EMR—The Silent Killer of Modern Times
I. Introduction: A Crisis of Invisible Exposure Modern man-made non-ionising electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is the principal cause of most—if not all—contemporary chronic illness. This is not speculation. It is supported by decades of rigorous research, animal studies, occupational epidemiology, declassified government records, and a body of independent scientific work that Western institutions have systematically marginalised,…

The Chinese Thorium Programme: Building a New Fission Industry
By Jeremiah Josey 7 October 2026 China is turning Thorium from a geological resource into an industrial and engineering programme—and energy for their future. Their researchers have built and operated the world’s first Thorium-loaded Liquid Fission machine, demonstrated Thorium-to-uranium conversion inside an operating system, developed domestic alloys for high-temperature molten-salt service and is in advanced…

The LCOE Illusion: What 100% Wind and Solar Electricity Really Costs
The levelised cost of electricity, or LCOE, is one of the most frequently quoted numbers in energy debates. Wind can supposedly produce electricity for a few cents per kilowatt-hour. Solar can supposedly produce it for even less. Those figures are then compared with the retail price of electricity or with the cost of nuclear, gas,…

China Is Building the Nuclear Future
Famous climate researcher and speaker Bjorn Lomborg made a good point recently: China remains a fossil-fuel-powered industrial economy, just as the rest of the world does. But that is only half the story. The equally important story is the speed at which China is adding nuclear capacity and positioning itself across the entire advanced-nuclear technology…

Thorium: The Future That’s Already Written
Part One: The Scenario Imagine it is June 2036. Turkey has deployed its first commercial Liquid Fission reactor in partnership with Japan. Cost: USD 800,000 per megawatt installed. India has announced plans for 40 GW of Thorium capacity by 2040. Brazil is fast-tracking deployment in the Amazon basin—not out of environmental virtue, but because it’s…

The Vogtle Effect: Investor Flight and China’s Race to USD1,000/kW Reactors
Summary U.S. investor appetite for large nuclear fell sharply after Vogtle’s cost—USD 15,000 per installed KW—coupled with schedule failures, driven by lost on‑site generation skills, financing risk, and contingency inflation. China’s program, by contrast, uses volume, standardisation, domestic supply chains and state capital to drive large‑reactor costs toward and potentially below USD 1,000 per installed…

Fossil Fuels: Killing 10 Million Yearly While Raking in USD 6.7 Trillion – Profits Over People?
Authored by Jeremiah Josey, 29 December 2025 Burning fossil fuels claims nearly 10 million lives annually through air pollution, representing one in five global deaths from PM2.5 particles that trigger heart disease, strokes, COPD, and diabetes. Yet the industry pockets USD 6.7 trillion in yearly revenue, brazenly prioritising shareholder dividends over human lives in a…

Thorium Triumph: How China Is Shattering Myths and Powering the Future
Article by Jeremiah Josey, founder of The Thorium Network. Dated 13 December 2025 The website whatisnuclear.com/thorium-myths.html presents a series of arguments that attempts to cast doubt on the viability and advantages of Thorium-based Fission technology. We won’t dwell on the psychological tactics used—such as answering a different question to the headline “myth” or relying on…

The High Price of Keeping Nuclear Fission Energy Suppressed: How Fossil Fuels Bankroll Fear and Regulation
Author Jeremiah Josey, 4 September 2025 In 1969, the United States was surging ahead with nuclear fission power, flipping the switch on three new reactors a year to electrify millions of homes. Fission energy promised a cheap, reliable, and clean source of power, with a footprint as small as a few Central Parks combined. Fast…
