This is not a convincing argument. If things go wrong for nuclear stations, the consequences are incredibly high. I'm not sure there are many fields that can make the same claim. And oil is absolutely not one of them (bit of a weird attempt at trying to be authoritative). Also, aside from neatly skirting around Fukushima and Chernobyl, not one mention to the fact that most world leaders are brain dead and shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the awesome power of nuclear energy. Can we, humans, manage to pull this off? Absolutely, didn't need convincing about that. The author has failed to convince me that we, the humans alive today, are anywhere near competent to pull this off at scale. Or even that this shared competency is a challenge to overcome. "But the US has had nuclear power without incident for so long now" yeah and when the chips were down at the start of convincing they committed acts of piracy to secure PPE. I'm sure it will totally be different in the face of nuclear emergency. [0] www.bbc.com/news/world-52161995
