LLAW’s NUCLEAR ISSUES & COMMENTS, Sunday, (08/25/2024)
Sundays are now a day off for me, too, but I will, recognizing that “All Things Nuclear” don’t stop on weekends, continue to take the time to format the TODAY’S NUCLEAR WORLD’S NEWS section of this daily blog for you on both Saturday and Sunday to allow you to read the “best” information AI can find on a daily basis from all around the world, with nuclear news outlets from news organizations that you’ve never heard of, not just American sources, that are worthy of your attention.
Among the several really interesting headlines over the weekends, I will provide a link just below as the one I think may be the most important to you. This is the one for today:
