[NukeNet] Query Re NPPs: Nobel Prize Winning IPCC Climate Catastrophe "Very Unlikely" To Be Avoided

[Bill Smirnow]

     Is anyone here aware of  someone and/or instition[s] having looked into
the effects of massive climate change, especially of sea level rise
effecting commercial nukes? So many of them are located along and close to
coast lines. How serious is the possibility of MANY meltdowns and boiloffs
around the country and world?

    Then there's the fact that wars may break out in which nuclear power
facilities may be deliberately and accidently hit with even more
catastrophic results resulting? Does anyone know anything?

IPCC: "Too Late" To Avoid Dangerous Change
'Too late to avoid global warming,' say scientists
The Independent (U.K.), Sept. 19, 2007
A rise of two degrees centigrade in global temperatures -- the point
considered to be the threshold for catastrophic climate change which will
expose millions to drought, hunger and flooding -- is now "very unlikely" to
be avoided, the world's leading climate scientists said yesterday.

The latest study from the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC) put the inevitability of drastic global warming in the
starkest terms yet, stating that major impacts on parts of the world -- in
particular Africa, Asian river deltas, low-lying islands and the Arctic -- 
are unavoidable and the focus must be on adapting life to survive the most
devastating changes.
