      basically exactly the same situation as we’re in now

      You think if we take away 50 years of burning fossil fuels we’d be in “the same situation as we’re in now”?? Wtf are you smoking?

          As if it’s fucking green activists blocking nuclear and not the fossil fuel lobby

          It literally is, though I suspect the greens are the useful stooges of the fossil fuel propaganda.

              So I quoted this sentence:

              As if it’s fucking green activists blocking nuclear and not the fossil fuel lobby

              And then you started talking a bunch of blah blah about renewables, which I will note is NOT in that sentence.

              And you did not mention nuclear, which I will note is the entire SUBJECT of that sentence.

      No, because until we solve the storage issues with electricity. You need a reliable baseline power source in the grid. Solar has 0% cost effectiveness at night. Nuclear is 100 times more environmentally friendly than coal. Even with the long term waste storage issues.

        Hydroelectric plants, batteries, generation on site, wave power, geothermal, … There are lots of ways to reduce the need of non renewable energy.
