      Little alternatives, other than boiling off all the fish in the river.

        Well, I’d say you get energy and bouillabaisse. That’s killing two birds fish with one stone! Clearly the advantages of nuclear energy everyone is talking about.

        Well that’s a bit of an exaggeration, I read somewhere (don’t know exactly so don’t pin me down on it) that the temperature difference due to the water coming out of the power plant is only about 0.2 degrees compared to the water upstream of the plant.

        What I meant by counterproductive is that shutting down an emissionless mode of energy production, which could have helped to slow down air and water temperatures worldwide (and ultimately in the same river as well) seems counterproductive.
