> reluctance to build more nukes, but Germany shutting down nukes that were already paid for and working seems crazy Is this statement about climate change, or nuclear safety, or a bit of both? At least for those worrying about safety, isn't this simply the wrong way round? New nuclear plants would have to be constructed to the latest safety standards, older ("paid-for") plants are the ones which were built in an era before them and have grandfathered-in approvals which might not be granted today.
