right answer for any argument. Nuclear is the best because it is the next step in the progression for sources of energy. It's the most energy dense, produces the least amount of waste, has the lowest rate of death per energy generated, and has had the least number of accidents compared to any industry. These are good arguments, they are logical, sound, and backed by evidence. Using fear just causes people act irrationally and make poor decisions the eventually hurt people. Read Michael Shellenberger's Apocalypse Never: Why Enviromental Alarmism Hurts us all best book for evidence on why nuclear is the best source of energy.
100% correct!
Oh, how convenient! A nuclear power plant could wipe out an entire continent, and almost did - at least twice - but that is fear mongering, so that shouldn't be used as an argument.
*_HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!_*
Chernobyl almost wiped out Europe, and Fukushima could have wiped out the whole of Japan. That is NOT fear mongering, those are FACTS. Boeing sold an airliner which took control from the pilots and crashed itself into the ground, after which Boeing blamed the pilots, and did nothing until it happened again, but you want to put American corporations in charge of technology which, if improperly managed, could wipe out whole continents? You're either incredibly naïve, or a complete moron, or both. Thanks for you suggestion, but it's a terrible one, so shove it where the sun don't shine...
Every audience has different backgrounds, concerns, and motivations. And on its face, it's likely this trailer is aimed at reaching the audience that is motivated by concerns over climate change impacts from GHG emissions, rather than the (also genuine and important) audience that's assessing the "progression for sources of energy."
Perhaps another trailer for this movie, and/or other videos, could have that different audience as its focus?
At last, at last...fear may finally be defeated...and here we go, meeting a promising futur. Now we need peace, above all, peace and security.
Yes GO NUCLEAR Full speed ahead, before its too late.
880 tons of highly radioactive debris in broken Fukushima reactors has given this a thumbs up.
Toxic junk behind doors many places in the world, and most of them killed a lot of people getting that way. Fukushima didn’t kill anybody from radiation. So yeah, that’s a thumbs up.
Great film - vitally important, very persuasive.
Stone has quite a history of aggressive embellishment. I trust him about as much as I trust Dinesh D’Souza (tho I definitely gravitate more towards Stone’s ideals while DD is a full blown bag-o-dicks… with herpes).
Nuclear still has a ways to go before it can be trusted not to go sideways and poison everything around it. I’m hopeful but we need to keep all the other alternatives in play as well.
That said, I’ll definitely take nuclear over fossil fuels.
😢ask the people of San Fernando’s west valley and simi valley … why ? The had a bigger nuclear accident in 1958 than 3 mile island …. Never heard about it ? You bet you haven’t cause Rocketdyne labs and Boeing labs concealed the media sources from the public . A unknown number of people died a few years after from cancer and the unaware stayed in their homes over time became ILL . To this day they have not properly cleaned up the area . So when Mr Stone says safe know that he’s either getting paid to say it or is a sorry investigator .
Vangelis
Important message. Especially for our German and Belgian friends!
We just switched it off in Germany so whats the point, We ramp up renewable like crazy to get out from fossile fuel/energy asap.
@@Thilo1971 But it was a great mistake to turn of our last reactors during an energy crisis.
@Thilo Kinkel and how's the power bills going for you? Free ?
We had to help out France last summer because their nuclears stopped working and their power grid would’ve collapsed. So yeah. Greetings from renewable Germany.
I just finished watching this and can completely get behind the message here. My first job was in nuclear and after getting it I loved the idea of nuclear power leading the future.
Navy?
Make this available to watch in the UK please 🙏🏼
When the Fukushima NPP disaster struck and my partner was devastated and said „ that’s it for nuclear power“ I played him in the Rolling stones song „time, time is on my side“. Later on he used this song to conclude his talks about NPP‘s. Looks like time moved even faster than I had anticipated.
Everything that we fear is what may save us...I am looking forward to watching
The herding of goats has caused the climate change we see today.
A great advertisement for the nuclear industry.
Exactly
been waiting for a documentary like thissss
About time this was made
Oliver and I are aligned on this one. Until we can unlock fusion we need a bridge - though far from ideal it’s our best option at this moment
What a trailer,!!!!......it's very true that the current generation thrives through navigating their own fears.
This is the world Service Pack which the empires are denying it as an enhancements towards better living standards but, would rather making it as fears.. 😊
Looks promising! Can't wait!
Coming up in Italy.
Oliver Stone, terrific director/screenwriter.
Bravo Mr. Stone!
Nuclear the future
Oh yeah finally 😍
We need a massive build up of nuclear power. I suspect a lot of the prognostications about climate change will be proven wrong, but we still need nuke plants. We need a massive build out of nuclear power.
climate change "prognostications" are not wrong, in fact all the numbers seem to indicate they were underestimated.
