A company designing potential catastrophes, without checking the most basic facts about the area and with no respect for all the other activities? Planning to build a nuclear plant in what is probably the most active seismic area on the Iberian peninsula (Last earthquakes registered in the area: 29 and 30 March 2022).
Yes. Not in my backyard.
Because sometimes, the plan is simply idiot and sometimes NIMBY is the correct choice.
We are doing really well forty years later with a clean ocean, a strong touristic sector (developed later, in the last two decades, so one of the last really wild areas remaining in the Mediterranean) and we have still a strong greenhouse agriculture sector. We don't need their pennies.
I hope this people had been be fired immediately after proposing the plan.
Would you buy tomatoes cultured near a central nuclear that "may not have been damaged" by an earthquake?. Would you pass your holidays dining fish and swimming a place that "probably is not leaking radioactivity to the sea"?. Most people would answer negatively.
Nuclear benefits don't matter when you have a better plan for the place. If the other activity brings you ten times more money without the risks, and without excluding the rest of the economic activities in that place, the decision is easy.
