And the problem with a traditional nuclear power plant like this is, you've got these rods that are clad in zirconium, and inside them are uranium dioxide fuel pellets.

Aluminum buffer action, aluminum hydroxide is what we think it is, uh, plus the barium carbonate, strontium titanate, strontium oxides, barium oxides, probably some aluminum oxides in there.

Let me talk about today's nuclear fuel, because that is common to both boiling water reactors, pressurized water reactors and CANDUs.

Uranium hexafluoride is a gas.

This isn't Volvos this is volcanoes.

And chemically separating things is like a bazillion times easier than isotopically separating it.

Platinum dioxide, right? No.

You hit the salt with fluorine gas, and what'll happen is... There's uranium tetrafluoride, four fluoride ions, and there's uranium hexafluoride, six fluoride ions.

Everyone take their vitamins this morning?

When it comes to supplements, should you be taking them?

Some, like aluminum oxide, tends to sequester the moisture.

We need to breathe.

Unlike nitrates and peroxides, it gives off no signature.

And that wasn't easy because poisons were everywhere.

We'll look at ocean warming.

A strand of hair that has titanium dioxide.

The dioxide's too hard to keep wet.

Thorium oxide for a catalyst bed.

This was a temperature of colossal magnitude.

And then above that, you're just adding more and more hydroxide.

So, fungi and mycelium sequester carbon dioxide in the form of calcium oxalates.

We stopped tilling, so that we could prevent greenhouse gasses from going into the air.

Where have essentially, you have an equal amount and very

You can't take a solid and fully mix it unless you turn it into a liquid or a gas.

A very simple example is this When the world was primarily plants, the environment, which had carbon dioxide and some oxygen in it when they first started,

So you can sit there and pound thorium with fluoride all you want. It's not going to change.

Trees give off oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide.

If you oxidise an alcohol you get an aldehyde but what do you get if you oxidise an aldehyde?

Do this in just a jet in a very simple way.

Ochre, iron oxide, charcoal. Oxy, stay with us.

And uranium 233 is being consumed but the neutrons from the fission are making new uranium 233.

Tropical rainforests produce oxygen and consume carbon dioxide.

The acid oxidises after the creature's death, completely neutralizing.

Each cylinder is about 10 percent ancient air, a pristine time capsule of greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide all unchanged from the day that snow formed and first fell.

Seaborg says, OK, well, maybe we can do the same thing with Thorium. Maybe we can expose it to neutrons, and we can make it into uranium 233.

Inert nitrogen, high concentration of carbon dioxide crystals, methane...

Makes the rocks crumble, and the first step in the generation of soil.

Now, as we breathe, we produce carbon dioxide, and that carbon dioxide needs to be scrubbed out of the system.

The botanical names are in front of you.

We inject our own aerosols into the atmosphere, and we have trace gases, and not just carbon dioxide it's methane, ozone, oxides of sulfur and nitrogen.

Yellowcake uranium, Mark.

And they changed the atmosphere.

In fact, what's being absorbed is something like 25 percent of our emissions, which then leads to acidification or lower alkalinity in oceans.

If you fracture it, you can look at the fact that it's nanostructured.

This is regularly several hundred parts per million.
