DOE scrap metal

["Thomas J Savin " <tjsav@LYCOS.COM>]

Greetings everyone!



Sandy posted an article considering the sale of DOE scrap metal - mainly from Oak Ridge, Paducah, and Portsmith.  I believe the amount of radionuclides was similar to background.  Apparently the greens are against the sale of this scrap metal.  When are they going to show some consistancy.  Its much more energy efficient to recycle metals than to mine the ore (mine related acidification too!) extract the metal....etc.  Where is their logic? If they want to lower the amount of air polluting/global warming gases would it not be logical to recycle?
