I heard a really old environmental salty* on NPR years ago. He had had a turnaround and supported what I thought was old tunes from Yucca mountain. The next generation of reactors were safe he said.

Is that this?

* I don’t remember his name but he was described as one of the old old guards of the environment movement.
