    If you are worried about the cost of nuclear energy, you don’t give a shit about the environment.

      Would you like to elaborate? Renewables are a much better power source than nuclear in every single way that matters. They’re better for the environment, cheaper, lower emissions and are faster to commission. Every $1 spent on nuclear power is $1 stolen from renewables.

      That’s a really bad take. Funds should be focused where they’re most effective at transitioning to clean energy.
