Moreover pretending that the words nuclear accident is not more dangerous than the worst wind turbine accident will be difficult.
- mpweiher 1y agoYou are making the very common "mistake" of comparing 1 nuclear accident with 1 wind turbine accident. And are completely missing that you need a LOT more wind turbines, and these have a lot more accidents. For example, wind turbine accidents killed 14 people just in one year, 2011. How many people were killed in the UK in nuclear accidents that year? That decade. Ladder accidents kill ~80 people per year in Germany. Google "avilability bias"
- natmaka 1y agoThe various estimations of "victims of nuclear" also neglect victims from such accidents. In 2011 2 workers died while working to build the new EPR in Flamanville, and aren't officially (nor AFAIK anywhere) counted as nuclear victims.