Yes... Climate change proponents have been running the left for many many decades... This will not change anytime soon... But increasing nuclear power production is a good thing. Would be great to see it... But It won't happen as this will divide the cupcake left and their energy ideology hate/fear of it. ... Give them a pandemic to fear... Or a mask to put on or vax to support or weak useless political leader to support... They'll sign up 💯
@@justgivemethetruth Can i see a live debate on the subject? Statistics are easily manipulated. No islands are underwater so... And anytime the anti-climate change experts invite the climate change experts ... your people don't show. I mean, as far as i've seen.
@@kalaoahaole
Nothing you've said there is correct. If you want facts just look for them. Hate to just out right call you a liar, but U R.
Incredible documentary that explores the realistic opportunities that nuclear energy has to offer! This was great!
You mean like the proliferation of even more high energy radioactive hot particles into the biosphere? Don't we have enough declining birth rates of all spicies, and spread of diseases like cancer world wide? I know they want you to think its all contained but.. Chernobyl, Fukushima, and Murphy's Law proves otherwise.
Would have preferred to here more of the Vangelis score
Wow what an eye opening movie that completely uncovers all the misinformation about nuclear energy. After watching it I asked my GF about nuclear energy and her first reaction was its dangerous. I asked why and she said because of nuclear bombs which his basically what so many others think even though its not based on science. Its time to wake up and move even faster to going nuclear.
she was afraid Rufus the demon core might show up. Rufus has been tamed for decades now and, besides, the fuel used in nuclear reactors isn't enriched enough to be used in a nuclear bomb.
I am looking forward to watching
If only this was a film on LFTR's and the amount of Thorium present in the spent coal.
Hopefully the film will point out that burning coal spreads around more radioactive particles than NPS's have ever done. Chernobyl excepted, maybe. We've been burning coal for centuries, wonder how much radiation has been spread by coal compared to Chernobyl. Also, hope they point out that a standard NPS expended fuel can be used in fast neutron power plant. I worked on the proposal to turn our 33 metric TONS of excess Pu into fuel for McGuire and Catawba plants but that has been slowed or stopped (politics??).
Has someone watched this film and knows if it talks about thorium as a viable option?
Nuscale power👍
Attended a screening last night and I was blow away by this information. This story of greed and corruption is the sole reason climate change is an impending issue. The audience with me was exactly the people that needed to hear it!
The nuclear death cults war on carbon, is a war on you... carbon based life form.
The challenge is where to put nuclear plants. Do you want to live next to one? They need vast amounts of water for cooling and are often placed on the coastline which is susceptible to rising sea levels and storms.
I'm just interested in Vangelis's music score.
me too
NuScale has an incredibly safe design.
The "new" nuclear promises to be more efficient, cheaper, smaller scale, and able to be placed where needed whether temporary or permanent generating stations. SMR's are almost here and with the migration to electric cars, trucks, busses, planes, and etc. solves some of the problems of long distance distribution.
"In general, we need to move faster." Noooh, in general we need to move slower. Seeing the documentary tonight. Curious to see, if it changes my mind...
We can't wait any longer, but a movie can be made...XD
Best ad for uranium stocks that i've seen so far.
Always time for well produced visuals, commentary, and awareness --- surplanting the residue of two nuclear deployments (#bombs) and enumerable billion$ spent thereafter to support egos and political systems -- still underway -- is likely a generational challenge ... perhaps with a successful light at the end of a very dark tunnel. #good_communication
Seriously Oliver Stone? Nuclear energy? I'm sure, even if you have a perfect clean energy source, we can not just continue to spend more and more. We have to cut down consumption. You! and me and everybody. And you know what? It's easy, because practicing renunciation seems unsexy but nevertheless is a safe way to happiness : )
We need nuclear power now
vangelis forever 🎹🎹🎹🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
When you think about it solar panels depend on the sun's light to produce energy. And what is the sun made out of? Nuclear Fusion. We've already got the technology guys and all the issues of the past has already been addressed with newer reactor technologies.
The funny thing when they keep talking about SMR reactors. The Navy has been using SMR for decades. Every nuclear reactor in a Navy Ships or Submarines is a SMR.
Yes! Nuclear energy is key to getting us to net zero.
You can not get to NET ZERO, it's impossible.
Solo vine aqui para escuchar la música de Vangelis !!!
With today’s technology nuclear power is a beautiful thing. Fukushima was 70s technology plus human error. Chernobyl was the Soviet Union who cared little for safety. Thousands of small reactors and our problems are solved
Yah, really glad OS and crew made this film. As a naturalist, I have always believed in the clean power and potential of nuclear energy. Just like anything, it has to be used in responsible ways. But it may be our only real hope for cars that hover, a lower impact future, and a reasonable way for us to meet our energy demands now and in the future. We better get investing. Period.
