The Rise and Fall of #NuScale: a nuclear cautionary tale
Kelly Campbell
October 29, 2024"A decade ago, NuScale, the Oregon-based small modular nuclear company born at Oregon State University, was on a roll. Promising a new era of nuclear reactors that were cheaper, easier to build and safer, their Star Wars-inspired artist renditions of a yet to be built reactor gleamed like a magic bullet.
"As of last year, NuScale was the furthest along of any reactor design in obtaining Nuclear Regulatory Commission licensing and was planning to build the first small modular nuclear reactor in the United States. Its plan was to build it in Idaho to serve energy to a consortium of small public utility districts in Utah and elsewhere, known as #UAMPS.
"This home-grown Oregon company was lauded in local and national media. According to project backers, a high-tech solution to climate change was on the horizon, and an Oregon company was leading the way. It seemed almost too good to be true.
"And it was.
"Turns out, NuScale was a #HouseOfCards. The UAMPS project’s price tag more than doubled and the timeline was pushed back repeatedly until it was seven years behind schedule. Finally, UAMPS saw the writing on the wall and wisely backed out in November, 2023.
"After losing their customer, NuScale’s stock plunged, it laid off nearly a third of its workforce, and it was sued by its investors and investigated for investor fraud. Then its CEO sold off most of his stock shares.
"NuScale’s project is the latest in a long line of failed nuclear fantasies.
"Why should you care? A different nuclear company, #XEnergy, now in partnership with #AmazonCorp, wants to build and operate small modular #nuclear reactors [#SMRs] near the #ColumbiaRiver, 250 miles upriver from #PortlandOR. #BillGates’s darling, the #Natrium reactor in #Wyoming is also plowing ahead. Both proposals are raking in the Inflation Reduction Act and other taxpayer funded subsidies. The danger: Money and time wasted on these #FalseSolutions to the #ClimateCrisis divert public resources from #renewables, #EnergyEfficiency and other faster, more cost-efficient and safer ways to address the climate crisis.
"A recent study from the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis concluded that small modular nuclear reactors are still too expensive, too slow to build and too risky to respond to the climate crisis.
"While the nuclear industry tries to pass itself off as 'clean,' it is an extremely dirty technology, beginning with #UraniumMining and #UraniumMilling which decimates #IndigenousLands. Small modular nuclear reactors produce two to thirty times the radioactive waste of older nuclear designs, waste for which we have no safe, long-term disposal site. Any community that hosts a nuclear reactor will likely be saddled with its radioactive waste – forever. This harm falls disproportionately on #Indigenous and #LowIncome communities.
:For those of us downriver, X-Energy’s plans to build at the Hanford Nuclear Site on the Columbia flies in the face of reason, as it would add more nuclear waste to the country’s largest nuclear cleanup site.
"In #Oregon, we have a state moratorium on building nuclear reactors until there is a vote of the people and a national waste repository. Every few years, the nuclear industry attempts to overturn this law at the Oregon Legislature, but so far it has been unsuccessful. This August, Umatilla County Commissioners announced they’ll attempt another legislative effort to overturn the moratorium. Keeping this moratorium is wise, given the dangerous distraction posed by the false solution of small modular nuclear reactors. Let’s learn from the NuScale debacle and keep our focus on a just transition to a clean energy future–one in which nuclear power clearly has no place."

