This is why we can't have nice things, the ecologists have prevented the solutions from the issues that legitimate their political existence.
In germany and in the U.S the shutdown of nuclear has been a blatant lobby too.
- pfdietz 4y agoNo, the reason we don't have reactors that recycle nuclear wastes is because they are economically ludicrous. Uranium is cheap, enrichment has become cheap, so there's no incentive to reprocess for plutonium the use of which would increase the cost of fueling a reactor.
- Krasnol 4y agoI've asked for sources on OPs conspiracy. Not for even more conspiracies.
- TrispusAttucks 4y agoWow. I guess energy markets competing is a conspiracy. Pretty low bar. Here you go: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31474041 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31474041 Dig away
- Krasnol 4y ago> Since fossil fuels campaigning against nuclear is a "conspiracy theory". Here are some threads to pull on. This is not what OP said. Also: those "sources" are all right from the nuclear circle jerk...lol
- TrispusAttucks 4y agoOkay. Enjoy your alternate reality.
