Yeah, but as you know Germany, and German discussions do not encompass the whole world, so you can certainly bring me points from specific countries, France or US could be other ones, but they also have their own idiosyncrasies
But as I was saying, the core argument for Nuclear decommissioning is not to compare it to the absolute worst energy generation scheme that exists, by that metric then I could mention that using PeatBog for energy generation is "not that bad an idea" compared to Coal.... Which is of course, an awful idea by itself....
- armada651 5y ago> Yeah, but as you know Germany, and German discussions do not encompass the whole world I never pretended to be arguing for the entire world, the article is about closing existing nuclear power plants in Germany and my argument is limited to that. > But as I was saying, the core argument for Nuclear decommissioning is not to compare it to the absolute worst energy generation scheme that exists, by that metric then I could mention that using PeatBog for energy generation is "not that bad an idea" compared to Coal.... Which is of course, an awful idea by itself.... But we're not simply comparing it to coal because it's the worst energy generation scheme. We're comparing it to coal because that is what replaced nuclear last time Germany decommissioned its plants.
