Recent Advances Demonstrate Why Nuclear Will Win

Recently, engineers have announced some relatively simple changes that will increase the safety and efficiency of nuclear plants.

For example, a group at MIT have found that by making Uranium fuel pellets hollow, like tubes it's possible to increase the fuel efficiency by 50%, says this post @ iNuclear.

One minor change, and we get a 50% pop. That's an incredible increase, compared to what is possible in other alt energy sources. This is an perfect example of why nuclear power is the long-term winner of the energy race, argues this post

  In the beginning, there were algae,
but there was no oil Then, from algae came oil.
Now, the algae are still there, but oil is fast depleting
In future, there will be no oil, but there will still be algae  
So, doesn't it make sense to explore if we can again get oil from algae?
This is what we try to do at Oilgae.com - explore the potential of getting oil from algae
