    not true about plutonium, but there are certainly examples of elements that only exist in labs. the point is that we are just mixing things up. we dont really "create" anything.

    exactly. this is why supafans point about malaria is so relevant.

    if it is profitable then the free market will take care of it. but it isnt.

    What? This statement is infantile in its stupidity. You didnt know that Plutonium is essentially a man-made element and one of the most toxic materials on the planet (one pound of Pu dust could kill two million people). its simple, elementary information that a child knows, something most people know when they are ten years old and you are ignorant of! i mean i am stunned at your ignorance. i mean, you apparently didnt know what an element is. its...its unbelievable, monstrous, shattering ignorance.

    again, you are simply wrong again and plutonium exists in nature like i said. let me know how bad you feel after you do your googling.

    In nature, only two of 24 rare Plutonium isotopes occur and only in micro traces (one part per trillion in pitchblende). Plutonium is too reactive to occur as a pure metal in nature. All metallic plutonium (1500 metric tons) is man-made.

    to quote the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission . . . "Because plutonium occurs in nature in only minute amounts, it must be considered for all practical purposes a man-made element" [/quote]

    Poor thing..

    You are wrong, IPCC has claimed that natural cycles do not mean chit compared to human pollution. This kind of ignorance and denial of facts is making republicans glad they lost another lefty, I mean moderate.

    Your statement was . . .
    and its not like we are magically creating "toxins". the earth has things on it, and we move them around. we dont create or destroy anything.​

    This is absolute nonsense. Pure plutonium does not occur in nature. Moreover humans have created many toxins that do not appear in nature, Plutonium is only the worst of them.

    I meant nothing positive to show for it. I agree. Solutions like cap and tax will kill many more than tey save.
