No matter which energy source you use, increasing energy use will eventually cause problems. With nuclear power, eventually you'll add so much waste heat added to the atmosphere that it will be worse than greenhouse gases: If we continue increasing energy consumption at current rates and cover it with nuclear power the ocean will boil in 400 years: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vRtA7STvH4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vRtA7STvH4 Obviously that's not meant to be a serious scenario. But it's illustrative. I don't see the problem of lifting everyone up while using less energy. We just gotta be smart about the solutions we make, rather than just brute-forcing it by using lots of energy. Like: I prefer to bike to work. That makes my life better. I also prefer living in a walkable/bikeable town. If I'm forced to drive a car the energy associated getting to work will be very high. If I can use an e-bike it's a tiny fraction, and I get to exercise without wasting time in a gym.
