Harnessing nuclear energy is about more than just saving civilization from extinction via global warming (our more immediate and easily reversible issue, materially speaking).
It opens up the reaches of space.
People can talk all day about cost, dangers, this and that. E=mc^2 doesn’t care about fraudulent, man-made economics.
An educated populace is capable of harnessing infinite energy. Photons will never have the energy density of a high speed neutron.
Even if this planet were covered in solar panels, how much energy will it take to move moons or propel ships the size if cities?
Physics shares a pretty clear direction to save this planet and progress to new heights. It doesn’t need to be so complicated. Just because it’s hard, does not mean it’s wrong. We have the intellect. It will just take work.
