#4Nuclear FTW.
Of course, it always loses in any HN conversation:

#5Does anyone know of interesting tours you can take of electricity production in Europe or energy infrastructure in general? I'm in The Netherlands, but would be willing to travel for it.
A real tour of a nuclear plant would be awesome (i.e. getting to hear / see the reactor), but tours of wind farms / turbines / dams etc. would also be great. Preferably in English.

#6Anyone knows what happened to the "ozone layer desctructed" scare out of 20 something years back? Did it die naturally or someone just had to pay someone for it to be silenced?

You can take a tour in the nuclear plant in Hungary (Paks). Also, the technical uni has a mini reactor and you can actually look at the glowing blue water (Cherenkov radiation).

I remember visiting a hydro plant in Wales. It was very interesting.

We took steps to stop damaging it, and it is gradually recovering.

It did not die naturally; it went away because of international action to reduce emissions that harm ozone layer.
Doing the same with CO2 is much harder.
