According to Wikipedia[0], Canada is able to generate 16.6% of their electricity from 19 commercial reactors and hasn't really had any noteworthy accidents (at least nothing that compares to something like say, Deep Horizon. Canada seems like a good case study for safe and effective nuclear power. > Sure, the anti-nuclear movement did lead us to generally not go down a path that would have helped avert or at least reduce the climate crisis. But the climate crisis was directly caused by the discovery and subsequent use of fossil fuels, not the anti-nuclear movement. It sounds to me like you're describing a trolly problem scenario where the nuclear industry pulled the lever to only kill one person and not five but then the anti-nuclear activitists pulled the lever back to ensure that five people would die and not one. I get the impression from your comments on nuclear power that you are one of these anti-nuclear activists but you're experiencing some cognitive dissonance because you're realizing that the course of action that you support may actually have been the wrong one but can't quite admit it.
