  1. We should keep the nuclear we have, but it makes zero sense to build more when solar and wind with storage backups are vastly less expensive.

  2. What I don’t like about nuclear power is the dramatic consequences for poor countries who sadly have uranium mines.

    Look at what’s happening in the african/France conflict.
