LETTERS and comments
This page provides links to letters and comments about the TREC concepts published in the
media. Unless the author is mentioned, letters and comments are from Gerry Wolff.
These letters and comments are some of the results of an online campaign to correct misleading information that is being published about nuclear power and to raise awareness of concentrating solar power at the same time. If you would like to help with this campaign, please get in touch.
For many of the comments, it is necessary to scroll down the page.
