Iran busts 'spy pigeons' near nuclear site

Oct 20 05:11 AM US/Eastern

Security forces in Natanz have arrested two suspected "spy pigeons" near Iran's controversial uranium enrichment facility, the reformist Etemad Melli newspaper reported on Monday.

One of the pigeons was caught near a rose water production plant in the city of Kashan in Isfahan province, the report cited an unnamed informed source as saying, adding that some metal rings and invisible strings were attached to the bird.

"Early this month, a black pigeon was caught bearing a blue-coated metal ring, with invisible strings," the source was quoted as saying of the second pigeon.

The source gave no further description of the pigeons, neither their current status nor what their fate will be.

6. Bullshit. The so called "renewable" industry - which is an industry but not renewable
has zero forms of energy - other than hydroelectric and burning shit - that have produced even an exajoule of energy.

If we have more of the biofuels game - which is basically strip mining soils and rain forests - entire continents will collapse.

The world's largest, by far form of climate change free energy is nuclear energy, which is the cleanest, safest and most reliable of all climate change gas free forms of energy, by far.

Ignorance kills.

7. I'm sorry but without heavy subsidies - fission isn't economically feasible
Safety, pollution, and fuel acquisition aside very few reactors are being built because they're very expensive.

There are other ways to get biofuels beside growing corn/sugar.

A combination of renewables will have to be used, and we will have to massively cut consumption, but it can be done!
