    Our climate is more than just the air, water and temperature, it’s everything in our environment. If that happens to include excess radioactive materials that might cause cancer, is that not also part of your climate and habitat?

    But hey, let’s not worry about it. We need to harvest all the energy of the planet and wonder why it’s so damn hot…

      I think the confusion might come from a misunderstanding of what the word climate means. Climate is defined as the “long-term pattern of weather” in an area. Cancer isn’t really a product of bad climate, and this won’t create long term radioactive storms.