Everyone always points to William Randolph hurst as being the greatest influence on steering the zeitgeist with his campaign against hemp via demonizing marijuana but- the coal/fossil fuel industries did way better demonizing nuclear power.
Embrace nuclear... the power of the sun at our fingertips.
Sierra Club MN cites "safety, radioactive waste storage" as the main reasons to oppose nuclear: it is too safe, and does not emit waste into the natural environment.
This is only way 💯
👍👍👍
Nükleer enerji vazgeçilmez. 👍
Cutting carbon will be devestating.
If the level of carbon in the atmosphere drops any further towards 200ppm plant life stops being able to grow.
Plants grow best at 800 to 1200ppm so we could increase atmospheric carbon from the current 400ppm and see a incredible boost to global vegetation.
This means forest grow better, ocean vegetation grows better, crops which support our livestock and wildlife grows better and our crop production will increase.
Nuclear power is very efficient and dosent take up much space, which is better than having thousands of acres in wind or solar farms.
That is factually wrong, for a variety of reasons
1- The numbers change (drasticly) for each plant...
2- Those numbers are averages, and aply in greenhouses, controled enviroments with ideal sunlight, heat, water, temperature, humidity etc. If any of these factors is not ideal (wich in nature it isn't) then hose numbers change
3- Higher CO2 levels generally cause less nutrient intake
4- Nobody wants to "cut" carbon, but to cut carbon emissions. Our current species and ecossystems evolved at 230-300ppm of CO2, THATS their ideal, thats what they're adapted to
5- The "boost in vegetation" is old news, the greening effect stopped and largely reversed since then
6- You're forgetting how the increased CO2 cause negative consequences to plant growth like increased water stress
7- They also can cause overgrowth
8- Increased CO2 means decreased evapotranspiration, wich can be really bad for some ecossystems that depend on that
Please inform yourself on complex topics, don't be fooled by people giving you the "true answers that they wants you to know" and instead treat complex topics as COMPLEX and study them before making any conclusions
Agree with the nuclear premise. Disagree about the harmful effects of fossil fuels. Yes, earth has warmed but actually benefitted in many ways from the increase in carbon dioxide.
What will the rest of the world do that does not have nuclear energy, how will they be able to sustain themselves?
A start, but follow the White Rabbit. "Dr. Patrick Moore: Greenpeace." You will learn how deep the rabbit hole goes. 😉
I could not agree more. We, as a human race, must increase our access to abundant and inexpensive energy.
It will take over 10 years just to build one new nuke plant.
We don't have 10 years.
Don't worry. By that time, safe, clean, cheap solar and wind will have grown exponentially and saved us.
I want a nuclear car and computer
The statements about climate change and having to cut fossil fuel use are completely false. That is his schtick to promote nuclear power. I wish he were honest, and just pointed out how much more efficient and sustainable and safe nuclear is without using false fear mongering.
LOL... seems to me that you don't need any more nuclear propaganda, you're all sold on that. Try Oliver Stone former piece done for the Vlademir Putin regime... you can always get yourself indoctorinated on that.
I want to buy this, I don't want to go into theaters even now.
Also, if Oliver Stone ( who I amazing and the best documentary maker and American out there today ) does not want this to be scary ... he should not talk in those slow darkened tones of voice. It is so easy for people to attack nuclear ... I am not sure any pro-nuclear message can get across.
Here's hoping for the best!
Why don't you want to go to the theater _(then you'll have to wait)_ and what's wrong with Stone's voice?
Chernobyl ran the other 3 reactors at the plant incident free for many years after the accident. It can be made safer. And it wouldn’t kill the O&G industry. So much more comes from oil than just fuel and motor oil. What you are reading right now has oil producers in it. Natural gas is safe yet that is feared too because of the false narrative around fracking. If we could switch to mostly nuclear for our electric grid, you can have all the damn electric cars you want. But add them to the current grid? You are already seeing issues. I live 20 miles from a nuclear plant, and I didn’t even know it was there until a couple years ago. I don’t feel threatened. It’s been there since I was a kid.
Looks Great !! Eventually, in the future, our economy and a large part of it will have to be based on "Restoring the Balance or Ecosystem." For example, Carbon Capturing Machines will have to be used to drain the atmosphere of all the CO2.
We don't have any carbon capturing machines that work economically at scale. What DAC we have = moral hazard. If we "drain" the atmosphere of CO2, the planet's average surface temperature would be below freezing, so let's not do that. But we _do_ need to reduce carbon gas emissions and let the ocean and land (including the terrestrial biosphere) soak up the extra CO2. The trouble is we now have to do this very quickly. Nuclear electricity generation is going to be needed. See also: _Pandora's_ _Promise_
On this:
>>>>>>>For example, Carbon Capturing Machines will have to be used to drain the atmosphere of all the CO2.
Any machine to separate CO2 from the atmosphere will necessarily require considerable amounts of electricity to operate, and electricity will be in short supply with current trends for both electrification and for low productivity, weather-related renewable energy.
