Jellyfish Shut Down Nuclear Plant | UK News

from UK News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Jellyfish swarms caused France’s Gravelines nuclear plant to shut down three reactors—again—this time thanks to new early-warning systems and quick action by fishermen who helped clear the waterways before a full shutdown. Last year’s disaster led to upgrades like underwater cameras and collaboration with marine experts, which worked this time. Scientists link these increasingly frequent incidents to climate change and overfishing, while heatwaves also strain cooling systems across the country. Reactors are expected back online soon as cleanup wraps up. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
