I agree with your viewpoint in general.
- SllX 5y agoNah I don’t think you can take linguistic shortcuts on this. As much as I’m a proponent of nuclear power, I’m a bigger proponent of repealing bad laws rather than accommodating them with poorly thought out extensions and calling nuclear something it’s not doesn’t sit well with me when it stands fine on its own merits. I think we’re agreeing directionally at least.

"Finland has joined France, Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic in lobbying the European Union to categorize nuclear power as sustainable." https://twitter.com/ShellenbergerMD/status/1447963506737704966 https://twitter.com/ShellenbergerMD/status/14479635067377049...