As #ExtremeHeat Bakes US, 160+ #Global Groups Demand 'Real' #ClimateAction
Reject #FalseSolutions, such as #NaturalGas, #MegaDams, #geoengineering, #bioenergy, forest offsets, #CarbonTrading schemes, #NuclearEnergy, biodiversity credits, and #CarbonCapture and storage.
Jessica Corbett
Jun 23, 2025Excerpt: " 'While #governments and #corporations push us deeper into #ClimateChaos, movements around the world are rising,' she noted. 'From every corner of the Earth, women leaders are coming together with solutions and strategies to defend our planet and our communities. We call on governments and financial institutions to heed their voices and ensure effective and equitable policies—from Bonn to Belém and beyond. We must rise boldly, because climate change is not waiting for politics. Our movements are not bending. We are not breaking. We are defining and building a healthy and just future for all.'
"The new call to action points out that 'last year, the world breached this threshold with global average temperatures exceeding 1.5ºC above preindustrial levels. This alarming milestone is not yet a permanent breach of the Paris agreement guardrail, which refers to long-term warming, although scientists predict that 2024 will be the first of a 20-year period reaching 1.5ºC warming.'
" 'Although the pathway is drastically narrowing, the International Energy Agency affirms that the goal of the Paris agreement is still attainable,' the publication continues. 'Scientists assert that limiting global warming to 1.5ºC will require significant and urgent action from governments and financial institutions.'
"Specifically, the coalition outlined 10 broad actions for governments and financial institutions, beginning with urging both the public and private sectors to end fossil fuel expansion and extraction, and to 'reject false solutions, such as natural gas, mega-dams, geoengineering, bioenergy, forest offsets, carbon trading schemes, nuclear energy, biodiversity credits, and carbon capture and storage.'
"The collective also called for accelerating a just transition, promoting women's leadership and gender equity, protecting the rights of #IndigenousPeoples, safeguarding #forests and #biodiversity, preserving oceans and freshwater, advancing #FoodSecurity and #sovereignty, implementing the #RightsOfNature, providing robust climate finance, and cutting off financial institutions' support for 'harmful projects and redirecting resources into climate solutions.' "

#CensoredNews: United Nations #COP16 #Biodiversity Conference in Colombia
October 22, 2024
"#CaseyCampHorinek, #Ponca, is at COP16 in Cali, Colombia today. "The Ponca Nation is on the ground here at COP16 in Colombia, trying to raise up the issue of #FalseSolutions to the climate conference, like #CarbonCredits and #BiodiversityCredits that are killing #nature.' She said #FossilFuels must be phased out.
"The #PoncaNation is among the nations of the world that have followed #Ecuador's lead and recognized the #RightsOfNature by law.
Casey Camp-Horinek, Ponca, spoke today on false solutions, including carbon credits which allow #corporations to continue and #pollute. 'Don't give them permission to murder.'"Read more:

#Diné Youth at #WorldWaterWeek in Sweden 2024
#BlackMesa youth travel to Stockholm, Sweden, for World Water Week to share the need to protect our water in the face of #FalseSolutions and #ClimateChange.
by Adrian Herder, Media/Community Organizer, #CensoredNews
[email protected]FLAGSTAFF, Arizona – "On Friday, August 23, 2024, members of #TóNizhóníÁní traveled to Stockholm, Sweden, for World Water Week 2024, an international leading conference on global water issues organized by the Stockholm International Water Institute. Earlier this year, Tó Nizhóní Ání was invited to attend World Water Week 2024 and asked to be on a panel on #GreenColonialism. The #Sámi national youth organization, #Sáminuorra, organized this panel. Given this panel's #Indigenous youth focus, Tó Nizhóní Ání took this opportunity to fund raise and send a delegation of Diné (#Navajo) youth from the Black Mesa region to represent and speak on this topic.
"During the panel on Green Colonialism, #JarenNumkena, Diné youth from Black Mesa, spoke on his upbringing as a farmer, the history of his family as a #coal-impacted community member, and the proposed projects on and near Black Mesa, such as the #BlackMesaPumpedStorageProject and the #HydrogenPipeline. As our nation moves to alternative forms of energy, we must do so in a way that does not use or impact our water on the #NavajoNation, which is why we need #solar and #wind energy."

We condemn Judge Du's approval of Thacker Pass Lithium Mine in Northern Nevada
This week, a federal court upheld the Bureau of Land Management's 2020 permit, allowing the Thacker Pass Lithium Mine to proceed in Northern Nevada.
Here is the response from People of Red Mountain:
"Federal Judge Miranda Du and her decision with the Thacker Pass Lithium Mine has just slithered into the malicious patterns of Americans law and a corporate-priority government.
People of color are not treated with respect and equality in United Corporations of America and capitalism is the #1 threat to our climate future.
Peehee Mu'huh will be added to the list of environmental and religious injustices to Indigenous people."
