Nuke Power

 Probably one of the more interesting news stories of the past six months popped up today via N-TV (German commercial news).  The EU says it will flip a rule into play for 2022....to approve natural gas and nuclear power as 'climate-friendly' (with  conditions).

Shocking for the Germans?  For the Green Party, it creates a massive problem.

Will new nuke plants get permission to be built?  Well....I'll say this....NO current situation looks great for getting German approval, but if this rises up to the EU level, they will grant the license.  I would expect a minimum of ten years of court action to delay even the start of construction but it will eventually fall into place.

Dismantling one of Merkel's 'golden' promises?  Yeah....you could make that assessment.
