Nuclear Power?

... for one year... Take all the leftover ashes from that coal and get the uranium from it, you can power the same city for 100 years. Not sure if the scaling is exact, but the point is if you want to save the world for your children--don't have children. Population growth is driving this not people ...

... by cryo-TEM, to scale with the length of the hydrophobic chain (N) of the copolymer as N^0.61, which is close to the strong segregation limit scaling. By fluorescence video imaging of worm dynamics, we also show that the persistence length (lp) of worm-like micelles scales as~ d^2.8, consistent ...
