April 19, 2012
In our subscriber hour, we discuss game changing events such as nuclear disasters, EMPs, and solar storms. We're due for a solar maximum at the end of 2012. If a super solar storm event occurs, what can we expect and how should we prepare? Mat tells us how society's technology would be affected and mentions new technologies that can protect our transformers from a solar storm. Mat details the potential problems that could happen at nuclear plants surrounding sudden disaster. Then, we'll discuss EMPs and the impact on our infrastructures. Stein mentions an interesting EMP-optimized weapon developed by Russia and China. Later, we talk about what happens to the nuclear waste after we've made the shift into cleaner technologies.
