Nuclear Energy
Hi,
I've been a supporter of nuclear energy, off and on, since I was a kid (off and on because I've changed my mind a few times based on what I've been told about the pros and cons).
Currently, I'm for it, but I've been told that uranium extraction in Australia is directly at odds with indigenous interests, but the explanation was lacking details.
Long story short, all the uranium is under sacred sites.
I want to ask if that's entirely/partially true, if there'sa different issue at play, if issues are possible to work around or not, if there's a way to advocate for First Nation people to be in control of and reap the benefits of it, and basically anything else I can learn about indigenous perspectives on the issue.
[For transparency, I'm 1st Gen Italian Australian, a socialist, and was speaking with (predominantly) other white socialists on the issue.
Didn't feel right taking their word on it without reaching out, and I didn't want to bother Elder Robbie, here in Naarm.]