We have them already.
And we gotta plant more of them.
That, combined with a massive drop in fishing to restore the greatest carbon capture we have and a switch to nuke is the best path forward.
Youre right but the problem wont be co2 but destroying ecosystems because of solar panels.
You need land for solar panels whether that be for solar farms or rooftop solar. Trees need to be cut down for solar farms or to build towns/suburbs for rooftop solar. The more spread out you are the more land you need to produce enough energy and its an endless cycle.
Cutting trees downs increases the spread of diseases like malaria because of reduced biodiversity and reduced biodiversity has other impacts (see wolves and Yellowstone). Fewer trees means more flooding because theres less absorbing the water as it rains. Floods could lead to crop losses which means famine, poverty and increased ghg (lost crops are wasted food which creates ghg). Floods can lead to poisoning rivers because with the extra water more ground pollution gets swept into rivers.
Solar panels are ewaste and can leach toxic metals into ground water which could lead to kidney problems, cancer and other diseases.
By 2050 theres predicted to be 78 million tons of waste from solar panels. It would take 19 yrs for Japan to reprocess 10k tons of solar panels. Over the past 50 yrs from around the world there's only 250k tons of nuclear waste and all of it can be stored in 1-2 football stadiums. Even if nuclear waste remains untouched its 100% safely stored in concrete containers and hasnt leached into the environment.
Youll reduce co2 more with nuclear energy because it requires less land (even if you have large exclusion zones those can be literal forests of trees that absorb co2) which means you can plant more trees.
The fossil fuel corporations also own the nuclear plants. It’ll be a long long time before nuclear energy replaces fossil.
Not exacly true
If Oliver Stone really gave a shit he'd make this documentary free for everyone to see.
I wrote my senior thesis on converting to nuclear energy to combat climate change. I am all for it, especially with fusion energy.
thorium pebble bed has advantages
Our military has been successfully using nuclear energy for many years... so you have to wonder who has been behind suppressing this only viable option to clean and abundant energy...
Build thorium nuclear power plants.
Nuclear fusion, yes. Nuclear fission, no.
Imagine the possibilities... houses would be powered by small nuclear reactors with a 100 year guarantee
I don't know what the answer is, but Oliver is a rare boomer that always keeps thinking and open to ideas. Peace
The boomers and those before them are responsible for virtually ALL the ideas.
And they produced more positive change and had more of an open mind than our generation.
We really haven't achieved much yet...what problems have we even made progress on?
vangelis
it's too late...I wish it wasn't but it's too late...feed the starving...Om mani padme hung hri...
I say we should limit the population by only allowing parents to have two children to replace themselves. Reducing population would reduce our need for so much natural resources.
And wind
Once I watched The Putin Interviews, I became a fan of Oliver Stone's documentary work.
Stone's documentary series, Untold History of the United States, is a masterpiece.

I have all my money in uranium.
I hope i am right in 5 years.
Thorium is even better than Uranium
where to see, or buy,besides cinemas? I want this on CD by Vangelis and bluray!!!!
Climate doomer with the correct answer. Fine.
Yep, he's solving a completely different problem than he thinks but that's OK. The 3 billion people who live in energy poverty today will power themselves into prosperity with coal unless there is something just as reliable and cheaper. Burning that much coal in power plants without the expensive scrubbers generates huge amounts of real pollution, nuclear would prevent that.
@@chapter4travels pollution. noun. "the presence in or introduction into the environment of a substance which has harmful or poisonous effects." hth.
@@xchopp As opposed to co2, a fake pollution.
Exactly. 💯
Looks like Al Gores film😉
JRE sent me here
Good about nuclear, lies about CO2
In what respect?
@@xchopp Nuclear was designed to burn all it's own waste for one and 2, CO2 is not harmful but more should be generated so the plants and oceans can produce more O2 and food. As proven in our past of high levels of CO2 and we are all here not destroyed by some made up political policy meant to control the world actions. By the way CO2 is less than.01% of the atmosphere where as h2o is 100's of times greater and also a green house gas, yet those idiots are not drying to dry up the atmosphere
My reaction exactly. I'm really disappointed to see Stone participating CO2 lies. Ruins this document completely even I'm pro nuclear.
They are aware that nuclear power is the technology fix to many problems. The fact that nuclear power, per se, is so good, is why [Sierra Club - Democrats - and others] are opposed.
Yes, nuclear power is sooo good... for nuttin' honey!
Oliver Stone lied in Nixon and the Kennedy movie. How do I know that he is presenting facts in this movie?
This is a documentary. Not a feature film. And why would you trust anyone? Check whatever research is presented. Not hard.
Nuclear waste ain’t shit with new technology
The powers that be want this one locked up for ever. They gave "Green Tech" to sell us.
