Are you saying war is a normal/regular operational situation for an energy plant?
Go and look up total number of deaths from either Chernobyl or Fukushima.
Hint: nuclear is one of the safest energy sources currently imaginable.
- goodpoint 4y ago...until you consider systemic risk including social unrest, terrorism, nuclear weapon proliferation, centralization of power...
- wiredfool 4y agoI’m drawing a blank on how many wars have been fought over oil.
- mirko22 4y agoWe have nuclear weapons for those… Nuclear power doesn’t necessarily ease weapon proliferation, weapons where there first! Wars are dangerous by default, our biggest issue with Ukraine war is definitely not the power plant but the war itself…
- dmitriid 4y agoBy 2021 there were 180 operable nuclear power reactors in Europe. 13 out of 27 EU countries have nuclear power. We live under the constant threat of nuclear terrorism and centralisation of power... wait we don't. As with all lists randomly pulled out of someone's behind, yours carries zero meaning.
