You seem to ignore the fact that existing trends were artificially manipulated to suppress the nuclear energy use.

- pfdietz 4y ago"The fact". I think not.
- Andrew_nenakhov 4y agoThere is an abundance of data, if one is willing to look. Just first links from DDG: "Has Russia Been Financing Western Environmentalism?" (2022) [1] "Putin Is Funding Green Groups to Discredit Natural Gas Fracking" (2017) [2] "German green group branded a Russian ‘puppet’ over Nord Stream II gas pipeline" (2021) [3] [1]: https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/18330/russia-funding-environmental-groups https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/18330/russia-funding-envi...

- pfdietz 4y agoThis is a load of conspiracy theoretic BS, starting from the nonsense position that environmental groups are the source of nuclear's failure.
- Andrew_nenakhov 4y agoYeah right, "Independent fact-checkers said the information is false". The greens in Germany have consistently worked on destroying Germany's nuclear energy generation, and now it is completely dependent on gas import from Russia, funding Putin's war with Ukraine.
- pfdietz 4y agoI can fully agree that green groups have opposed nuclear. I call bullshit on the absurd idea that the global failure of nuclear is due to these groups.
- Andrew_nenakhov 4y agoI can hardly call nuclear energy to be a 'global failure'. True, 'green' groups had some success with scaremongering people to be afraid of nuclear energy, but it is generating 10% of energy globally (projected to rise to 15% by 2030 [1] ), with much higher shares in developed countries. If anything, the Fukushima effect has finally weared out, and we'll see new plants constructed which were halted because of that scaremongering.

- pfdietz 4y agoWell, it obviously is a global failure. It exists in places where people can be forced to pay for it. There is not a single competitive energy market where merchant nuclear reactors have been built to compete in that market. That's because it's just too expensive. Sure, reactors have been built to exploit monopolies, and where political considerations trump economic ones. That's nothing to be proud of.
- Andrew_nenakhov 4y agoJust because you repeat it again and again, and use the word "obvious", nuclear power does not become a 'global failure'. I fail to see any arguments in your posts, just NUCLEAR BAD slogans.
- ncmncm 4y agoSee, this is why nobody trusts nuke advocates.
