I've been really disappointed by the politics around nuclear energy and renewables. The two should not be treated as opposing choices. In all likelihood, we need a diversified strategy. There are downsides to renewables as well (https://michaelshellenberger.substack.com/p/finally-they-admit-renewables-are https://michaelshellenberger.substack.com/p/finally-they-adm...), like peppering our lands and natural marine environments with solar panels or giant turbines. The fears around nuclear energy are overblown, particularly with the newest generation reactors. We need to move quickly to make them at least just a part of our overall energy strategy. The window is closing quickly, since all signs point to America and European nations losing the ability to construct such complex things entirely from the collapse of the nuclear industry.
