because the technology transfer hasnt happened. I wish more people would be aware of this. This is true for both India and China - two of the fastest growing energy consumers in the world and both who have steadfastedly refused to sign pollution treaties. When you pull out 2 billion people out of abject poverty, you do not have the mandate for pollution. India has the unique position of granted an exception by the US Senate for nuclear technology transfer, but subsequent administrations have never done it (for multiple geopolitical/trade treaty reasons). There is public appetite for small reactors and power generation - especially in the fast growing smaller towns(which by definition means 3-5 million people in India). But unless the tech transfer happens - it will take India and China about 2 decades to catch up. All the while being the most polluting nations on earth. and nothing can be done about it.
