How can you list scarcity of uranium as an issue for nuclear, then advocate for hydro without mentioning the same?
There are only so many suitable locations for hydro, and the further down the list we go the worse the incremental environmental impact.
- jacquesm 9y agoTidal is hydro and has barely been tapped.
- fennecfoxen 9y agoTidal's problem is that it's low-density energy and has a low capital-to-extracted-power ratio. And that capital is sitting in salt water.
- reitzensteinm 9y agoMy intent was not to advocate for nuclear, just to push back at a one sided argument. You can make a compelling case for anything if you leave out inconvenient details.
