Sure, this should be part of the solution, but nuclear power doesn't cost nothing, it's either quite expensive or quite dangerous.
Also, this only answers the question of decarbonization of the electricity, which is maybe 25% of the problem. You still need to address transportation, heating, cooling, land use, meat consumption, etc. This is where people will need to change their ways of life, at least just a bit.
- redisman 5y ago> transportation, heating, cooling Cant you already do all these with electricity?
- mrpopo 5y agoWell, absolutely, and that's my original point. All the technology necessary to combat climate change is already there, but people aren't using it because it's marginally less convenient or more expensive.
